So we are keeping one of the suprise litter we were graced with over the summer holidays courtesy of my OH class bunny (now sadly departed).
I have had bunnies as a child and always dressed their hutch with wood shavings/sawdust and a combination of hay and straw.
I gather that this is considered unhealthy. So assuming I dont do that, im not really sure what to provide in the way of furnishings. She has a nice new double deck hutch with the top a nice large enclosed 'house' and the bottom a run open to the ground so she can dig if she wants, or just nibble the grass.
At the moment she is in a smaller hutch with her brothers until they are split up in the next few days (bit of shame as they all seem to get on but thee you go) and she is used to the wood shavings/hay/straw combo as described above. Im pretty religous about cleaning out but they do seem to just pee and poop everywhere. My thoughts have been at least the beeding stops it getting on them and i change it regularly.
The new hutch has a plastic slide out tray as the main floor, so I guess my question is what should I put in there?
