rabbit advice, help me, i hjave an escaping rabbit!

[LadyVictoriaOfCake]

he has a large hutch and run which is situated on the lawn where the nettles grow wild. he has dug himself a warren, which i dont mind. but today my foot went through and made a hole in his tunnels he has dug. so he has spent a lot of the day running round my back garden, happy as larry.

should i move the run so he has to redig, move it onto the concrete (seems wrong to stop him doing when he does naturally) or just let him have the run of the garden?

If you're sure that your garden is fox proof then let him run around.

we let ours have the run of the garden

beware though....you will have no plants left!

not fox proof, we have urban foxes. can put him in the hutch when we go out and at night.

thats what we do

he is only out if we are out with him

We do that too - every now and again the fox comes round in the day so we have to be careful.

We have urban foxes, and they will come at any time of day if they smell dinner!

I have dug a layer of chicken wire under the grass under our rabbit's run. I dug out a patch, put down wirte, a layer of soil on top and then turf. And the rabbits have a nylon 'warren' from PetsAtHome that they like to go in and out of. I'm not sure if it is the digging they like, or being in a tunnel. I have also considered geting some lengths of pipe for our rabbits to run in.
