We don't have a bunny yet so I'm curious how much they chew. I've read reviews online for different hutches where the rabbits have basically used the porch of the hutch as a chew toy. Our neighbors bunny has chewed on its hutch too. Is there a way to discourage chewing, do they chew on people (like puppies do when teething) What else do I need to know about chewing? Thanks soooo much for all the help!

They chew a lot
They do it to wear down their teeth, out of boredom and just for fun :cheesysmile:
The best option is to make their cage out of wire or offer plenty of branches to gnaw on instead but they may still chew the wooden frame of a hutch
The only time I've had a rabbit nibble on me was when I had food residue - salty or sweet - on my fingers
I've been bitten by rabbits, usually when trying to take out cage aggressive ones
