Huggable Holland Lops for Sale in Wisconsin
Blue-eyed Holland Lops for sale in Wisconsin, snowy Blue-Eyed Whites and blue-eyed kits in a whole range of Vienna colors, raised in Oklahoma and settling in from Lake Michigan to the Driftless hills.
A little lop with true blue eyes, the kind people ask about twice because they did not believe you the first time.
Rhythm & Bleu is an American Rabbit Breeders Association (ARBA) registered rabbitry in Northeast Oklahoma near Tulsa. We raise Blue-Eyed Whites and blue-eyed Vienna-marked kits in colorful coats, and a full pedigree travels with every kit.
Our rabbits are handled every day from the nest-box on. They are accustomed to being in the middle of busy family life with small children, they’re used to the hum of a vacuum, the clang of dishes being put away, the joyful screams of kids and everythignin between. Our bunnies come your way used to noise and people which makes them as a bunny can be. Wisconsin families bring one home by ground or by air, and pickup here is always free.
Holland Lops for Sale in Wisconsin, and What Makes Ours Different
Blue eyes are the uncommon part.
They come from the Vienna gene, which is recessive. Both parents have to carry it, only a share of any litter shows it, and getting there takes years of deliberate, well-documented pairings.
Our Holland Lops for sale in Wisconsin are pedigreed, raised in the middle of family life, and never short on attention. We breed for temperament first, then type, then color.

Getting home
Two ways home to Wisconsin
At around eight hundred miles, the Holland Lops for sale in Wisconsin from our rabbitry sit in a comfortable middle distance. Ground does most of the work, air is there for set dates, and pickup costs nothing but the drive for the road-trippers.
Ground transport
priced by the route
Transporters come north into Madison and Milwaukee, and carry on to Green Bay, La Crosse, and the central counties.
Southern Wisconsin comes together quickest; the north woods take a little more patience. Transporters keep fixed calendars, and the wait is simply for a planned trip to pass near your town. Pricing starts at $125. Booking the transporter is yours to arrange, so the trip stays in your hands. If you would ever like help finding one, just ask.
Door-to-door flight
we handle the booking
Where air earns its keep is certainty: one scheduled travel day. We set up the flight and handle the arrangements. We fly into Milwaukee, Madison, Green Bay, La Crosse, and Central Wisconsin, whichever sits closest to you. Routes do shift from time to time, so we confirm your airport together when you book.
The $650 covers everything, cargo ticket, airline-approved carrier, food and water, and the health certificate. Airlines open cargo bookings about two weeks ahead.
The paperwork
What Wisconsin requires
Wisconsin asks for one document: a Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI), and rabbits are named right in the household-pet rules. It applies however your bunny arrives, car, transporter, or plane. No permit, no tests.
You can arrange it yourself with one vet visit before travel, or:
Does all that feel a little overwhelming? No worries. Let us take care of the details for you. We’ll book the appointment and get everything lined up and in order for $100.
Wisconsin applies extra scrutiny to animals arriving from states with screwworm cases, and Oklahoma is not one of them. Oklahoma has never recorded a case of rabbit hemorrhagic disease. If your bunny flies, the certificate is already part of the $650.
The state’s own guidance lives on the DATCP animal movement page, worth a look if you like reading the rules firsthand.
Worth asking
Common questions from Wisconsin
Does my rabbit need a health certificate?
Yes, rabbits included, however the animal travels. Flying? Included in the $650. Ground or pickup? Book the vet yourself, or hand the whole errand to us for $100.
How long does ground transport take?
Twelve to thirteen hours of road, so once a driver is rolling your kit typically arrives within a day or two. The bigger variable is the driver’s route and when it runs near your part of Wisconsin, and the booking stays in your hands. If you would ever like help finding one, just ask.
Could we just drive down and pick up our bunny?
Absolutely, and a few families do exactly that. Pickup in person costs nothing but a day on the road, Route 66 runs practically past our door, and your bunny rides home in your own back seat.

The ups and downs
Owning a Holland Lop in Wisconsin
People talk about Wisconsin winters like a hardship. A Holland Lop would like a word. This is an animal wearing a permanent wool coat, and the state’s famous cold is closer to its natural setting than almost any American summer.
Cool weather is easy, comfortable rabbit weather. Add rabbit-savvy vets anchored by a veterinary school in Madison, and Wisconsin makes a wonderful home for a lop.
The catch arrives in July. Humidity presses harder on a rabbit than the thermometer admits, and winter water crocks freeze fast anywhere unheated.
Both cautions share one answer. Keep the lop indoors, where January is cozy and July is whatever the fan or the air conditioner says it is. An indoor Wisconsin rabbit gets the best of a beautiful state and none of its weather.
Rabbit-savvy care
Finding a good vet in Wisconsin
A bunny needs a veterinarian who works with rabbits often, and Wisconsin families have an unusually strong bench to pick from.
One honest caveat: I’m in Oklahoma and haven’t been through any of these waiting rooms myself. Call ahead, confirm they’re taking new rabbit patients, and trust your own read on whether the fit feels right.

Seasonal care
Caring for a Holland Lop through a Wisconsin year
Wisconsin gives a rabbit two very different tests, a humid stretch of high summer and a long, proper winter, with months of easy weather in between. Winter, a lop passes without studying. Summer is where the attention goes, and it is the humidity as much as the number on the thermometer.
A short list of habits carries a bunny comfortably from ice-out to first snow and back.
- Treat muggy days as hotter than they read, since damp air keeps a rabbit from shedding heat the way a dry day would.
- Bring out the frozen water bottles when July gets thick, and set them where the bunny can sprawl against the cool.
- Keep the rabbit’s space away from south-facing glass in summer and away from cold drafts and door gusts in winter.
- Watch water in the cold months, since bottles and crocks in any unheated space freeze quicker than you would guess.
- Expect a spectacular fall molt as the winter coat comes in, and keep the brush handy while it does.

A little Wisconsin history
The greatest rabbit trick on earth
In 1884, in the little river town of Baraboo, five brothers named Ringling staged their first circus performance and set off toward becoming the most famous name in show business. Baraboo stayed their home base for decades, wintering the whole spectacle, and the town still celebrates that legacy at Circus World today. Wisconsin, in other words, is where the Greatest Show on Earth grew up.
And what is the most famous animal act of all time? Not the elephants. It is the white rabbit pulled from a hat, the one trick every child on the planet knows. We think about that often, because the snow-white rabbit with an air of magic about it is precisely what we raise, and it is why our Holland Lops for sale in Wisconsin feel a little like a magic act of their own. Ours just comes with blue eyes, a pedigree, and no sleight of hand required. The wonder on a child’s face, though, is exactly the same.
