So does this mean you have decided to keep Tips?
What kind of cage do you currently have inside? Having in NIC condoallows for more space when you cant be there to lethim (orthem? is there more than one?) out to run around. Also, what kind oflitter are you using? That could be the cause of the smell if youre notusing a very odor absorbant litter.
With regards to housing outdoors, I would not recommend it if yourehaving trouble right now giving your bunnies time. Once theyre outside,its very easy to forget about them, unless youre very dedicated togiving them time to run and play.
However, it can be done if youre willing to put in the time.MBB has three that she keeps ouside and she lives inAlberta,CA, but she really takes great care to give them proper time andattention ( I remember her saying she has to change the water manytimes a day in the winter to keep it from freezing).
If I were you, I would just try to make some alterations with their indoor housing.
