As some of you may know, I have a little wild bunny who I have hand reared since she was a baby. I had decided to keep her after I lost 2 then 3 of her brothers as I thought I could accomodate 2 bunnies.
Due to the lack of space and sloping in our garden their is only one place bunny palace can go and even this is going to be hard work as having to level out part of the garden plus move the fence slightly.
I was going to have an 8x5 shed only with mesh doors but o/h thinks a smaller shed and run would be better as thinks the big shed will block out the sun from the only part of garden which gets any!
Idealling he thinks a hutch is better but I liked the idea of a shed for the following reasons..
Better shelter for bunnies in winter
Plus more room for them to move about if bad weather outside
I could sit in shed with bunnies, especially important as Spudsey is a wild bun and at the moment I have a lovely bond with her which I don't want to lose. If shes in a hutch/run I can't sit in with her and will have to pick her up instead which she like other bunnies aren't keen on.
However having a hutch/run instead of a 6x4 shed and 4x4 run will mean a 10x4 run instead!!! Get it!? :lol:
Decisions Decisons, o/h has now cleared way for preparation I just need to make my mind up!
