Got Belgian Hares?
« on: May 02, 2021, 04:35:42 PM »
Greetings,
I've always been interested in the Belgian Hares.  By chance, does anybody here have a source for those?
Thanks as always,
Goshawk

I have friends who raise Belgian hares. They’re few and far between.  Are you looking for anything in particular? For show?

They’re not very common, even at the shows. I have a buddy who has a few of them. He breeds them and shows them. He lives out around Bremerton.

Thanks, I'll do some more digging.  Looking for a breeding project for the grandkids.

My buddy over near Bremerton would probably be able to get you set up if you're interested. He's got good quality animals.
