It was going to be 6 buty I decided to make it 3 so that they had more room. I will be building 2 of these the other one will be 6 and used as grow out bins
thanks all I have switched up my plans but right now my yard is buried with snow so I am at least 2 weeks away from starting my planning
I am going to build them all in one shelter 10X8 this way I can fit them and a grow out cage all in one shelter. I will post the pics once I start
Ok so I built 4 cages 36 inchs long 30 inchs wide and 19 inches tall. So my issue is when I built the doors and everytime I rich in I get all scratched up. I am afraid that I will cut up the rabbits when I remove them. What do you use to cover up the area with sharpe points.
Well I decided to get into raising rabbits. I got 4 yesterday one doe (satin) is to young born 11/10/2012, but the other 3, The buck is 2 years old a New Zealand Black, a 1.5 year Old New Zealand Black Doe, and a 2 year old White new Zealand Doe.

Well we are picking them up on Sunday as I have still a ton of work to get done. Once I get them in I will post pictures of them.
Also a question regarding cage sizes
For my Buck I was going to make the Cage 30X32 and for the does 30X36 and both 24 tall. is that a good size? I rather go on...
It is funny you mention that Here in CT I had a hard time finding the 1/2X1 and the 1X2 fencing. I ended finding it at TSC but each store only had 1 roll each so I ended up driving almost 80 miles to go to 2 different stores to get 2 rolls each.
I am gettign 3 does and 1 buck this weekend the Buck is a Dutch and the does are dutch and nz crosses.
I am building their cages tonight and until spring they are staying in our basement. AS we are buried under 4 feet of snow and I can not get out there to build one yet.
I can not wait
Looks like the floor has 1/2X1/2 inch wire, I think that will get clogged with waste. Also looks pretty wobbley with the legs and no braces.
you can build one like this for about 30.00 the wire being the big cost of the project
Thank you all,
