At Elizbar's Bunnies we raise Flemish Giants, English Angoras, Satin Angoras, Checkard Giants and Californians , and also gives homes to a few rescue rabbits.
We focus mainly on our Flemish Giants, which was our first breed. Our Flemish are not bred for size, but for their balance and color. We have found that a Judge would rather see a more balanced, nicely groomed animal in a good fur coat than a large, flabby, and unbalanced animal. We strive for length and depth of body, as well as increasing the bone on our Blues with our Blacks. We foccus mainly on true blacks or Blacks that only carry Black any or Blue in their pedigrees. We have won with our blacks BOSV, BOV BOS BOB RIS and BIS; with our Blues we have won BOSV, BOV BOS, BOB and RIS. We strive to produce quality, not quantity, having only a few litters a year when our girls are off the show table.
My English Angoras and my Satin Angoras are used for fiber. They get sheered 2-4 times a year. These guys have puppy like personalities and not one mean bone in their bodies. They make great pets/Show animals and fiber animals. These rabbits require a lot of grooming but are really fun to keep around. Angoras are a medium size breed, and are more wool than rabbit. They have anywhere from 3-7+ inches of wool on them.
In our English angoras we have both a strong BEW program which we focus on and a strong chocolate program. Our English Angoras have received BOSV, BOV, BOS, BOB and RIS.
Our Satin Angoras We have been focusing on our Chinchilla program in both Chocolate and black as well as our copper and chocolate agouti program.Our Satin Angoras have received BOSG,BOG, BOS and BOB. We are also working on getting our Satin noticed on the BIS table soon.
Our recently Added Checkered Giants and Californians are a small very select breeding program.
We aim to focus on well balanced type and markings on our Checkered Giants. Our program is mainly black focused with a few blues and we selectively breed for good disposition.Our Checkered's have won BOSV,BOV,BOS and BOB.
Our Californians are only a few select animals with only a few litters a year. The guys are breed for strong firm type. The tend to have great personalities and make great first pets. Our Cals have received BOS and BOB.
