New Kit
Hi all, I've just joined - no rabbits myself but I have a friend moving in with me in a few months with two, a grey/white dwarf lop doe and a gorgeous little black netherland buck (I think!).
As I can't fit them in indoors beyond temporarily for winter, we're going to build an enormous aviary for them (gives me an excuse to get finches.... :lol: ). By enormous I'm talking about 15-20 feet long and around 12 feet wide. Big garden
Anyhoo, I digress... I'm in the middle of clearing trees, and need to know - is privet safe for rabbits? I have a 60ft long hedge of giant privet plants (~20ft high), and I'd like to save the branches for the aviary - for the birds mostly, but I've got so many they could be turned into bunny log cabins!
I've already been told they aren't safe for rats (I have 18 indoors, hence the lack of space - well, that and rabbit-eating dogs :shock: ) so I'm getting the feeling rabbits is a no-no too.
Thoughts anyone?
