New House & bed - UD pics of house added

I've just had this new house delivered & I think my rabbit must be tiny as it's advertised for dwarf buns - It seems huge in comparison to a lot of wooden houses I've seen (that should really be for gpigs) lol

The main thing is the entrance hole as it's larger than most houses.. & it's also quite deep - I can't wait to build it up & try it out :lol:

I've also got a new bunny bed.. it's also a lil large :lol:

Think my bun is spoilt LOL

The little house looks great. I was looking for something similar for Bluebell's run for the summer to act as a shelter. Like the hay rack inside it. Will you post some pics once you have built it up? Be interested to see the size in comparison to your bunny. Bluebell is a mini lop so she is quite small.

Sure

You noticed too that a lot of houses are too small for buns :lol:

He sure is spoilt!!

Lucky bun

hahah yup, but I daren't look @ my CC statement :lol:

That house is so cute.

neat little kennels

We found a neat little wooden 'hut' on short legs, with a lifty-uppy lid and a drop-down front door that doubles up as a ramp. I can't remember the brand, but I think it cost £26 when I bought it. I think I've seen it at £29 in the same pet place I got it. I can probably go and look for you next week if you want me too, but this week is too mad. It isn't done as a cutesy house though - but solid and decent.

That sounds like a good house, do you have any pics of it?

Pics of my existing house & new house

I can say that Phillip approves as he goes inside the new house & adores sitting on top of it.. & chewing it :roll: :lol:

It's a self build but is easy with wood glue & dowels.
I didn't think it would be very sturdy as it's made of fairly thin wood but once built it's solid & with the lid on is very sturdy.
The lid lifts right off but I might consider buying a couple of small hinges so I can just tilt it back to fill with straw.

Original house.. the doorway is small & Phillip 'squeezes' into it - he doesn't go inside very often: cost about £18.00


The new house.. bigger & deeper with a bigger doorway, removable roof & a hay rack (which you could leave out as it's self build).








Phillip giving his approval

Thanks. Looks good

You're welcome

I think Phillip is similar in size to a mini lop.. maybe a lil smaller - he weighs just over 2kg but needs to put on a bit more weight, I think he should be about 2.5 for his body size - hope that helps

If you're on FB I have an album of pet pics so you can get a better idea of Phillip's size in comparison to the house

I'm loving seeing and hearing all about Philip!
