Rabbit Hutch Improvements



O Wise one made some improvements to my rabbit hutches. He put a board and wire around the bottom so nothing can get under the pens such as dogs, coyotes and such. He also made it where I can compost the manure right under the pen. I just throw straw under there to catch all that urine and rabbit poo and let it all rot down. I don't have to worry about the dogs and chickens scattering it anymore.  Then it can just be scooped out like always to go on the garden. What a man!!




The rabbits don't seem to care one way or another as long as they get their pea shells for the day.

  2. Mrs. CQ I never thought about putting hay under the pen what an awesome idea! how long do you leave it before you remove to add to garden? I have been raking 2x a week to add somewhere in my gardens.It has really started making a difference in how beautiful some plants are growing in size:) Your hutches are so neat. We just made one out of recycled stuff from my dads its really a piece of patched art work lol. One day if we do well with them hubby says he will help me with some nice pens.

    1. When I see that I have a nice straw/manure mixture then basically I just find somewhere that needs some goodies!
