We used pressure treated 4 x 4's in my barn. The rabbits couldn't reach them to chew on them, but I never had any problems. Also, my husband is a woodworker,...

Thanks for the replies! I really am thinking it will be fine as long as it is a open barn. If it were a small inclosed barn with not much ventalation I would...
Hi Everyone. Another question I have is, my pet rabbit's cage is made of thick wire and wood. What materials can I line her gage with besides newspaper? I...
Does she use the wire part, or the solid wood part as her toilet? Shavings are OK, but they're going to be messy if she can get to them. She'll kick them up...

is angel over-weight? this may be why she is not grooming herself correctly - also, if there is poo stuck to her bottom it may be that she is not eating enough...
The perfect filler for a litter box, or for bedding, is wood stove pellets. You can often only find them in the winter -- so stock up! -- but they are...
