Your rabbit setups??

[oneacrefarm]

Very True Shannon. I was also a bit concerned about having them that close to the ground. (preditor wise) I dont worry much about them but I also have chickens under them and they will "pick" at all kinds of things. And, didnt want them pickin at my rabbits. My herd buck is in a seperate hutch and is closer to the ground, and I have seen the chickens steal some of his hay. So, needless to say that is why we added more length to our first shed. To keep everyone up higher.

I have rabbit caccitoria cooking right now......... oh the house smells AMAZING!
It sure is fun raising your own food.

Yummo! Save a plate for me!

I thought I smelled something good, but I mistook it for barbeque! Hey, you have a website or FB page?

i use triple stacker cages

Just curious? How is the clean up of triple stacker cages? I've read all the comments of hanging cages, but would really like to hear your experience of stackers. Thanks.

You weren't asking me...but DH cleans our triple stackers 1 or 2x a week (the ones w/ older babies in them fill up fast) and hasn't complained yet. The bigger cage (36x30) trays are tricky for him, I've seen him sort have trouble b/c the trays are flimsy and at that size they want to spill easier, for lack of a better way of putting it.
(Picture trying to hold a 36" wide tray of pee and not spill it on you, vs. a 24" one )

Thanks Roll. Appreciate the input.

Right now we have hanging and the motels up to 8 holes each.
The hanging are easier, but we are switching to all motels. No problems w/ the motels as long as they are emptied on a regular basis.
This weekend we broke ground on the new rabbit barn. Which will have a floor and no hanging cages. I plan on having heat/air and water in the barn,( no more frozen water) YEA!! so I think in the long run it will be easier.
