Rabbit Sales Agreement

ALL buyers (whether purchasing a pet or breeder) MUST sign and agree to a Rabbit Sales Agreement. This agreement includes the following:

Description of Rabbit(s) to be purchased

This section will have their age, weight, date of pigk-up/delivery, date of birth, parents, physical description of the rabbit(s), price agreed upon, if a deposit was made and when it was made.

Health Guarentee

This section will tell you what we cover and what we don't.

Currently, CRC does NOT offer a health guarentee. Rabbits are deemed healthy and free of disease at the time they leave the barn. ALL SALES ARE FINAL. Buyer will go over rabbit(s) with seller BEFORE they leave the barn.

Quality Guarentee

This section will have the description of the quality of a perticular rabbit as follows:
