Hope someone can offer some advice.
I have my two rabbits in an 8 by 6 half shed half aviary with a run attached to it and have built a sleeping area in the shed part which effictively looks like a hutch. They also have lots of levels etc to move around.
Now the problemthat I have is that while they are using a big litter tray they are also using their sleeping area as a toilet too and while it can be cleaned out fairly easily I would prefer them not to use it and wondered if they are actually sleeping in their at all (when its all locked up for the night I can't see!) .
The shed has been well insulated walls, floor and ceiling using a breathable membrane, kingspan insulation and then has been completed boarded, floor tiles too etc so I am sure its as warm as a can be so I just wondered what other people use as a sleeping area in sheds and what bedding you use.
Any advice welcome!
