Bunny Mansion

Welcome to Ljs
This is a fun and great looking bunny Mansion very well done I hope your niece and nephew and bunny appreciate your fine work

-- Jim from Heirloom Woodshop Southern Oregon

Nice build.
Looks like it would work for chickens too.
Curious about the “second story” on the house side. does the rabbit have access to that too?

-- Les B, Oregon

THe second story is used for storage fo bedding and food. I have had a lot of people say the same thing about making them for chickens. Thanks for the comments.

Ha! I was going to ask about the second story but someone beat me to it. I like that you left the bottom open so you can move it around to fresh grass.

Nice design and finish….well done.

-- I will just keep doing it till I get it right.

The design is nice from a people point of view, however I hope you do not intend for the bunnies to stand on wire flooring. That causes sore hocks which can be debilitating.

Bunnies are easily litter box trained. Mine use a regular plastic cat litter box with recycled paper pellets for litter – never use clumping litter or wood shavings with rabbits. If you have a place for the litter box with a door to change it and an entrance from the cage to the litter station it is easy to take care of. The litterbox contents can be composted and are very rich in nitrogen. Also earthworms love it – so if you need fishing bait – it doesn’t take a lot of digging. Compost the Litter with left over hay and rabbit hair and your garden will love it. I found a clean wet-dry vac cleans up a bunny palace in just a few minutes and everything goes into the compost. For more information on rabbit care contact the “House Rabbit Society at www.rabbit.org.

Yeah I did a little research before building this. There is no wire floor on the bottom, just on the sides. I have made about 10 or so more for others and only one of them wanted wire floor on about a third of it. Don’t worry these are all plywood floors, some with removable plywood floors (trays) for cleaning.

What a luxurious life for a bunny…......I thought the second floor was the servants quarters!

Great job.

-- Doug, New Mexico.......the only stupid question is one that is never asked!........don't fix it, if it ain't broke!

WOW! Those bunnies will be “living large” in there! They’ll be spoiled bunnies!! :-) Nicely done.
