Hello all! I have been lurking here for a few weeks, learning as much as I can before our new bunnies come on Sunday! I built them a hutch myself - we live in Buffalo, NY, so it's gonna be cold this winter. I am getting 2 Rex bucks. They will be 8 weeks old this week, and are from the same litter. I'd love any advice and tips on keeping them warm and happy for the winter!
I made storm doors for all of the upper doors - one is clear plexiglass, and the others are corrugated plastic. Should I cover all of the upper doors? Will they be warm enough? I plan on putting newspaper, then wood pellets, then straw on the floor of the nesting area (at least until they're litter trained, and then maybe just the straw). The lower part, I was planning on just leaving open so they can have some fresh air!
