Hi, and Welcome to the Novas Rex Rabbitry! I
am Liz, and have now raised Rabbits for about 13 years.
In the time I have raised rabbits I have had several different breeds,I started with a cross breed (I don't know what it was
crossed with, looking back though i am going to guess it was a cross between a holland lop and netherland dwarf or polish).
I have raised Rex and mini rex, I probably won't raise mini rex again--theirs too many and too much competition, it's so hard
to find a good one--I have also raised Holland lops, Netherland Dwarfs, Jersey Woolies, English Lops, Harlequins, New Zealands,
silver martens, and what I have now my Beatiful Standard chinchillas. They are truely my favorites and I will always have
them, no matter what other breeds I pick up on the way.

I started raising rabbits back in 1996 With my cross
and my sisters cross-Lucky and penny-lucky was broken black and penny was broken brown, probly tort (it was to long ago
to remember clearly) after them I got a holland lop named mis puppy, and 2 netherland dwarfs, zip and smokey. Back when
we lived in our old house in Marysville, WA. I then got my fisrt mini Rex a few years latter Named M'n'M because I thought
he looked like a red M'n'M, he was a caster buck, but as he matures he was very long, langthy and over wieght, and that when
i came up with the name of my Rabbitry, I was thinking about developing a new breed of rex, after my beloved M'n'M; when I
was thinking of a name for it, my dad suggested "The Novas Rex" and he said that it was Latin for "The New King", and I thought
it was a cool name and it just stuck even though I don't raise rex anymore, and my M'n'M is now gone.

I started raising rabbits when I was 8, I had always
wanted rabbits and always wanted alot. I am now pursueing a dental hygenist degree, and plan for that to be my main source
of income but still have my rabbits on the side. I am curently trying to get ahold of some continental giant rabbits-because
that would be awsome if I can get my hands on some of those. right now I curently have 9 Standard chinchilla, 1 silver martin,
and one Gold tipped chocolate New Zealand-I am also looking for a blue new zealand to try and breed out the gold tips and
just have a chocolate New Zealand, cuase that would be awsome. I am very excited to anounce that for the first time in 13
years of raising Rabbits I an planning on attending the ARBA national convention in November down in california, with my friend
Kristina of White Rose Rabbitry.
