hay was one of their staples of food. I cleaned the cages out often. I would go through a bail every 2 weeks or so… but the chickens got some too.

Your cages have so much hay in them. How often did you clean them out & how much hay were you going through?

The first set of rabbits, what breed were they? Someone gave me one that looks like them, saying he was a Flemish, but he is clearly not because he’s a tiny bunny compared to a Flemish rabbit lol, he’s about the sized of your mama

This vid is like 2 years old. I don’t raise rabbits anymore. You can sell the rabbits for meat, for fur or as pets, if you’re interested in raising them for profit.

i think you should have them in a bigger cage or get another cage and put them apart to have more room.

What kind of rabbit do you raise? and good idea for those boxes but i always just have a piece of wood sitting there as a removable floor because I find no matter how much hay you put in there there is always wind that comes up and chills them. Good set up.

4:05 is that a NZW buck? I have one myself currently and love him to the point of bad for a feeder rabbit. He is the daddy of my future does which my current ones I dislike (good liter size but terrible social behaviors)
Any chance you have a video of your encloser setup as a whole? I have mine outside and would love ideas for winter proofing.
