Hi all, finally finished the rabbits new house and they are all moved in and having a great time.

First I painted the sections

with attached run (the puppy pen is normally across the garden to fence off the end which isn't bunny proof, will put it back like that soon)

Front with internal recycled front of hutch door which was modified

I know there are loads of piccies :shock:, but sometimes nice to see the process if you are thinking of doing one yourself :)
 
Thanks for sharing, looks fab :) I'm looking for idea's to do something similar. Without sounding really dim, can I ask why you put mesh around the inside and on the outside where the run is? Been meaning to ask someone but haven't got around to it :D

My boys like to chew which was one of the reasons to get the playhouse before the weather gets colder and before they chewed right out!
I put it on the outside too just where the attached run went on otherwise they would chew outside in too!

Brilliant work :thumb:



P.S Where did you get the wood from My dad wants to build a hutch :wave:

Thanks
Well most was recycled, I put their hutch inside a playhouse I bought, took the bottom floor and doors off. The inside door was the bottom doors off the hutch just built into a new door, I used weather treated batons for this from homebase, I sanded and then covered the inside of the door with mesh so they won't chew. I used an off-cut of lino for the floor, if you are building your own I recommend doing this as it makes it so easy to clean them out. I think the best wood is fir to build a hutch as rabbit friendly. I'm sure some one more knowledgeable will be able to confirm.
