| This charming little girl is my granddaughter, Jessica. We took this picture in the back yard at "the old house" in Sand Springs. Jessica was visiting us from Boston for Easter vacation. Much more fun to come to Oklahoma and swim than stay in Massachusetts and wear snowshoes. She is holding Butterscotch, a broken orange feed store doe I bought for her to play with and have for when she came back to visit in July. That following New Years Day, Butterscotch and Ashes, a darling Californian looking doe that turned out to be a buck, had 11 little babies. Seeing as it was so easy to breed rabbits, I decided we ought to raise a breed we could show and sell. Several phone calls later and I had my first pair of Hollands from Sharon Pellham of Sand Springs, and my second pair from Debbie Rae of Mounds. Both these ladies let me buy excellent rabbits for a beginner. I will always be grateful for their honesty and fairness. Debbie and I continue to sell and swap periodically with each other. While Sharon pretty much continues in the role of mentor. However, the Holland Habit for me can be directly traced to the little girl with the baby rabbit in this picture. Feel free to contact me for any questions you might have or bunnies I have for sale. Hoppylops@aol.com I am a proud member of the ARBA, HLRSC, Okie RBA and OK Hollands. |
