Its been lovely watching them today and letting them have the idependent choose of if they want to be the hutch or run :D, Molly took to it straight away and Sootie did it in his own time lol. I did have some disturbing dreams last night that I had gone to check on them and the pipe had come off:shock:, went to check them at 5am this morning lol.
 
looking good :D
I am very envious. I want to get my system ordered all the more now. just waiting for a sample of tunnel to make sure the hares will fit through:D
 
They must love it.

Is the run base meshed as they may did out if not. Also, it may be worth considering putting a second mesh panel around the Run as a Fox could easily get at a Bunny through the single mesh.

I am going to put the door lock on tonight to stop them going out of the hutch, had a sleepless night last night worrying about them.

Good idea :)

Do remember though, Foxes are about during the day too. So if a run is not secure enough for nightime use it is not secure enough for unsupervised daytime use either.

Not wishing to rain on your parade and it is lovely that your Rabbits now have the run-a-round. But I would hate you to loose them to a Fox. I have lost a Rabbit that way and it is utterly horrific :cry:
 
That looks great! Is the black tubing the same material as the green ones shown in the photo? I only ask because bought a load of green ones so the bunnies could run behind the sofa avoiding wires but Tokyo thought it'd much more fun to chew his way out :roll: If the black ones are different/more robust they'd be perfect to give them another hidey hole :wave:
