How do you build a wooden bunny hutch?

1. An All-Wooden Enclosure. This type of cage is the most common and popular. It is not, however, the best choice for your rabbit. We will cover why this is after the way to design it and build it is discussed. It is best to use sturdy dependable plywood when building your all-wooden enclosure, not particle board. This cage will be home to your rabbit for a long time so it is important to use good supplies.

This type of cage is generally designed with two different sections. One section will be completely enclosed, all except for a small opening for your rabbit to enter and exit into the larger portion of the cage. This section can have a wooden floor but it is recommended to have a wire bottom. This is because your rabbit will generally use any bedding as litter and they do not know any better than to go to the bathroom whether they are in their "bedroom" or not. The larger section should be approximately twice the size of the enclosed area. This section will have a wire bottom and a door in the front. The door should be wire as well. This will allow your rabbit to have circulation throughout the pen. Circulation is important for your rabbit to remain healthy. Make sure that your hutch has a sturdy roof, especially if you are in an area where there might be snowfall. Also make sure that the cage is set high enough off of the ground to allow for circulation, at least 3 feet. One last option is to put a solid door on the front of your "bedroom" area; this will make it easier to catch your rabbit if he is playing hard to get
