Tomorrow I am driving an hour away to purchase 16 rabbit cages. The cages are 4 cages that are 4 bays each. (Eeek, I'm so excited) So I have attached the listing for the cages. I have also attached a layout of where the different ages/genders will go and a drawing of what the set up will look like. And a drawing of a stand I will make to hang the hutches. I will make two stands. (I'm really sorry if it messes up, I have never attached anything on here before!) I have a 5 hole hutch and a tractor. My goal is to sell breeding stock and meat. The total cost of the stands and the cages would be $560. I have 3 working does and 2 working bucks. Rabbit Cages
My Questions
#1- Is it worth it to build a roof on the middle walk way?
#2- How should I do the automatic water system?
#3- I am thinking of adding another breed (or 2 lol
) . Which one should I add and why?
#4- Is $560 too expensive for a 16 cage expansion?
Just throw your opinions or improvements at me
The idea is that the stand would hang the cages and there would be a 5 foot walkway in the middle so I don't get rained on. There would be 2 stands butting against each other.
