A Netherland Dwarf Rabbit from our house to your door in Kansas. That is the short version. The longer one: we are Arlen Rabbitry in Bakersfield, California, the ground run is done by a USDA certified pet transport service in a climate-controlled vehicle, and nothing we send is ever flown or shipped as cargo. Collection from Bakersfield is welcome any day you can get here. $250 for bucks and does alike.
The Kansas run, start to finish
Before. You pick your bunny and tell us your nearest town. We quote the transport for that address and give you a date, planned around the weather on the route. Nothing is paid before you know the number.
During. A USDA certified pet transport service takes it from here. Road the whole way in a climate-controlled vehicle, stopping regularly for water and a check. No flight, no cargo hold, no airline.
After. Your bunny is handed to you in person at your address, with the paperwork and everything they are going home with. You will have heard from us along the way.
Kansas: the timings
Two days is the floor for anywhere, and Kansas sits at 2 to 3 days because it is 1,300 to 1,600 miles of road from Bakersfield. That figure already includes the stops and the overnight breaks; it is not a straight-line estimate. Spring storms across the plains are the usual reason a date moves. Summer heat through the southern plains means an overnight leg.
Driving out instead? It is about 22 to 28 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 Netherland Dwarf to Kansas
Kansas is 1,300 to 1,600 miles from us, 2 to 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. A Netherland Dwarf is the easiest of the four to move. It travels in a small carrier, it eats little on the road, and it copes with a long journey better than the heavier breeds because there is simply less animal to keep cool.
Kansas weather, and this breed
Spring storms across the plains are the usual reason a date moves. Summer heat through the southern plains means an overnight leg.
Being small, a Netherland Dwarf sheds heat more efficiently than a Mini Lop, which makes summer travel less fraught. The short face is the offsetting factor though, so we still run the southern legs at night.

Raised indoors and handled daily. If one of these has gone by the time you write, ask and we will tell you honestly what is coming rather than take a deposit against a maybe.
Keeping a Netherland Dwarf in the Great Plains
The smallest of our four and the one most affected by a plains draught. Wind chill through a poorly sited pen will reach a 2lb rabbit long before it troubles a French Lop. Site it against an interior wall and the problem disappears entirely.
Size. 1.5 to 2.5 lb full grown, the smallest rabbit we raise. Care. The short face means dental alignment is worth watching properly: check the front teeth monthly and get any misalignment seen early. Otherwise low maintenance, with a short coat that needs almost nothing.
What it gets mistaken for. Confused with a young Holland Lop, because a Holland at eight weeks is about the adult size of a Netherland Dwarf. The ears settle it: Dwarfs stand upright, Hollands lop. Everything about the Netherland Dwarf.

Keeping a Netherland Dwarf in Kansas, month to month
The two things that catch Kansas owners out are the water supply in the cold months and the cooling in the hot ones, and both are cheap to solve before they matter rather than during.
Everything else is the same as it would be anywhere: unlimited timothy hay, a pellet ration measured rather than topped up, and fresh greens introduced slowly. What we feed and why.
