Large Rabbit Hutch Positioning.
You should ensure your large rabbit hutch is raised off the ground allowing air to circulate and preventing surface water from being absorbed into the floor.
Hot Weather
It should also have a waterproof roof, but please be aware that large rabbit hutches can become hot during the summer months and should be sited in a sheltered position out of direct sunlight. Extremes of temperature can cause stress which may result in discomfort or illness for your rabbit.
Cold Weather
In cold weather there must be adequate protection from draughts, wind and rain.
Whilst quite heavy, repositioning your large rabbit hutch can help make the most of winter sunlight.
Place your large rabbit hutch on bricks or legs to avoid it becoming damp during wet weather. Ensure the roof is sloping, waterproofed and overhangs slightly to avoid poor drainage on the top surface.
Rabbit Run: Room To Exercise
You must also provide a rabbit run that allows plenty of room to exercise. Rabbits are naturally frightened of large, open spaces and love playing in a run that contains playthings, such as boxes, flowerpots, drainpipes and logs.
