Hey guys I was wondering if anyone has any information regarding how much space you need to keep your rabbit cages indoors. I am planning for the future at the moment and trying to figure out what I will need to do. I will be moving to a house in October and would like to raise rabbits. Now I am in the planning things out phase.
I will be keeping my rabbits outdoors for most of the year in southeast Wisconsin. I might need to keep the rabbits indoors for a few days/weeks when it is the coldest outside. Keeping them in the house will not be an option. However, I have a small shed with about 40-50 square feet; and I would probably have 3-6 30"x36" cages to put in there (depending on how many rabbits I'd have at a the moment). Does anyone have a statistic on the minimum amount of square footage I could keep the rabbits in?
The structure probably won't work for extended periods of time (lighting and ventilation issues I would assume). And I will probably end up building a spacious 100 square foot building eventually (next spring). But until then I am trying to figure out if I'd even be able to have rabbits until the spring.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
Mike
