Mesh for hutches...

Thumper & Boo

Warren Scout
Hi all,

Just a quick question for those of you that built your own runs and hutches...

What mesh did you use? Any links would be great.

Many thanks!
 
I got a 30m roll of half inch weld mesh off ebay for about £40. I can't post links though because the seller doesn't have any for sale ATM.

Definitely get weld mesh rather than chicken wire because rabbits (and other animals!) can chew through chicken wire

Half inch square is best because rats, etc can't get through the holes.

The lower the gauge number, the thicker the wire, so look for around 16 gauge for rabbit runs
 
Thats aviary mesh what i got from B@Q it was alot cheaper than 54pound i think it was 26quid mine n it did a 5x5 run :)
 
wilkinson's sell rolls of 'cage mesh' :)

The Wilkos mesh is very good quality and cheap (£2.99 per roll I think), but unfortunately the rolls aren't very big (5ft x 2ft), so not much good for a run...would be ideal for a hutch though
