I have downgraded my 2 lops to german lops after weighing them but anyway if I also had a conti with them what size shed should I be looking at getting?

Are they going to have an attached run as well? I'd probably say 6 x 4 if they were going to have the whole shed, but then garden access as well.

I think I'd want double that at least, probably even more.

Yes they would have a permanent attached run and hoping to rabbit proof garden so they could have freerange time

I have two small/medium girls and a frenchie boy in an 8x6 shed and a similarly sized run and I think it's quite a good space for them.

If you know you've got buns that prefer to be out in their run maybe go for a smaller shed and a larger run, likewise if you have buns who prefer to be sheltered go for a larger shed with smaller run.

I wasn't sure about my Eli when we got him so we went for about half and half to hedge our bets but in hindsight I wish I'd gone for a smaller shed and larger run.

I'm getting a French lop from Tameside (where I got Eddie) if we can sort a bunny run, you and molly35 should get a bun from there too... we're going to end up needing a transit van for this bunny run :lol:
