At the moment the buns just sleep anywhere, they have a small open hutch that I bought for a bedroom but they dont use it. I want them to be warm for the winter x
 
One of my pairs have a little Trixie Natura house, but they are newly together and one sleeps it in, one on top of it on a blanket at the moment. When the girl, Sweetie was in there with Alfie they both slept on top of it.

The other pair are in a kennel/run and have a cardboard box and blanket at the moment, but they have a bale of hay in the run part which they burrow in and spread all over then make little nests in at night. I plan to get a small dog kennel to go in the 'indoors' of the kennel for them to use over winter if they want and may get the same for the other two as I want something bigger than the Trixie house really, maybe 1 1/2- 2 times the size.
 
Ive got a hutch across the back of my shed. we took the mesh panel off so its only got a door on one half. In winter I stuff it with straw and they do use it. In summer I leave it empty and they just go in when they are spooked by something, have a bit of a leg bang and come back out.
 
At the moment mine sleep under the coffee table in there. I have vet bed and a fleece on the floor but they've wee'd all over it so I've just taken it out and for the moment there is a long underbed storage under there with fitch in. I don't know if they'll sleep in it or not but for the sake of the shed being still standing in a year's time I had to do something! They often sleep on top of the table, but I'm picking up a little hutch I won locally on ebay today, and I'll take the doors off, maybe they'll snuggle down in there. Probably not though!
 
Last year the shed had a double hutch in for the winter which my rainbow bunnies used. This winter i've taken that out and have two ikea side tables with a rug over the top that my two girls sleep on or under.
