Cages Only 1 (now closed)

You built that?! It's awesome! Nice job

Curious as to where you got some of the materials, like the tray, door latches, or plastic strips?

This is a picture of cage/cages I built four 4 of my buns.

Well, here is the new cage for Ella andOzzy. I am forever trying to perfect my bunnies'homes!!! For some reason, I'm just never satisfied!!!! Ineed a bigger house!

It's a side by side. Each bun has 3'x2 1/2' floor space andit's 3' high. The drop pan was made from coroplast (it'scheap, and light and waterproof). The pan is hinged in the back so thatthe front drops down for easy cleaning. I use puppy pads init to absorb the wet stuff. I am going to add some perchesfor them later. The top is open.

And I know this is a bunny forum, but I justfinished Madi's new habitat. There are two sides to it sinceI plan on getting her some friends. One side is for the boysand the other side is for the girls. Madi just moved in thismorning and she seems to be enjoying it, although she won't go to thesecond story.

Thanks! We had fun building FuzzButt & Biscuitscage! We got the wire, trays, clips, resting boards &urine guards all at our local Tractor Supply (where else )!The latches, plastic strips and floor supports came from Bass Equipment& Da-Mars Equipment!

BUMP for bunsforlife

Hehe thanks Elf =D Man we do have some creative bunnybuilders!

I am looking at all of these other cages withenvy. The cages we have are smaller compared to otherpeoples, but they are good for our needs for now. When wemove into our new place when we are married, we're planning on lettingAmelia be a total house bun because she is so good at not chewing onwires.

Emmit can't be let out when we can't watch him because he is SObad! They both just love their cages though. Herethey are. I love it. Emmit is giving me the look of"why don't you just put that camera away and notice how cute I am solet me out!" And Amelia is licking her cage (which she does often, andto everything inside her cage). Emmit now also has a newledge in his cage next to her ledge.

Okay, here's Rex and Peanut's new cage in myroom. They're out and about when I'm home, and once I completelybunny-proof my room, they'll be out all the time. The cage is nice andbig, was very easy to assemble, has a large door and a plastic drop pan(no rust!) and was only $76 with s/h. Not bad for a college student ona tight budget

Wow! I mean wow! It is amazing how many peoplehave spent so much time to ensure their buns every comfort! All thecages are awesome and any bun would be lucky to live in any of them. Mybuns are currently stacked with Ben's on the bottom and Fergi's on top.Fergi has a peice of plywood under her as well as a shower pan linerfor easy cleaning. It is so funny to watch her try to dig up the showerpan liner. So far she has no luck. I do plan on replacing the bottomsof their cages as soon as I can afford the coroplast. It seems to be abit more expensive up here. And yes that is an empty twelve pack ofbeer in her cage and one of coke. I stuff them with newspaper to beripped and shredded. Ben's is shoved into an empty rice crispie box.It's nice to know that I reduce, reuse, and recycleI try togive my bunny's as many things to play with in their cage's as possibleto avoid mental and physical boredom. Fergi has a four foot apple woodbranch on her upper level that she has been working on for awhile. Theyeach have a baby activity blanket that they don't chew on and I washregularly. Anyways, here's their cages.

Fergi's mom

That was Fergi's and this is Ben's

I had to put plastic tarps up on my walls because Fergi was sprayingurine on the walls. It was pretty icky to clean so I just bought cheapplastic painters tarps and change itas needed.

Lol, pamnock, I sent a photo of your cages to myaunt and uncle and said your now emty barn is going to look like this,my aunt said my uncle just shook his head, lol! We are in the processof building 30x something ftpolebarn which is beingused to what we can't fit in the garage/hunting junk/rabbits (it willbe built into two sections with a wall divider between hunting storageand the rabbits). I told them in no time I will have that barn filledup so we won't even have room for the camper. His reply was he hadbetter get some rabbits to eat out of this *rolls eyes*. He ishilarious, he tries to act all macho like he doesn't care about theanimals, and then you see him carrying Cricket (our min pin) in hisarms talking baby talk.

Anyways.. I don't have my cages up yet, no that they are much to lookat. And the barn isn't done (should be done in 2-4 weeks), but I willbe sure to post pics when it's done. I can't believe how awesome someof your guys' cages are! ^^

Thought I betterupdate Sebastian's Condo photos! It has a coroplast bottom in it now,but don't have any better photos. I built this so that he could come infor the winter. His outside hutch is pictured at the beginning of thisthread. Oh, I've also taken out the carpet and snuggly petbed.....and replaced them with natural corn husk mats. Just don'twant to take a chance with a bunny eating stuff that's bad for them!

This is the first time I've seen this thread. Our bunnies are truly spoiled, but they deserve it.

I'll post a Stephie cage photo this weekend.

Don't let the avatar block fool you.The Missus and I are spending the New Year Holiday with Carolyn and itis easier to use her workstation.

Some of you may recall my mentioning of the Safe House used to harborour free-ranging buns from potential predators, real orimagined. Here is a picture of same.

For easy access and cleaning purposes, the roofis removable. Please note there are two vestibules, one room,and a loft. All entrances/exits are in contraposition forelimination of drafts and/or predator confusion.

The system seems to work well.
