I've been keeping my eye on the temperature at night everyday. Its expected to be minus 8 here in the midlands by Monday.
Should I bring my buns inside? I know I would have to keep them in for the winter then which will be difficult as we have a small house, and they hated it last year.
Its just that these temperatures are well below average. And in the wild a rabbits burrow will have a more or less constant temperature, thats how they survive, so im worried!!
Covered the run in plastic sheets to give extra cover, but they are covered in ice on the inside this morning and it was only -4 last night. the hutch is barracaded up to the eyeballs but temp will still drop a hell of a lot. Put loads of hay in there but they dont burrow into it, they just sit on top of it............
what do you reckon??
