Hi,
Recently heard a couple of stories about rabbits dieing outside in the cold winter weather.
My mum knew someone who's rabbit froze to death outside and the person who came to power wash our garden said he'd been to quite a few homes where peoples rabbits have frozen to death also.
My four rabbits, 2 recent ones have been outdoor buns and the other 2, well one was an outdoor bun and the other kept in a garage, not directly outside but still cold. The later 2 have been housed indoors the past 2 months though.
There new hutch and run im building tomorrow and covering the fronts with this heavy duty plastic.
Im getting a thermal lined hutch cover hand made which will take a few weeks and will keep them warm once received.
Would they be ok if i started putting them outside tomorrow? Theyve all experienced colder weather than this before, have started moulting recently though a bit.
The days have been 10-12°c and the nights about 5-7°c recently.
Thanks
