In a rabbit hutch there is a dorr with mesh on it for light, but at one side there is a dark part where the door is completely covered in wood to stop light coming through.
Where abouts in the cage should I place the rabbit nestbox?Where abouts in a rabbits hutch should I place a rabbit nestbox?
I'm a rabbit breeder. Place your nestbox in the darkest most private area you have. I've been known to use a cat cube that they sell at walmart on the cheap, but I have wooden nest boxes too. The darker the area and the more private, the better.
If you have any bunny fur around, place that inside so that the doe understands - but she most likely will figure it out.
If this is your first time and also the bunnies, be prepared for just anything to happen.
Don't place the nest box in until you feel sure she is about to kindle in the next day, or she may stupidly start using it as a toilet.
It is good to have at least two boxes because not matter what happens, by the end of the first week after the bunnies are born, the original box is going to start to get rank.Where abouts in a rabbits hutch should I place a rabbit nestbox?
Away from the corner that the rabbit uses as a loo, plus you dont need a nest box in a hutch that has a dark part, your rabbit will build its nest in the dark part
the dark part, they want to have privacy and feel a sense of security.
