Hi,
I have a spare patio area of 11' x 9' approx,and was just thinking of making it into a rabbit area with a 6' x 5' playshed.
im not sure of the plans yet so was wondering if you all could give me some clues as to how to do it,what i need and how many rabbits would be sufficiant for that space.
If you could post some pic's of your own outdoor set up's,that would be great!
thanx
**lexi** :D

Sounds fab - my buns have around 20 by 10 foot of patio to run around in. They really appreciate the room :)
How many buns have you got?

Wow .. quite a bunch then :)

If you use a shed/playhouse you could make it into two or more levels (depending on how high it is) and maybe some cardboard boxes etc they could play in? which means your buns will have even more room to run and play in :)

Some ppls bunny homes look well nifty, I just love the idea of having my two in one :D

Yep they keep me busy :D
So how many would you say was the maximum to keep in that area???
I would love to have them all together but obviously that isnt enough space for 5 :(
So i will have to think about which ones to pair up and put in there.
 
It all depends on their run time - if you had three or four smaller breeds (mini/dwarf etc) this would be around the minimum size really.. but if bigger breeds I would say two or three. But that's more my opinion :)
 
Here's my playhouse and run. My playhouse is only 4 x 4 though with a 6 x 4 run so smaller than what you have in mind. :)

awww these are great set ups...im hoping to put a corrugated roof up to give them a little more shelter and a small fenced area where they can run free...still in the planning process tho :?
