About Shiny Satins Rabbitry

Picture
Shiny Satins is a small hobbyist rabbitry run by our family in the beautiful Pacific Northwestern USA.

We raise and show satin and mini satin rabbits. Our goal is to develop lines with the best possible combination of temperament, conformation, fur and health. We love a challenge, and particularly enjoy working on varieties and breeds that are rare or need improvement.

We compete regularly in both ARBA shows and (for the kids) 4-H. We've loved getting to know other "rabbit people" through showing, and have been very impressed with the kindness and generosity of the people we have met. We are members of the ARBA and the American Satin Rabbit Breeder's Association (ASRBA).

At Shiny Satins Rabbitry, we strive for the utmost in quality of care for our rabbits. We enjoy enriching their lives with toys, treats, attention, and an exercise/play area.

Satin Rabbits

Siamese and broken siamese juniors
Our first love are the siamese and broken siamese satin varieties--this beautiful and challenging color is our favorite.

No matter the color, the sheen and softness of the satin coat gives satin rabbits extra brilliance and beauty.

The siamese variety is rather rare in this area, which makes it a bit more difficult to find competition at shows. We're hoping more people will become interested in raising this unique color of satin.

Satin rabbits are a meat and fur breed, and are in the 8.5 to 11.5 lbs. range when full-grown.

 

Mini Satin Rabbits

The mini satin is the ARBA's newest recognized breed of rabbit, and is currently considered a rare breed. They are beautiful, with the sheen and brilliance of the satin fur in a more compact package.

White was the first color approved as an official variety. In November 2009, 4 additional colors were accepted by the ARBA: siamese, red, opal and chinchilla. These can be shown as of February 2010. Many other colors are also being worked on. We have several colors of mini satins, including siamese and copper.

Mini satins should range in size from 3.25 to 4.75 lbs, with an ideal weight of 4 lbs.
