Amanda Hanegan

Amanda Hanegan, rabbit breeder in Lafayette, Louisiana, cares for her small herd in the Acadiana region near Baton Rouge. She has been breeding domestic rabbits for over a decade and follows standards set by national rabbit breeder associations to maintain health testing and pedigree records. She partners with local veterinarians for routine wellness exams and maintains thorough records to support each rabbit’s long-term health.

Her rabbits are housed in well-ventilated pens on family-owned property, with daily social interaction and a diet of timothy hay, fresh produce, and high-quality pellets. This approach emphasizes gentle handling from an early age and plenty of space for hopping and exploration.

Raised with attention to temperament as well as conformation, her litters tend to exhibit calm, friendly personalities. Commenters note the openness of Hanegan’s process and the even-tempered nature of her rabbits when they arrive in new homes.
