where to get a large rabbit hutch when a shed isnt an option

I want to start looking for a new hutch for my rabbits. They are currently in a two storey hutch but I don't think its big enough for them, even though their run is attached.

I want the biggest hutch possible. The Thistle Hall hutch at Pets at Home looks good (http://www.petsathome.com/invt/13200) but I don't really like shopping at pet shops that keep animals.

Does anyone know any online sources for large rabbit hutches?

By the way, I would have a shed but my friends' shed in the next street was set on fire. We've had clothes stolen from our washing line before so people can get into the garden somehow if they wanted to. Our garden backs onto a bus route with a path where a lot of people walk by and the shed would be placed at the back of the garden so I don't think it would be safe for them. Also I don't think they'd get as much attention as they do now if they were at the back of the garden, as they're on the patio next to the house at the moment.

Thanks

www.happyhutch.co.uk they have a shop on ebay too
http://stores.ebay.co.uk/The-Happyhutch-Company there's a 6 x 2 x2 with an attached 6 x4 run for £95 plus £15 p&p.
http://www.rehutches.com/hutches01.htm these look good but are very expensive.

yes rehutches are expensive I agree.... but they are more solid than solid... it takes 3 grown men just to lift the hutch an inch of the ground and they quality is next to none....
A lot of people have the happy hutches, I wouldnt go for them just ecause we have such a fox problem, I didnt want a lightish hutch.... but if you dont have a fox problem I would recommen them.

that 6' one with run underneath looks great would larger breeds ie: frenchy be able to negotiate the ladder though? :?

http://www.greenfieldsrescue.co.uk/hutches_forsale.asp Have a look at the one further down the page, it is huge. Or have a look at the 'for sale' section on http://www.doedropinn.co.uk/Pages/Main.htm that hutch is 7.5 feet long x 3.5 feet deep

wow that 7 1/2 foot one is great doesn't say how much it is though :?

I'm thinking of getting two to put some of my rabbits outside in the spring.

Oh wow!!!! The Burley is a goooorgeous hutch!!! I'd love one, it looks so sturdy

Have you tried local carpenters in your area? Sometimes it's actually cheaper to get them custom built than to buy off the shelf and that way you can specify style/size.

www.vbhutches.co.uk are advertised in Bunny Mad magazine and their hutches and runs look great

Happy Hutch have stopped using tongue and groove for hutches larger than 4ft, which personally I think is a mistake - surely it makes them thinner and lighter weight?

Wow thanks for the replies, I keep posting in forums and forgetting I've done it! The annoyingness of my rabbit hutch reminded me this time :lol:

I like that 6 foot one but wouldn't it be too small for three rabbits, even with that run? Maybe I'm not picturing the size right.

Thanks for the links, I'll have a look at them all my current hutch was made by a carpenter who used to advertise in my local paper, his number is still on the inside of my hutch so I might try his number even though my hutch is a few years old!

pets at home has a 6ftx3ft one which i am getting two of , one for holly, one for flopsy
