A FEW OF SHAMROCK RABBITS NOTABLE PAST BUCKS :

MONTY.
Monty was Shamrock's first buck when the rabbitry started in 2009. He was a friendly, Fawn colored buck that was ultimately sold as a pet to some great folks in Big Timber, Montana. Monty is featured on Shamrock's business card.

Monty wasn't show quality but had a great disposition as a pet!

EUGENE was Shamrock Rabbit's first truly show buck, purchased at a rabbit show in Powell, WY from the Ormonds. Eugene was a friendly buck, sired many litters but died relatively young.  Admittedly, we overpaid for Eugene but he was a memorable buck for his behavior..... he was the first rabbit I ever house trained, he was the first rabbit that ever licked me and he liked to hop into my lap while watching TV and then hop back to the floor when he was good and ready. Eugene was originally named Blitzen, as he was born on Christmas Day 2009. I changed his name to Eugene since my father Eugene died on that day. Eugene, the Holland Lop, died on March 21, 2013.

 GEAR UP, one my my best bucks was a broken tort buck. He was purchased from a Wyoming breeder. He was out of FM Ringo, a very fine Holland buck. Gear Up sired many litters for us here at Shamrock Rabbits. He is featured at my Facebook group photo. Gear Up was born on December 12, 2009 and died on July 14, 2014.  GearUp had a solid head, nice teaspoons ears and a petty compact body. He had a well-defined but slightly slipped crown. GearUp had two legs.

​
NIGEL, a SablePoint, was out of a couple of Shamrock's finer rabbits, FM GearUp and FM Duchess. He was sold as a kit to Judy Labar from Wibaux County and then Shamrock got him back through a trade.

Nigel had a great pedigree! From his sire side were:
FM Gearup, his sire, had 2 legs; FM Ringo, his grandsire, had multiple legs; FM Mango, his granddam, had 2 legs; Ormond's Carter, his great-grandsire, had 5 legs, and FM Casper, another great-grandsire, had 9 legs.

On Nigel's dam side were:
Nigel's dam was FM Duchess with 3 legs; Ormond's Carter, was his grandsire on his dam side; KK Eve, his granddam, had 2 legs; KK Baron, his great-grandsire, had 13 legs; and KK Curio had 4 legs. ​

PictureGIZMO, blue tort buck.
 GIZMO, was purchased from a Montana breeder in November 2018. He just sired his first successful litter with          Shamrock Rabbits on January 11th, Penelope being that litter's dam. Gizmo died on 11/1/2019.

   Blue tort is a rare dilute color. Gizmo is a smaller, friendly buck who should do well with our         
   Holland Lop does.

   Gizmo has the following notable rabbits in his pedigree, starting on the sire side:
  •     * Lund Lops' O'Maley was his great-grandsire and Grand Champion with 3 legs,
  •     * Sibling's Reese was his great-granddam and Grand Champion with 6 legs, and
  •     * Sibling's Dasie was his great-granddam with 1 leg.

   On his dam side, Gizmo has the following notable rabbits in his background:
   * SM's Bently was his great-grandsire with 4 legs and
   * Bunny Hutch's Cobalt was also his great-grandsire with 2 legs.

JIMMY BUFFETT is a Broken Black Otter buck. Born at Shamrock rabbits in February of 2014. 

The Broken Black Otter is a rare color.  Also, Jimmy B. has nice teaspoon ears, poses well, and has a good crown and body.

Jimmy B. has the following notable rabbits in his pedigree, starting on the sire side:
  • Blue Storm's Louis was his grandsire and a Grand Champion, as well.

And, on his dam side (mother):
  • HIs great-granddam, FM Jeanie had 1 leg.

Picture

WESLEY, a broken Sablepoint buck. Wesley is descended from Nigel and Gear-Up. A very solid buck, who likes the does.  Wesley has been our "go to" buck recently. The addition of Gizmo and Nemo to Shamrock's herd will give Wesley a rest, as well as genetic diversity to our herd.

​Wesley's pedigree features the following notable rabbits, first on the sire side:
  • *FM Gear Up, his grand-sire and featured above here on this page, had two legs,
  • *FM Duchess, his grand-dam had 3 legs,
  • *Great-grand sires and dams with legs on his sire side were FM Ringo, FM Mango, Ormond's Carter and KK Eve.
  • On Wesley's dam side. FM Gear Up was also his great-grandsire.   

.....AND OTHER BUCKS FROM OTHER BREEDS:

Picture
GROUCHO, a blue Holland/Havana buck ( a Holland Lop / Havana cross) has a good disposition. We kept GROUCHO in the herd due to his small size and nice color to sire kits that are a more inexpensive option for some of our customers, looking for a nice pet without a pedigree.  

Watch for a new photo !

POOH BEAR, Lion Head buck, donated to Shamrock Rabbits in early 2018, by some folks moving to New Mexico.

Pooh Bear has a great disposition and has sired several nice Lion Lop litters for us.

The Lionhead breed is very new. It has only been recognized by ARBA (the American Rabbit Breeder's Association) since 2013, according to Wikipedia.
