Hello,

I'm thinking about trying to make a homemade digging box for my bunnies using a wooden chest. I wondered if this looks like it would be a bunny safe material to use?

Thanks

I think as long as it's unpainted as you stated and not pressure treated wood it would be fine.

It looks to be quite high, why not try a plastic under bed storage box ? They are low sided and much cheaper, easier to clean too !

Well my plan was to put a plastic storage box inside. But I was hoping to make something they can also go inside. So I'd cut a hole in it somewhere. Just in at least an attempt to stop it going all over my kitchen...! [emoji23] trying to contain the mess a little...i think I'm probably fighting a losing battle though!

How about a deep storage box with a hole each end?

If you’ve got a bit more to spend there’s this:

It would certainly keep the mess in!

Oh these look great! This was the kind of thing I was going to make. I have seen one similar but it was totally out of my price range so was going to make one until o could afford. This is a bit closer to being affordable though have you even used them before?

I have used him - he’s very good, takes around 4 weeks to deliver which is pretty quick for made to order items and the price includes delivery. I have the bridge which is really solid and you can peg veggies and treats to the rope.
