Why TAMUK Rabbits Are Ideal for Texas
Texas heat is no joke, and not all rabbits can handle it. That’s where TAMUK rabbits shine. Developed by Texas A&M–Kingsville (hence the name “TAMUK”), these rabbits were bred specifically to thrive in hot, humid climates like ours in East Texas.
They’re not just heat-tolerant—they’re also great meat rabbits, excellent pets, and solid breeders. Whether you’re a homesteader, a first-time rabbit owner, or just someone who loves fuzzy ears and twitchy noses, TAMUK rabbits are a perfect choice.

Our bunnies aren’t from a warehouse—they’re home-raised, hand-fed, and part of our daily farm life. We know each one by name (until they find their forever homes), and we make sure they’re socialized and healthy.
