Freezing Cold hands- Please help me sort this out?

Ambience

I've had this problem ongoing because noone does a bunny glove that is warm and doesn't break.

So far I've tried- gloves under washing up gloves and latex gloves, but they snap.

Anything better than this out there? Thanks.

p.s It's minus 2 degrees- no wonder i feel like i had frost bite being out with just washing up gloves on.
 
I ended up getting several pairs of cheap fleece gloves (£1 a pair) at Asda / Tesco / pound shops and just rinsing them out every day after cleaning out hutches. They dry quickly if you leave them on a radiator so I didn't bother to wear them under rubber gloves this year. It was too cold to wash & scrub out trays / hutches as it was freezing instantly so I was just sweeping out.

I also looked at fishing gloves made of neoprene (Aldi / Lidl £6ish) so they are warm and waterproof, but have a couple of holes so fishermen can fold back a couple of fingers to sort out their hooks, so no good if doing a good scrub down.

Thanks- I'll have to get several pairs- i have some pairs that wont fit under rubber gloves either so they are pretty useless to me. Oh and the other thing- when i open hutch doors the rubber gloves catch and rip and i end up getting through loads and loads of gloves.
 
Just been out to scrape my car, fingers are like ice, didn't bother with gloves! :roll:

I hope that minus weather doesn't return- minus 2 is too much for me at the moment- i want to be warm :) Sorry about your fingers- i can totally relate to how it must feel to come in with freezing hands- i honestly thought I'd got frost bite earlier- then convinced myself that was impossible!
