About Hot Cross Buns
Hot Cross Buns Holland Lops is a small, home-based rabbitry shaped by daily life with rabbits, long-term commitment, and thoughtful care.
Our rabbits are raised indoors as part of our home and homestead, not in isolation and not as production animals. We believe how rabbits are raised matters just as much as where they eventually go, and we approach this work with care, attention, and a long view.
This is not a fast or volume-driven program. It is a steady one, built on experience, reflection, and responsibility.
What Matters Here
We focus first on temperament, health, and long-term outcomes.
Every rabbit here is known as an individual.
Placement is based on fit, not first-come requests.
Long-term wellbeing is always the priority.
Our breeding program is planned with care for our rabbits and with real life in mind. We work diligently to help educate our families and provide life-long support to our clients.
The Story Behind the Name
Our rabbitry name has its roots in a simple, joyful moment.
When we brought home our first Holland Lop, Plum Bun, we spent an evening tossing around as many silly, food-inspired name ideas as we could think of. Somewhere in that mix, Hot Cross Buns came up, and it stayed in our hearts.
Later, when we began breeding, the name still felt right. It held something playful, meaningful, and a contained a little bit of our faith.
Over time, it has come to represent both sides of this work. We do not take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the care of all the rabbits in our care quite seriously.
Where we are rooted...
We are located in Oberlin, Ohio, and serve families throughout Ohio and surrounding states.
All placements take place here, in person. We do not offer delivery or transport.
