Hi :wave:
One of my buns got hyperthermia last autumn because the weather was so mild and then we had a really cold snap. My buns had not got winter coats and were taken by surprise as was I!!! I am now trying to plan what to do this autumn and hope you might have some good ideas.
Anyway, my buns live in a shed on my patio and inside their shed they had a hutch on leg. I bought this for them to sleep in off the ground. Annoyingly they used the hutch for their toilet and slept underneath it! Silly buns! Anyway, we dont have the the hutch anymore as after 2 years they chewed the legs off and after replacing the legs a few times I decided to bin it and rethink my options.
I still have not decided what to have inside their shed. At the moment they just have 2 litter boxes as they spend qute a bit of time outside in their run. Anyway, I have noticed that they use one of the litter boxes as their toilet and they have used the other as their bed and they snuggle in it.
I can't decide what to do in terms of what to buy now for their shed. 1. another hutch on legs or something else.
My vet suggested a bale of hay which they can climb on, eat and burrow in.
Has anyone else used a hay bale and had good results? How do they burrow in it as I thought hay bales are packed really tightly?
Anyway, any advice greatly received.
Thanks :wave:
