Why choose a Bon Temps Bunny?
Choosing a rabbit breeder isn’t just about finding a bunny. It’s about finding the right start — a healthy, well-socialized rabbit raised with intention, knowledge, and long-term support.
At Bon Temps Ranch on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, we don’t just raise rabbits. We raise companions, show prospects, and future herd-quality animals with a foundation built on experience, education, and ethical breeding practices.
🏡 A Ranch Built on Experience, Not Trends
Bon Temps Ranch is not a hobby operation or casual breeding setup.
We bring decades of experience in animal science, veterinary medicine, education, and livestock breeding to every rabbitry decision we make.
Background in Animal Science (B.S. and M.S.)
Experience at LSU School of Veterinary Medicine
Years of hands-on veterinary clinic work
Former agriculture educator
Active involvement in ARBA standards and rabbit development
Every breeding pairing is planned with structure, purpose, and long-term improvement in mind.
🐰 Focused on Health, Structure, and Temperament
Our rabbits are selected with careful attention to:
Proper body type according to ARBA standards
Strong genetic health and consistency
Calm, manageable temperaments
Clean, well-maintained living conditions
Early handling and human interaction
We are intentional about the rabbits we produce. That means not every rabbit is bred — and not every rabbit is sold the same way.
🌊 Serving the Entire Mississippi Gulf Coast (and Beyond)
Bon Temps Ranch is proudly located on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, and we make it easy for families across the region to bring home their new bunny.
We offer free delivery to safe, public meeting locations directly off Interstate 10 along the entire Gulf Coast corridor.

Whether you are nearby or a few hours away, we help coordinate a safe, simple handoff that works for both sides.
🚗 Safe & Convenient Bunny Pickup
Instead of requiring long rural travel or complicated farm visits, we meet families at well-lit, public locations near interstate exits for convenience and safety.
This allows you to:
Avoid confusing rural directions
Meet during travel routes or errands
Coordinate flexible pickup timing when possible
Bring your bunny home safely and efficiently
We regularly work with families traveling from across Mississippi, Alabama, and Louisiana.
🎯 We Don’t Just Sell Rabbits — We Match Them
Every rabbit has a different purpose:
Some are ideal family pets
Some are strong 4-H or youth project rabbits
Some are show prospects
Some are better suited for brood programs
We help guide each buyer through selecting the right rabbit for their goals, experience level, and home environment.
That’s why we offer a structured selection process instead of random sales.
