What size shed do you keep yours in on a night?
I am pondering bonding both my groups of five into a group of 10.
Or would it be possible to leave shed open if they avairy style run is properly secure?

mine don't get locked in the shed. I don't see it as necessary, they are on concrete and even humans have a hard time getting in!

I have a 12x6ft dog kennel, which is technically a 6ftx4ft shed with 8ftx6ft aviary. I never shut them in at night.

I was told when I first joined this forum, if they are not safe at night then they are not safe during the day.

I have done everything I can think of to fox proof my guys, but if a determined fox wants to get in they they will, just look at some of the guys with house buns where foxes get into their houses!

My bunnies choose to sit in their runs in the cold and rain, even though they can get into their Wendy house whenever they want.

Bunnies are most active at dawn and dusk so, to me, it is important that they have access to their runs all the time so they can fulfil this.

I, too, have done everything I can to make their enclosures fox proof.
