Red Barn Farm Rabbitry

Red Barn Farm Rabbitry is a Champagne d’Argent rabbit breeder in Hutchinson, MN, McLeod County and southern Minnesota near Minneapolis. It is a member of the American Rabbit Breeders Association, and each rabbit receives regular veterinary care, health screening, and genetic testing.

Housed in a converted barn overlooking rolling fields, its rabbits enjoy daily exercise and early handling to build calm temperaments. Feed is sourced from organic grains grown on-site, and litters receive supervised free time on secure pastures to promote natural behaviors.

Orrin Yates maintains a small herd focused on the genetic traits prized in Champagne d’Argent, combining silver sheen with sound structure. Participation in local fairs and 4-H programs offers social enrichment, and the rabbits’ gentle nature shows in interactions with visitors. This care-oriented approach reflects a dedication to animal welfare and consistent breeding standards. Future plans include expanding pasture space for growing litters.
