I have 2 bunnies in a shed. At the moment they are on newspaper/shavings with lots of hay on top. The amount of hay I throw away is huge. I am allowed 2 wheely bins per fortnight, but even that isn't enough by a long way.
I had tried them with fleeces (they also had 2 underbed storage boxes and a litter tray of hay) and that worked out really well waste-wise. One of the buns has callouses on his back paws, so I went back to newspaper/shavings/hay. Vet said they wouldn't be sore, they are white, skin is unbroken, no pink or red bits. I am trying to persevere with the hay as I feel it would be better for his paws. Would it be ok to go back to fleece or should I stick with the hay?
