Bunny sand pit substrate

Hello

Thinking of getting my bunny a sand pit so he can dig. Could i use planting soil as a substrate and mix some straw in?

Any ideas/help would be appreciated, i'm a first time bunny owner




Thank you

Mine have been digging snow today

I have an old pot sink in the garden that I fill with a grow bag, Twinkle spends ages flicking it all over the patio for me to sweep up:lol: In the wild they would dig soil so Ive always used a growbag, cheap and cheerful. They dont eat it they just dig.

Only problem is one of the cats likes it too, she burys and digs, ewwwww, the bunnies dont seem to mind

Thanks guys

Frosty and Snowflake have ripped up newspaper in a large metal container (they just weed in soil) Mottle and Peaches have soil. Mottle ignores it but Peaches loves to dig. She is my only doe (2 more coming soon wooo wooo) so that could be why... I used earth from the garden. Good luck :wave:
