How big should a hutch be for 2 rabbits?
Your rabbits’ enclosure should be as large as possible but the minimum size for a rabbit enclosure for two rabbits should be 3m (length) x 2m (width) x 1m (height) as recommended by the Rabbit Welfare Association and Fund. You can also use ramps to allow climbing, exploration and play behaviour.
How do you measure a hutch?
Measure along the wall, from the corner forward, at about waist level. Stop at the depth specified for the hutch you want, if you have one already picked out, or at the hutch depth you desire. Most corner hutches fall between 12 and 24 inches deep, from the corner to the front edges where they meet the walls.
What are the different types of hutches?
Most hutches are of three types, the kitchen hutch, the china hutch or the buffet hutch. A buffet hutch is the simplest of the three types. It is usually a short cabinet, with a flat top, upon which one can serve additional food, tea, or coffee. The top is also a nice place to keep a bowl of fruit.
Should rabbits be in hutches?
Your rabbits’ house, such as a run and hutch, is one of the most important factors in making sure they’re happy and healthy. They’ll need lots of space and need to be kept in pairs or groups. Otherwise, they can get lonely and depressed, and even develop health problems.
