Welcome to Julia's Jewels Rabbitry.  I got my first rabbit as a birthday present when I turned 11 years old.  She was a Himalayan named Staria.  After she died, my mom found me a new rabbit that was for sale for Easter.  He was subsequently named Peanut Butter and I fell in love.  He was with me for almost 12 years.  After a few years of being involved with 4-H, I decided I wanted to have a purebred rabbit.  I fell in love with the American Fuzzy Lop breed.  My first fuzzy was Butterscotch.  She grew to weigh 5 lbs and had a hairy coat, but I loved her.  As time went on I bought and bred more fuzzies and then as I helped my friend with her rabbits I fell in love with my second breed:  Rhinelander.

In 2006, I was 24 and had been a rabbit owner for almost 13 years. I was starting my first year as a Masters student and I remembered how hard it was to maintain rabbits through college.  So I sold all of my stock except for few that I kept around so I could have an animal to show and the pets.  I graduate May 15, 2009, and I am very excited.  I have a plan for a building that will house my new stock of Fuzzy Lops, Rhinelanders, and a new breed:  the Thrianta. 

Please take a look around and enjoy!
