Rabbits outside - do they really dig out of their homes?

[justnippingout]

I am just working out the best exterior housing, and we are planning on it being large and walk in, but I am wondering about the digging out, how likely is it that a rabbit will dig out, or a predator will dig in, and how far do you have to go to prevent it? I would have thought that if a clever bunny really wanted to get out, they would just keep digging deeper?!

Have you had a problem with rabbits digging out?

Thanks!

Previous rabbits have indeed dug out of their home, but mesh sunk 2ft into the ground contained them. The bigger difficulty where I am is foxes digging in. We don't have rabbits anymore, but our ducks are kept in a pen on flagstones overnight as nothing else stopped the foxes.

We had a shed for our rabbits to have free range with a mesh door so they can see out!!

Closed and locked at night due to foxes.

Also pot in a run supervised only and they never dug out
