How much space do you allow for Mini Rex and Californian (or other approximately-sized) buns?

DH and I are seeking alternative flooring options (to give our bun crew more traction than their laminate flooring allows). In order to do so, though, we'll likely need to reduce their current x-pen space a bit.

To me it all depends on how much out time the rabbit gets. A must is enough to stretch out fully, take 3 hops, and stand up.

Ahhh...Then my suspicion that our crew is royally spoiled in terms of space is true. The girls share a room (split down the middle with a divider); both have an approximately 5' x 8' space.

Our Cali boy has nearly an entire room (penned off) to himself; so he has 10' x 5'.

I suspect that if/when we finally land upon a relatively safe form of traction that we can keep in their penned areas, we'll cut down on their space a tad.

Are you talking about Cages Only 2007 (under the Cages Through the Ages section)? If not, please specify the thread that I'm overlooking. :p

Thanks,

I'm from the UK, and my rabbits are in 5ftx2ftx2ft cages, and I feel this still isn't big enough for them.

Is that inside or out? Also how much out time do they get?


 
Jade,

I've looked at some of your designs and will have some specific material-related questions, which I'll post within your thread.
