I have recently found a company less than 5 minutes from my house which makes custom made hutches and kennels. I popped round this morning to have a look around and see what they have and if it's any good, although I'm not looking to buy but just wanted to be nosey lol.
So I pulled up outside and saw a line of hutches out the front, ranging from about 3ft to 6ft doubles. They look very good quality but the size of the small ones really concerned me even though the 3ft was labelled a guinea pig hutch it still seems far too small as a permanent home (in all honesty I do own a 3ft hutch, which I've had for many years in the attic since I had a guinea pig when I was little, it has been modified so it doesn't have a divider panel and only has 1 door so is always open and will be used as a base inside their 6x4ft shed).
I don't know the people that run in but joined their facebook page (not sure if I can share it here or not...) and had a look at their other products and there are some amazing things but there are still these little tiny hutches available...
So my question is how am I best approaching them to encourage them to not sell anything smaller than a 6x2x2 hutch? Or am I being a bit fussy as seen as the small ones are labelled as being for guinea pigs not rabbits? My worry is that they are very cheaply priced so people may just buy them for rabbits anyway.
