I used to have my rabbits(3) in a rather large, closed off space in my home. I ended up having to move them outside because the third one could not be litter box trained, and he ended up peeing on the wood floor several times (which is very difficult to clean). So then I bought a large hutch for the three of them to live in. I also let them roam around their old home whenever I could but now I use that space for my office. They still come up here and are very comfortable but they always leave something behind! (chewed couch bits, urine, chewed wires, etc).
Alright so my second effort to get them out of the hutch and to exercise was to completely bunny proof my indoor porch, and let them spend an hour or two a day back there. Well... all they would do is sit in the corner. Sometimes they would explore for 5 minutes but then they would get bored and just hide in the corner until I put them back in their hutch.
My last attempt was to set them up in a playpen outside. If this worked I was going to call a family friend and ask him to build a much larger playpen/run for them. As you can probably guess, they spent the entire time sitting in one spot, and didn't move at all, day after day.
I'm not really sure what to do.....
