Hopscotch Buns Rabbitry:

 Each rabbit is housed in a homemade, recycled wood, single or double hutch.  These hutches range from 2-4 feet in length and width, with 2-3 feet of height and the legs raise the wire floors 10" off of the ground for ample ventilation and easy access for daily waste cleaning.  I used plastic storage tub lids under the hutches to gather the waste for even easier cleaning.  Each hutch-home has a level to jump up to for exercise and a wooden hideaway house to satisfy their need for burrowing and privacy.  I am pleased with these hutches, and am happy to say the climate has been successfully controlled by use of shade trees, burlap shades, misters, fans, lights, tarps for rainy days, frozen water bottles to lie against in the heat, etc.  I have changed my set up numerous times in the short time I have been doing this, and I find I am happier with my creations each time.  Plus, it makes cleaning so much easier and much more thorough.  I encourage new and seasoned breeders alike to never stop improving, and changing your rabbitry/habitat to meet the needs of your bunnies. 

My Breeding Herd 

Two of my 3 herd bucks are homebred Hopscotch Buns.  I am working towards 100% Hopscotch Buns with minimal line/cross breeding.  Having a buck heavy herd is helpful!  My herd currently consists of 3 bucks (1 jr not yet pictured) and 4 does (1 jr not yet pictured & 1 sr, Maki, moving to a new home & Rapunzel will be retiring to be an indoor pet rabbit).
