I thought one with two storeys would be good so that they get a bit of exercise hopping between the two floors, but they do need to be able to hop around on the grass as often as possible so that they can really stretch their legs. They do love their freedom.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8184901344095001216.post-21348187767092038422014-11-03T18:20:16.035+00:002014-11-03T18:20:16.035+00:00It is lovely to see photos of them enjoying their ...It is lovely to see photos of them enjoying their freedom. I hate it when they are kept cooped up in small hutches, without the chance to really stretch out and enjoy doing what rabbits naturally do in the wild.Hoehoegrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00745640711509233722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8184901344095001216.post-19361142518963986262014-11-03T16:28:38.602+00:002014-11-03T16:28:38.602+00:00They're rexes.

They're silver and bubbled and are supposed to keep the hutches cosy in winter and cool in summer. There's also a screen which comes down over the front of the hutch to keep flies out in summer and draughts out in winter, and we cover the fronts with old carpet on a night. We make sure that they have plenty of hay too, so they're lovely and snug.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8184901344095001216.post-21296614254274047202014-11-02T15:52:19.280+00:002014-11-02T15:52:19.280+00:00Oh they both look happy and healthy creatures Jo. ...Oh they both look happy and healthy creatures Jo.

Rabbits can live to quite an age so we understood when we got them that Daniel and Eleanor would more than likely have left home whilst we still had them.

We even have them innoculated, I know many people don't bother with rabbits, but I think if we're going to have pets then we need to treat them well. It's nice for them, like your guinea pig, to have a change of scenery and a run around, but our grass gets so waterlogged in the winter that it's impossible for them most of the time, but we do still let them run around the patio if the grass is out of bounds.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8184901344095001216.post-75635123730932247372014-11-02T10:32:12.718+00:002014-11-02T10:32:12.718+00:00Well they do say it's all about the location, ...Well they do say it's all about the location, and the bunnies do seem to like it here.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.com
