We have 2 Flemish Giants, but only for a short time now (>1 month). They seem to prefer to sleep in the run, never in the hutch. It has been nice weather these last few weeks, with days in the high eighties, and nights high fifties, but will this continue if I don’t “hutch-train” them? Thanks!

Hello all, I’m thankful to have found another online support group! I recently joined Backyard Chickens after getting out first flock, and now we’ve added Giant Flemish rabbits to the fun! We homeschool our children, so having these hands-on experiences is exciting for the whole family!
