Thank you! I appreciate your honesty, and bravery, to reveal your “mistakes” (learning opportunities!). Got my first breeding trio and 3 cages. I’m looking to build a better hutch for the cages before the babies come along. 🐇🐇🐇

I really like the way you take care of your rabbits 🙌👌

I love your videos. I freaking love the little sound effects you add when the babies are being goofy

I often don’t catch it until I’m editing! 😂

Another channel I watch has places marble square slabs in each hutch. They will freeze a large soda bottle and lay the bottle up against the marble slab so it stays cool for them.

Yep that is a great idea! Just overall ventilation and air flow is key. Anything cold for them to lay on is a bonus 😊

Very informative and helpful in planning construction...

Very helpful, thanks. I was just getting ready to purchase TS cages.

Pet lodge used to make half decent coated wire hutches. I got one second hand. I decided wire was the way to go and they stopped manufacturing them! I figured out dog cages make decent rabbit holes if you line them with cage wire and a few inches up the side. Lock the doors with clips. Way cheaper considering I can get a large dog cage for 5-10$

I used to have pet lodges long ago when I raised Dutch! They definitely held up way better. This next go around I am using KW cages 😊

This just popped up today, I’ve seen it before for it was forth watch again. Can wait to see the new farm. 👍👍

Those Tractor Supply cages don't work at all. They are designed to do that so you have to buy more.

@@TealStoneHomestead KW's are super sturdy and meant to last. Certainly the best cages that I've found over the years for long-term use. Wish you good luck on the hutch redesign. I need to redesign a few of my own for some of the same reasons you listed in your video.

OMG!!In future I will breed holland lops and lionheads!💖

I am in the process of building my rabbitry now, so this was great information for me. Unfortunately, the cages I bought were DuMor from Tractor Supply. Thanks for the tips on what to look for with them.

I’m glad it helped! 😊 also I still have my dumor cages! They work fine but do have a couple of flaws obviously. I always tell people to just watch the doors and watch for rust. Some buns get smart and can push out on the bottom of the door... lol

Beautiful rabbits. Super

Great video

Thank you! Also, tell me about this grow out cage behind you!!! I’m thinking I might need this in my life lol

Can you post a video of how to build the cages, I'm just a beginner and I have lost 5 rabbits already.

Thank you for sharing the experience! I found it very informative and helpful. Love seeing those babies! Had to laugh when that one took a little tumble! Lord, they are so adorable!

I love ur rabbits personally I breed lionheads and they r so cute

The fly bags on Amazon work great

So cute. I'm curious,what kind of pellets did you give to baby rabbits?

Hi, just a thought - dogs have v sensitive ears so when you swat the flies, they might get scared due to the sound that’s not much for us but freq sufficient to hurt dog ears… please verify this info…

Glad u have a garden! Lol Ahh good tips on the hutch. Im in process of designing my hutch to build in spring. Got chickens already but what kinda urban homesteader would I be without rabbits😉 free fertilizer! Lol

Thank you so much! ❤️ Rex rabbits are beautiful! these fans are actually from Walmart. They’re not really meant to be outdoors but I needed a quick and affordable solution for the heat this summer.

I love you new upgraded hitch it gave me some great ideas and this video was soooo helpful the next to the house thing I was going to do thanks for that the shade I have trees at the back of my yard and I will be checking the direction for the best weather protection. So much great info but I’m wondering why you don’t have waste collectors so you can sell it, that’s money on the ground baby.

Yes I would have never thought about the flies before they got really bad this last year!! Actually I am using all of my waste under the new hutch! I’m spreading the manure and wasted hay over my garden beds to act as mulch. This spring we’ll add more dirt. And when we’re not using so much hay next spring/summer, I might add some sort of collection system 😊

With accumulated pee stuck there how you getting them smell free. My buns are using toilet and cleaned every day. I just can’t stand the pee smell

Try pine pellets in their pans/under their cages. I have used them in my rabbits litter box (first time having a litter trained rabbit, and ran into the smell issues) it completely eliminated the smell and kept his litter box supper dry for up to three days.

Can you show images next time of what was wrong and what wire you recommend etc? Its better to be able to see what you are talking about.
