What are some factors I should consider when deciding where to place my outdoor hutch?
Make sure when placing a hutch in your yard that you keep in mind the afternoon sun and how much exposure to this heat your bunny might get. Bunnies can take the cold a lot better than the hot weather and are very susceptible to heat stroke in the summer months. In regards to the winter months, make sure the placement doesn’t allow direct exposure to the elements and that built within your hutch is an area that your bunny can retreat if the weather is especially harsh. Another important consideration should be possible predators. Do not place your bunny in an area where they will be readily exposed to predators such as dogs, cats, etc. If this becomes unavoidable, make sure the hutch is secure and your cage wire is protected from underneath so that an under the cage attack is avoided.
