I have 2 groups of rabbits living in my summer house. One group of 2 and one group of 3. Each group has about 13ft x 8ft to run around in. They each have a hutch, pipes, pots and boxes to play with.
Now last summer I used to put them out on the grass and they used to dig holes. I think it was the mainly the female one. If she was neutered would she stop doing this? The males just scratch the surface but dont dig tunnels. I am still waiting for the lawn to recover.
Would it be cruel to just keep them in the summer house? The door is left open when it is nice (with a mesh stairgate so they dont get out) and windows are open all the time. When I've got the female done and the grass has recovered then I can put them out again - but I dont know when that will be. Maybe a month or two?
