Here you will see our siamese sables, smokes and rews, we are now on our third generation and presently doing
fourth generation matings.
We prefer the double maned variety but keep singles for breeding.
All the lion
lops from the sable line are named after various ships or the like.
Barrow Bunnies P.J. (Pinta Junior)
Genotype
aaBbcchlcDdE_
PJ is a medium siamese sable double maned young buck from Flying Cloud l and Pinta Senior.
He is
called PJ because as a baby he was the absolute spit of his father. He has held his mane well and has a fab coat, really
pleased with this lad. He is developing a nice sepia top colour as he matures too.
PJ has 8CC's, 21stars (plus
1 Lop Dip) 4 BoB's & 1 Best Lop.
D James: Nice body, ear and coat colour.
Proportional mane furnishings.
B Rideout: Nice skull, mane and ear drop. Neat body.
M Embry: Wealth
of mane. Good head and body. Still to clear a bit on sides.
S Whincup-Grindey: Good wealth of mane and bib.
Could be a bit clearer in body coat. Fairly nice body structure.
Barrow Bunnies Belgrano
Genotype
aaBbcchlcDDEE
Belgrano aka 'Bear' is a double maned medium siamese sable buck from Elizabeth (RIP) and
Pinta Senior.
He is a good all rounder, however his best qualities are his thick mane and general all round
chunkiness, like a little brick.
We hope he continues to mature well. He is now moulting to his adult coat and
it looks to be coming along really nicely.
'Bear' has 2CC, 4 stars and Best of Breed
(U5)
Mrs L Keith : Nice broad head, nice mane, ears and body.
B Rideout : Touch
on body, but good skull, muzzle and mane, just needs to clear coat.
Barrow Bunnies Enterprise
Genotype aaBBccddEe 
Enterprise is a single mane REW buck. He is a small compact lad with great type and coat but as with
a lot of single manes fails on bib. As he has progressed through his second adult moult a lot of his mane is returning and
is looking better than ever! He remains here as a valueable stud buck, tidying up double mane coats.
Enterprise
was poorly as a youngster and at one point we thought we were going to lose him. Which makes every day an added bonus to his
remarkable recovery.
Enterprise has a super temperament and loves a good head rub! He is such a sweet boy. A firm
favourite in Debs rabbitry.
Enterprise has 2 CC & 5 stars
2nd & 3rd Lop Challenge Adult
P Crabb: Nice coat and colour, good head and ears.
P Griffiths: Nice coat and ear drop.
Barrow Bunnies Mary
Genotype aaBbccDdEE
Mary is our medium siamese sable single maned doe. Although only a single she seems to have held her mane
quite well, she also has a beautiful coat that puts some of our mini lops to shame. Mary has lovely type, with a real compact
weight about her and strong muzzel.
She has been shown a handful of times as an under five
and always been placed highly in the lop challenges. In fact, it was a pleasure at a recent show to
watch several established fur and fancy exhibitors admiring her, saying they could quite easily take her home! Wondering if
we have a few convertee's to this lovely new breed?!
Alas, her
show days are over and she has entered our breeding programme.
New photo coming soon!
Mary has 3 CC's, 6 stars (U5)

Barrow Bunnies Savannah
Genotype
aaB_ccchldddE_
Barrow Bunnies Savannah is a double maned medium siamese smoke
brood doe. She excels in colour and has the most intense ruby glow to her eye. She is just finishing off to her adult
coat and has a pleasing amount of mane, coupled with a nice thick coat that rolls well and good set of shoulders. She is hopefully pregnant at the moment from which we would be expecting, smokes, rew's and blue points.
Her sire is Enterprise and her dam is Nina.
Pinta
Bred by Hengistbury Stud
Geneotype aaBbcchlcDdE?
Pinta is a double maned medium siamese sable buck. He is a short compact little
chap with a superb width to his shoulders, good head and ear carriage and an abundant mane and bib. Unfortunatly he has not
yet made it out to show, so remains here as a valueable stud buck that has
so far sired a Best Lop winner & two BoB winners and many others that have been placed highly in lop challenges.
Pictured here moulting to his adult coat.
Flying Cloud
FC is a rew double mane doe. For a long time we thought she was a teddy but her coat has cleared well
and is nice and thick. She has an abundant mane and bib. Cloud is a fab mum and has large litters that she cares for very
well. FC is mother and grandmother to a fair few of our lion lops.
This photo is a little out
of date, a new one will be forthcoming once we have a nice day.
Niña
Bred by Hengistbury Stud
Geneotype aaBBcchlcddEe
Nina is a single maned, medium siamese smoke brood doe. Who couldn't fall
in love with her colour? She has a super coat for a lion lop and nice wide crown. Nina has proved to be a wonderful mother,
producing quality young.
Pictured here as a young adult.
