Vermont is a long way from Bakersfield, and it has never once been the reason a family went without. We are Arlen Rabbitry.

If you would rather make the trip and pick your own, our door is open. $200 for bucks and does alike.
How delivery to Vermont works
- Tell us which bunny and whereabouts you are. The one you have your eye on, and your nearest town in Vermont.
- We price the run for your address. Quoted for where you actually live, and you get the figure before you commit to anything.
- We agree a date around the weather. Set by what the route looks like rather than by the calendar.
- Your bunny travels by road, climate controlled. Regular stops for water and a check, in a carrier with room to turn round. Never flown, never cargo.
- It is handed to you in person. Straight from the transporter's hands to yours, at your address.
- You hear from us on the way. Updates while it is happening, not a message once it is done.
How long will I be waiting?
From two days. The Vermont run is 2,800 to 3,100 miles and takes 4 days, counting the water stops and the overnight breaks that any decent transporter builds in. Cold suits a rabbit. Mountain roads in a February storm do not, so winter dates are planned around the forecast.
And if the drive appeals more than the wait, Bakersfield is about 48 to 53 hours from Vermont, which most people split as two to three days each way with overnight stops. Come and collect, meet the litter, take your time choosing. It costs nothing but the fuel.
Getting a Mini Lop to Vermont
Vermont is 2,800 to 3,100 miles from us, 4 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.
Vermont weather, and this breed
Cold suits a rabbit. Mountain roads in a February storm do not, so winter dates are planned around the forecast.
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 New England
A heavier rabbit with a good coat is well suited to a New England winter, and the Mini Lop is the one of our four we worry about least in a Vermont February. Watch the water rather than the temperature: an unheated mudroom will freeze a bottle overnight, and a rabbit this size drinks more than people expect.
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.
The other three breeds, also delivered to Vermont
Same journey, same price, different rabbit. Worth comparing before the distance matters.
- Holland Lops for sale in Vermont, about 2 to 4 lb full grown
- Netherland Dwarfs for sale in Vermont, 1.5 to 2.5 lb full grown
- French Lops for sale in Vermont, 10 lb and up full grown
Is a Mini Lop right for your household?
Worth settling before the distance and the delivery. The steadiest of the four in our experience, and the one we suggest to somebody who wants a rabbit that will sit still and be handled. The extra weight makes them feel solid rather than delicate.
If that does not describe your household, say so and we will tell you which of the four would suit better. Sometimes the answer is none of them, and that is a better outcome than a rabbit in the wrong home in Vermont.
