Why Choose CJM?
More than a rabbit —
a lifetime companion.
Every bunny is intentionally bred, hand raised, and lovingly socialized to become a cherished member of your family.
01 — Quality & Integrity
A Foundation of Quality, Care, and Integrity
Choosing a rabbit is about more than finding the right color or markings — it's about choosing a breeder you can trust.
At CJM Legacy Rabbitry, every rabbit begins with thoughtful planning, responsible breeding, and hands-on care from the day it is born. We are dedicated to raising exceptional Holland Lops that exemplify the breed in both beauty and temperament while giving each rabbit the strongest possible start in life.
Whether you're welcoming a cherished family companion, searching for a promising show prospect, or adding to an established breeding program, we strive to produce rabbits that reflect the quality and care our rabbitry stands for.
02 — Early Development
Raised With Purpose From Day One
Every rabbit born at CJM Legacy Rabbitry is raised with individual attention from birth.
From their earliest days, our babies receive gentle daily handling and are cared for in a family environment where they become accustomed to regular human interaction, everyday household activity, and the routines of daily life.
These early experiences help foster confidence and curiosity while allowing each rabbit's unique personality to develop naturally.
03 — Family Socialization
A Family-Raised Beginning
Our rabbitry is an active part of our home, not a separate production facility.
Because our rabbits are regularly handled by children under adult supervision, they become familiar with gentle interaction from people of different ages. They are also raised around well-mannered household dogs, giving them early exposure to the sights and sounds common in many family homes.
While every rabbit is an individual and introductions to new environments should always be gradual, we believe thoughtful socialization during their early weeks helps prepare them for a successful transition to their new homes.
04 — Responsible Breeding
Thoughtfully Planned Breeding
Every breeding at CJM Legacy Rabbitry begins with a purpose.
We carefully evaluate each pairing with the goal of preserving and improving the Holland Lop breed by emphasizing:
- Excellent breed type
- Sound structure
- Friendly, confident temperaments
- Strong overall health
- Quality pedigrees
- Beautiful and intentional color genetics
Our focus is always on quality — not quantity. Each litter represents months of planning and a long-term commitment to the future of our breeding program.
05 — Maturity & Readiness
Ready Before They Leave
We believe rabbits should leave for their new homes only when they are truly ready.
Our rabbits remain with us until they are fully weaned, eating independently, and confidently thriving on their own. Before being made available, each rabbit is carefully evaluated for overall health, condition, temperament, and development.
By allowing every rabbit the time it needs to mature, we can confidently place healthy, well-started rabbits with their new families and fellow breeders.
06 — Transparent Support
Honest Guidance
Choosing the right rabbit is an important decision, and we're committed to helping you make it with confidence.
We're always happy to discuss:
- The strengths and characteristics of each rabbit
- Parent information and pedigrees, when available
- Temperament and personality
- Whether a rabbit may be best suited for a pet, show, or breeding home
- General rabbit care and husbandry
We believe honest communication and realistic expectations create the best experience for both our buyers and our rabbits.
07 — Lifetime Commitment
Our Commitment Doesn't End at Pickup
Whether this is your first rabbit or you've been raising rabbits for years, we're always happy to be a resource.
We're available to answer questions about nutrition, housing, grooming, genetics, breeding, showing, and general rabbit care whenever we can. We enjoy building lasting relationships with the families and breeders who choose rabbits from CJM Legacy Rabbitry and are always excited to see our rabbits thrive in their new homes.
