False Pedigrees

It has come to my attention yesterday that there are some false pedigrees floating around with some of our old stock on it! The rabbit's with these pedigrees where sold off Craigslist from a girl only known as Jamie, using the prefix J's on the pedigree. She sold withing the state of Montana, in the Missoula & Deer Lodge surrounding areas.
Please note that the Glacier Mini Lops prefix is GML and GML only! Not GM, GM's, GML's. Any variation other than GML should be a red flag! For Harlequins, the prefix is Glacier's, and no other variation other than that. If you have ANY rabbit on your pedigree with a variation of either that is NOT GML or Glacier's, feel free to inquire it's authenicy with me! (Especially if the animal was not purchased from me directly!)


It is understandable that in some cases, a typo or error can be made with imputing pedigrees into a software prograrm or handwritting them. However, these particular pedigrees are so off, it is safe to assume that the pedigree as a whole is all false.


These particular pedigress posted herein are infact false and information within has been verified false by several sources.




This situation also should serve as a reminder to do your research before you buy. Had the buyer of these two rabbits know simple breed information such as weights and coloration varieties a careful glance of the pedigree would have set off red flags! I know in some cases, the seller does not have the pedigree ready at the time of sale and offers to send it in the mail. Other times, some breeders request a deposit or full payment before you receive your pedigree. This does have both its upsides and downsides. In most cases it is always best to purchase a rabbit after seeing it in person. Although if you are unable to do so....ask for references, seek out those who have purchased from the same breeder. Expect a receipt or signed agreement in some way that will clearly describe what you purchased, from who, when and dates to expect your pedigree by if not available immediately.




You also may have noticed some changes to the website....after this sitautaion came to light, have removed the page in which you can quickly look up new registration and grand champion numbers to update your pedigrees. I have also gone through and edited/blacked out all ear numbers, registration numbers and grand champion numbers visible. I am not 100% positive where the information came from to create these two pedigrees, but I did not want to easily hand out more, free for them to use. If you would like updated information about a rabbit such as registration, grand championship number or to make sure your pedigree is accurate, you are more than welcome to email me to do so! If you by chance happen to have purchased a rabbit with these pedigrees or similiiar, please know they are false, and by continuing to use such pedigrees, you are just as liable as the person who created them to begin with. ​
