Dig Box

Alicia

Archie and Molly have started digging in the garden. They dig when they run out of grass in the run, but I can't move them every time they eat all the run in their grass (it takes them about 2 days to eat a run full of grass) because otherwise there wouldn't be any grass in the garden for them to eat, so I wanted to put a digging box in the run for them, and I'm sorry this is a silly question, but I don't really know what I need. Like, what type of box? I was going to use a big plastic storage tub with big sides, so hopefully all the soil would stay in the box, but I heard a bad story on here about a rabbit chewing on plastic and it worried me a bit :? What else could I use? And should I just put soil/dirt in the box?
 
Ordinary dirt from the garden is fine. :D (it's what they'd be digging in if they were out ;))

I would use a plastic underbed storage box or something similar. Some rabbits may chew plastic (so you would need to keep a close eye on them and remove it if they do start to chew) but the majority of them don't bother with it all.
