Cage floor

[Habib]

My cage floor is not wire but plastic. Originally meant for Guinea pigs. Is this cage ok for my rabbits to lay down..believe the holes in the floor are not big enough to trap their legs. Also when they eat the hay in the pen and move back to the cage, the brown one with shorter legs apparently just walks in. But the orange fellow just jumps straight in all the time sometimes hitting the cage wall. Any idea how to curb this habit of hers? The pic below will show the distance she jumps from...

The cage floor is fine especially since they have the pen area.

However, I'm wondering why they are shut in the cage at all. Why not allow them permanent access to the pen area? Why not let it all be considered their housing?

I wouldn't worry too much about how the orange rabbit hops in.

The cage is their den. I normally leave the door open. While they do hop around, they return back to the cage to rest. St might I lock then up to ensure they dont jump over deep the orange as she can get get spooked easily
