Hi
Can I have your opinions about what I should do for my outside buns? They are currently in a hutch in a shed with run attached with a flap for access during the day.
The shed and run are South East facing and so get a lot of sunshine through the day and the shed itself has started to get quite hot on a sunny day. We dont have a window that is open-able. They are obviously able to go in the run and clearly enjoy sunbathing and there is a bit of shade at one end if they need/want it.
Because of this I was thinking it is time to move the hutch out of the shed and attach the run directly to that. They would have loads of straw and tarpaulins down at night, this was fine for them last summer. Am just wondering if they are ready for this and if the weather is warm enough - I think there may be a couple of nights at 0 degrees coming next week, so now am wondering whether to hang off for a couple of weeks - then again there's 16s during the day...
What do you think? I'd be grateful for any thoughts. Thanks
Helen
PS The Hutch and run would be moved to a sheltered and shady position for the summer.
