Important Change regarding Wait List

I want to inform anyone who is looking to purchase from our rabbitry of an important change:
We are no longer keeping a "wait list".  

Since establishing our rabbitry, I have always kept a wait list but have found it to, all too often, end up not being a good use of time. It takes a lot of time emailing folks on the wait list and waiting for responses and decisions.  Many on the wait list end up not purchasing.  I've had as many as 6 people on the wait list (turning others away) and only 1 or 2 actually ended up purchasing.  It's very unpredictable.

SO, going forward I will simply be keeping a "Notification List" rather than a wait list.  You can email at any time and request being put on the notification list. This simply means you will be notified by email when there are rabbits available to be reserved or for sale.

People on the notification list are not reserving a spot in line.  If you prefer to simply follow this site or our facebook page, and contact us when you see a rabbit available that you'd like to purchase, you may do so.  You do not have to be on the notification list to purchase.   It's simply an option available if you find it helpful.  Please note that our rabbitry always has the right to turn down a sale if we don't feel good about the fit.

Our email address for contacting us is: whitehavenwoodsrabbitry@gmail.com

I usually do not give our phone # as I prefer to do correspondence via email.

I check emails often! 

Policy added to site regarding Pedigree Names & Assigned Ear Numbers

The following policy has been added to our site in our purchasing information section.

I thought I would also post it here for those that are purchasing one of our show quality rabbits.

For rabbits from our pet quality line that are sold without a pedigree this does not apply.

Show Quality Pedigree Name & Assigned Ear Number Policy:
All of our rabbits sold with a pedigree will have been given a pedigree name that will begin with the prefix of "Whitehaven's" followed by a name we have given them. They will also have an ear number assigned to them on their pedigree certificate. The pedigree prefix, name, and assigned ear number cannot be changed. You may give the rabbit a nickname of whatever you like but this does not change the pedigree name that is to be used in showing or documentation in any breeding program.
Older rabbits we sell are usually already tattooed, younger rabbits may not be. If a rabbit has not been tattooed when it leaves our rabbitry and you tattoo it later it needs to be tattooed in the left ear with the ear number assigned on the pedigree. This keeps pedigrees accurate and eliminates confusion.
It is considered unethical to alter a rabbit's pedigree or to have it tattooed with a number different than what was assigned on the pedigree. The only thing that can be added to the pedigree certificate is the rabbit's Sr. weight if they were sold as a Junior and therefore the weight was not included.

If for any reason you think there was a mistake made on the pedigree certificate you must get written permission from Whitehaven Woods Rabbitry before making a correction.
We thank you in advance for respecting this policy.
