Jesse is retired from the Show world, But he is our main herd buck. Jesse is what I like to call a triple threat; he's a good show quality rabbit, a good producer and a wonderful house pet!
We can never thank Kim & Danna Klicko (Holland Haven) enough for allowing us to obtain this wonderful, handsome guy. He's more than just a rabbit to us, he's part of the family. He has a excellent overall show type and the cherry on top is that he is a very sweet, calm, gentle & an affectionate natured guy, he has passed that wonderful personality trait on to his offspring. Our dream is that one day we will win a Best in Show with one of his offspring. Jesse is definitely the "King of the Castle". He spends his days with me in my home office, I couldn't image life without him. He has earned his retirement and deserves to live out his days spoiled and loved. |
Stars Hollow's Gr. Gh. Artie (3 Legs) (In Celtic the meaning of the name Artie is: Bear; rock.) Sire: Stars Hollow's Paddington Dam: Swade's Iris (2 legs) DOB 4.20.2021 Fox Valley Show 9/24/21 1st Place Jr Solid Buck Fox Valley Show 9/25/21 1st place Jr Solid Buck Tri County/Jefferson 10/9/2021 Show A 1st place SJB Best Opposite of Breed Best Opposite of Variety Packerland Show 1.22.2022 1st Place Sr. Solid Buck Best of Variety/Best of Breed |
Artie is thick limbed, with a nice crown, good topline and very nicely shaped, short, wide, thick ears. I would say that I wish his front limbs were a little shorter.

Klicko's Gr.Ch. Oliver (3 Legs) Broken Black Torte DOB 5/18/2019 Sire: Krolow's Wesson -13 Legs (Black Torte) Dam: Schwandt/Herioux Doe (Broken Black Torte) BOSV Fox Valley Show 9/28/2019 BOV Badger Show 3/13/2021 BOSV Lakeland Show 5/23/2021 BOSV Fox Valley Show 9/24/2021 They say a picture is worth a thousand words; well that would fit this guy. His head (24 Points) and body (32 Points) are so massive it's ridiculous just like his sire's, and there is NOT another rabbit that I have personally put my hands on that is more "full to the floor". He has a special bond with Faith, meaning he is HER rabbit and he lets me know that! His one fault is that his ears could use improving (10 Points), but when we look at him, it's just like WOW! That mug is priceless, and we feel with just the right lady friends, he will be able to create a new generation of show rabbits for us; as of right now he has produced Stars Hollow's Maple Sugar (3 legs). At a recent "fun" show where he won Best of Breed the judge made the comment that "he's built like a brick", well we won't argue! |
Despite his grumpy disposition; he seems to produce the sweetest temperment in his off spring, Example: Stubby & Maple sugar.

Klicko's Blue Moon (1 Leg)
Blue Point DOB 2/2/2019 Sire: Krolow's Wesson-13 Legs (Black Torte) Dam: Schwandt/Herioux Doe (Broken Black Torte) We are lucky enough to co-own Blue Moon with his breeders Kim & Danna Klicko (Holland Haven), he is bred the same as Oliver & Bonnie (Sable), just from a different litter. He also has several winning full siblings with multiple legs such as; Klickos Alaska & Klicko's Hip-Hop, and a few sisters as well. Blue Moon is one of the exceptions to the rules, many die hard breeders will not breed a rabbit that is a unshowable color, to avoid the trend continuing in their lines. Others breeders purposely try for exotic colors they can sell, not really trying to improve types. We believe TYPE is always 1st!!! Carefully selected ladies should result in as few unshowable colors in the future as possible, and he is worth the gamble. Besides, the once in a blue moon phrase refers to something extremely rare in occurrence. I think we all like looking up at a Blue Moon when it does happen, and we are just lucky enough to be able to look at ours everyday! Currently Blue Moon has NOT produced a single unshowable color for us. In fact he is the sire to Stars Hollow's Gr.Ch. Nita, the best show rabbit we have produced so far.... |
Unfortunately when a judge decided that Blue Moon was a unshowable color (Blue Point), his show career ended, but his type is so awesome we literally begged to use him to help us improve our show quality types, and give the ladies here a exotic choice!

Stars Hollow's Paddington
Black Torte DOB 2/14/2020 Sire: Klicko's Gr.Ch Jesse James-12 Legs Broken Black Torte Dam:Swade's Lila (Claire) Broken Black Torte What can we say about our Paddington that his pictures don't say for him? Our very 1st home grown buck with good bone, cute cheeks, perfectly shaped thick ears, & excellent short thick limbs, need I say more? Ok, he has a ear control issue & a tight crown that we find enduring, but not always a hit on the show tables, but he is a keeper. Unfortunately he did not get shown as a junior thanks to viruses floating around out there (human & rabbit). His parents are two of our favorite rabbits, so we hope he will make us all proud as a parts buck. He is proving extremely useful in the breeding program, we use him to balance slipped crowns, he helps add short thick limbs, and helping balance the broody girls! He is definitely passing on some nice traits to his offspring. This guy is only going to get thicker and wider until he hits his two year prime age. So far he has produced Stars Hollow's Artie-a show winning junior buck (3 legs) & Stars Hollow's Blueberry, a show winning doe (1 Leg) & her littermate brother Bjorn (3+ Legs) and a few others out there winning shows! |
Paddington as a junior
Those ears took 18 months to relax, but he was worth the wait!!! |
Gambler is a young senior Sable Point Buck that we are growing out. Time to just sit back and let him grow, while most likely not going to be a "Herd" buck, he will be useful in our small Sable point project. He is a absolute sweetheart! An easy poser, just a wonderful guy to have around the rabbitry. |

Eight Points Part Mark
Broken Black Pointes White Buck DOB 8.27.2021 Sire: Eight Points Louie Broken Pointed White Dam: Eight Points Myla Pointed White-Black After many discussions from experienced breeders', we were advised to obtain and add Pointed white and REW to our Sable Point project so that they would have less 'smut" in their coats. The issue was that we did not want to sacrifice type for color, and could not find a good fit. Well we have good friends at Blue Tree Rabbitry that found Eight Points Rabbitry and saw this guy being auctioned! We made the 12 hour round trip drive to pick him up and picked him up a girlfriend while we were there, I think they were worth the trip, as Faith adores them and we are excited to see what happened in the future. 
Klicko's Wyatt
Sire: Klicko's Blue Moon Dam: Klicko's Daphne DOB 6/5/2021 Wyatt is visiting with us from Holland Haven, we're hoping to expand our sable point project, he's a cute boy we hope will grow into a handsome adult like his sire! |
