New Kit
Hi there, we rescued 5 netherlands in February and all has been well until now! We have a 2m x 3m, basically aluminium hen (I think) enclosure with a wooden hen house - this all came with the rabbits. They have loads of space and are warm in their house BUT. Where it was grass it is now mud with all the wet weather we have had. From this we have had dirty crusty bottoms and ewwwww. So we are cleaning them every day - their bottoms - and putting down straw but something has to be done.
Please can I have some advice as to the best way to floor this outside enclosure. There is a tarpaulin roof as the sunscreen fabric roof got storm and cat damaged - but of course the rain can get in.
I am thinking paving slabs or lino but there is nothing to stick the lino too. Also if it's paving slabs will I need to put woodship down to soak up the wee? The do seem to go in one area, although droppings are all over the enclosure.
Much advice needed, as soon as possible, as would rather take advice than spend out on one idea only to find it really doesn't work.
Many thanks.
