Recommend me a rabbit hutch

I have two happy outdoor rabbits whose cage (which a nice man in our village built for me) is starting to fall apart. Can anyone recommend me one that isn't ridiculously expensive and doesn't look like it would fall apart if I look at it a bit funny? Most of the ones I can find online seem to be flimsy and expensive!

www.rabbit-hutches.co.uk/6ft-rabbit-hutch this one but usually a wait list. They do good covers too

Have a look at dog kennels/runs or small sheds/play houses. They’re usually much more suitable sizes for rabbits,

Thank you. I'll take a look!

Hutches are old fashioned and not really designed with their welfare in mind, they're narrow and mass produced ones are often made of cheap flimsy wood. Sheds/play houses are much better set up.

You do get what you pay for, so investing in a slightly more costly set up should mean it lasts for the lifetime of your rabbits and beyond. My shed and aviary are on to their second pair of buns now
