Hello all,
I am new to the group and new to rabbits. I picked up 8 rabbits this past weekend and have some pre-made cages that I picked up too. The cages are 18" wide x 24" deep x 18" tall and all have the opening on the top of the cage. I have enough cages for them all to have their own cage and lots more I picked up for the future rabbits too. My rabbits are New Zealand & Californian or a cross between the two. I have some of each.
My question is what is the idea size for the cages? I have been doing some reading on line and it seems like everyone has their own opinions. I have been told that 2' x 2' is a good size for them to be in when they are by themselves. 3' wide x 2' deep is good size for a breed doe so she has room for nesting box.
Just looking for words of wisdom from those who have paved the path before me thanks.
