Rainshadow Lops

Rainshadow Lops breeds Holland lop rabbits in Sequim, WA on the Olympic Peninsula near Seattle. The operation participates in regional rabbit shows and follows national breeder guidelines for routine health screening, record keeping, and genetic oversight. Each rabbit enjoys a clean, climate-controlled hutch and daily exercise in secure outdoor runs, with gentle handling beginning in the first days of life.

Socialization with family members and other animals helps foster calm, curious temperaments suited for both show and home settings. The farm sits on land once used for lavender cultivation, nodding to Sequim’s agricultural roots and offering a serene backdrop for observing herd dynamics. Inspired by a longstanding family tradition, Mariana Zelda draws on local agricultural knowledge to guide her breeding program. Offspring from select pairings have earned ribbons at county fairs and 4-H events, reflecting attention to structure and temperament.
