When can neutered bunnies go back outside?

Young Bun
Hi,

Buttons was neutered yesterday and he is recovering well. The vets said that I could put him back outside in his hutch tomorrow if I wanted, but I was wondering if it wasn't too early for him to go back to straw bedding. He is currently snugging up on vet bed and newspaper. He's going for his check up on monday.

His appetite isn't back 100% but he is eating little and often, he does look to be drinking but I can't see many wee marks.

How long has anyone else waited to put their neutred bunny back outside?

Thanks
 
Thank you for that, I will keep him inside until after his check up on Monday.

One of his ears has come back all crusty as well, will that be from where they attached some sort of monitor or some other surgical thing. I didn't notice it till I brought him home.

Thank you again
