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 (7-Legs) (In Celtic the meaning of the name Artie is: Bear; rock.)

Artie is not perfect, but he has some really nice attributes that make us want to keep him around.
*He has the BIGGEST head in the entire herd, but we wish he crown wasn't slipped. *His ears are short, wide and thick and balance with his head. *His body is massive and his bones are thick. *His chest could be wider-which is something we have to work on in most of our bucks. *His front limbs could be a little shorter/ankles stronger (his weakest traits) *Notice he is the only 2nd Generation buck that we have kept to date-that should tell you how picky we are about our herd bucks. We have sold bucks that go on to win multiple legs for others, but as we learn and grow, so does what we look for a herd buck. |

Stars Hollow's Paddington (1 leg)
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. Paddy 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 (15+ Legs), Kilcko's Pinata (3 legs) and quite a few others out there winning shows for us as well as others. Due to Circumstances we will NO LONGER offer any bucks off Paddington except as Pets. If they are good enough to grow out, they stay with us or friends. |
Paddington as a junior
Those ears took 18 months to relax, but he was worth the wait!!! |
Stars Hollow's Gambler Sable Point Buck (2 Legs) Between the Lakes Show B.O.S/B.O.V 7/11/2021 Fox Valley Show 9/24/2021 BOV/BOB DOB 10.21.2020 Sire: Klicko's Gr.Ch.Jesse (12 Legs) Broken Black Torte Dam: Klicko's Bonnie (Sable) Smut be damned, this boy's Head and Body rock! Gambler has matured into a really nice buck that i thought would only be used for the shaded project, but he turned out much better than we thought and gets used for more does these days. He is a absolute sweetheart! An easy poser, just a wonderful guy to have around the rabbitry. We only wish his front limbs were thick like his half brother's Paddington's. |

Sire: Klicko's Blue Moon (Blue Point) Dam: Klicko's Daphne (Black Torte) DOB 6/5/2021 Wyatt is from Holland Haven, we're hoping to expand our sable point project, he's a handsome buck like his sire! Wyatt is the sable point version of Paddington, short, thick and wide, but smaller in overall stature than Gambler. |

We are very happy to welcome this guy to the hers, his pictures do not do him justice, his head is massive, we love the short round, thick ears, his wide body and heavy bone. He was retired due to any eye injury, but as long as he can produce nice kits, it's not a problem for us!!
*So far Adley (Alastor) is making some really cute babies for us, and we'll be showing his 1st group of juniors

Kilcko's Gr. CH Reno (9 Legs) Black Torte
DOB 3/6/2021 Sire: Kilcko's Alaska (25 Legs) Broken Black Torte Dam:Kilcko's Hope (2 Legs) Black Torte We are so excited to have Reno retire with us and our herd (the does are especially happy, maybe not so much as the bucks-LOL) We have a long standing friendship with Holland Haven, going back to our 1st (and still the best) herd buck and 1st show Gr. Ch, Jesse. Reno's sire is a half-brother to Jesse and Reno's dam is off Kilcko's Hip-Hop (25+legs) who at 4/5 years old was #2 Solid Senior Buck at 2023's Holland Lop Nationals out of 100's of senior solid bucks from around the country. Words cannot express our gratitude for Holland Haven's help, guidance, mentorship and friendship through out the years and we only hope she is proud of what we have accomplished with her help and lines of beautiful rabbits she works so hard on. |

Kane is a happy little buck. Not as massive as some the more mature guys here, but he is still growing and holding his own. What he lacks in size, he makes up for in personality-always sweet, easy going and character to spare! He won Faith's heart quickly after coming to stay with us, and he enjoys the show table.
