Mini Lop Rabbits for Sale in Tennessee
Mini Lops, 4.5 to 6.5 lb full grown, noticeably heavier than a Holland Lop, raised indoors in Bakersfield, California and delivered to Tennessee by USDA certified ground pet transport. $200 for bucks and does alike.
Every week somebody in Tennessee asks whether we can really get a bunny that far. We can, and this page sets out exactly how. We are Arlen Rabbitry in Bakersfield, California. The ground run is handled by a USDA certified pet transport service in a climate-controlled vehicle, and collection from us is always an option if you fancy the drive. $200 for bucks and does alike.
So how does a bunny actually get to Tennessee?
You tell us which one you want and roughly where in Tennessee you are. We come back with a price for your actual address rather than a figure off a chart, and a date chosen around what the route looks like that week rather than around the calendar.
From there it is a USDA certified pet transport service doing the ground leg. Climate-controlled vehicle, regular stops for water and a check, and a carrier with enough room to turn round and stretch out. Your bunny is never flown and never goes as cargo.
At the far end the transporter hands your bunny to you in person at your door, and you hear from us while the run is happening rather than only when it is finished.
Tennessee: the timings
Two days is the floor for anywhere, and Tennessee sits at 3 days because it is 1,900 to 2,200 miles of road from Bakersfield. That figure already includes the stops and the overnight breaks; it is not a straight-line estimate. Four clear seasons and a straightforward route. High summer through Memphis gets an adjusted window.
Driving out instead? It is about 33 to 38 hours at the wheel, two to three days each way with overnight stops. Worth it for a lot of people, because you get to handle the whole litter before you decide and your bunny travels home with you rather than with anybody else. There is no charge for collecting.
Getting a Mini Lop to Tennessee
Tennessee is 1,900 to 2,200 miles from us, 3 days on the road. The run is handled by a USDA certified pet transport service, in a climate-controlled vehicle with regular stops for water and a check. Your bunny goes by road the whole way: never flown, and never shipped as cargo.
What this breed's size means for the journey. At 4.5 to 6.5 lb a Mini Lop needs a larger carrier than a Holland and more airflow around it. Not a difficulty, just a bigger box and one more stop on a long run.
Tennessee weather, and this breed
Four clear seasons and a straightforward route. High summer through Memphis gets an adjusted window.
The denser body holds heat longer than a Holland Lop does, so a Mini Lop is the one we are most careful with on a summer run. Overnight travel from May onward, without exception.

Keeping a Mini Lop in the South
Of our four breeds this is the one we are most careful about sending into the Deep South. A denser body sheds heat slowly and Southern humidity removes the mechanism it would use. It is entirely doable with air conditioning and it is not doable without. We will say that plainly before you commit rather than after.
Size. 4.5 to 6.5 lb full grown, noticeably heavier than a Holland Lop. Care. The heavier body means nails wear less and need cutting more often, roughly monthly. Watch the weight: a Mini Lop will happily eat past what it needs, and an overweight rabbit cannot groom its own back end properly, which causes real problems.
What it gets mistaken for. Frequently sold as a Holland Lop by people who do not know the difference, and the two are not interchangeable: a Mini Lop is roughly twice the weight. Ask for the adult weight of both parents. Everything about the Mini Lop.

What a Mini Lop actually costs in the first year
The rabbit is the cheapest part. Housing, a spay or neuter, hay by the bale, pellets and an annual vet visit run well past the purchase price, and Tennessee buyers should add the delivery on top of that.
