hi , we have recently homed two rabbits and have quickly learnt the garden now belongs to them , not us anymore !! they have a double hutch with a permanent run attached , i have been letting them have free run of the garden for an about an hour a day , they absolutely love it . one side of the garden is slabbed , but the other side is , sorry was lawned which is the area we are looking to do something different with , we are discussing decking with shingled areas , my question is , is shingle ok and safe for rabbits ? are they any potenial problems i haven't thought of ? we will be leaving a small area of grass for them to still be able to enjoy digging ! also i would like to grow some pots of flowers , what would the rabbits enjoy ? i have already have some basil seeds to plant . i had some daffs and crocuses which were quickly removed !
also what is the ideal way to weather proof the hutch and run ? i am bodging with a very large rug and tarpaulin at the moment , but would like something a bit tidier and permanent , i have looked at hutch huggers , are they any good ? many thanks . julie , digger and knuckles .
