B & B Farms

"Birds and Bunnies Farm"

We have been raising Mini Rex for about 5 years now on our farm in Lawrenceburg, KY.  We have a wide variety of colors including black, castor, broken, opal, and chocolate, with  broken and castor being our main focus.  We have also begun raising Jersey Woolies in self, broken, shaded and tan patterns, and have one French Lop, English Lop, and a Black Tan.

 We have many great lines bred into our Mini Rex, including Cresthill, SS, Iris Patch, Jones, Hidden Treasures (Hackett), Ezdaes, Redelman, Chilton's, and King to name a few. 

Our Jersey Wooly lines include King's, Rolling Hills, PP, Southland, Serapic Farms, Brian Hartzell's, and Erb's.  

Will received the Lop Club of America "Youth of the Year" award on February 14 at the Stonebelt RBA show.

Mona Berryhill from Texas began working on the Mini Rex breed when she won a pair of DWARF REX donated by Marylouise Cowan at the 1984 ARBA Convention in Orlando Florida. A little buck, ZORO, survived and paired with a small Lynx Rex doe named Cotton they produced a litter of 7. There were 3 does in this litter that were kept to become the foundation for the Mini Rex breed.

The Jersey Wooly was first introduced at the 1984 A.R.B.A.
Convention in Orlando, Florida by Bonnie Seeley of Highbridge, NJ. In
1988 at the A.R.B.A. Convention, in Madison, Wisconsin, it became a
recognized breed. Bonnie originally developed the breed in order to
produce a small pet rabbit with wool that was easy to care for. Text taken from the National Jersey Woolie website: http://www.njwrc.net/History.html  Please visit the National Website for more information on the history of this breed.

Along with rabbits, we also have poultry which we have been showing for 5 years.  We keep many different varieties of chickens, along with runner ducks, turkeys, and now peacocks!  We have recently added a few new ducks to our herd that we're excited to show and breed!  2009 should be another great year for us in poultry, as well as rabbits.
