Rabbit sale laws in the US

All breeders in the US are subject to the Animal Welfare Act which applies if you sell more than $500 of animals per year to a pet store or distributor. If so, then the breeder may need to be licensed and follow certain animal care and housing standards. There are many exemptions to the $500 rule though, and the law should read carefully to be sure whether they apply or not. See the USDA page on the Animal Welfare Act for more information.

Many states also have their own laws regarding the sale of rabbits including the age at which they may be sold and where they may be sold. Here we attempt to list all relevant laws for every state. Some states may not have any laws at all.
