We built these rabbit sheds ourselves and have developed the accommodation and layout over the years to meet our changing needs.
 |
Each rabbit is housed in a spacious hutch with labels indicating age and breed. |
 |
These hutches are all 4 feet in length. |
 |
This is our 'little shed' which is 26 feet long, with 23 rabbits in it. |
 |
We have a
selection of cage lengths so we can appropriately house rabbits of
different sizes. We are careful about security, so our premises are covered by CCTV 24 hours a day. |
 |
Visitors come from as far away as Hawaii to visit our rabbits. |
 |
Our shed is 37 feet long by 10 feet wide. This houses 29 rabbits. We use water bottle covers manufactured by Scratch and Newton. These covers are insulated and have been a great success both in winter and summer. They prevent the water from either becoming too warm to be palatable or from freezing on bitterly cold days. They also reduced the growth of algae. http://www.scratchandnewton.com/main.asp

The ceilings are insulated to ensure a consistent temperature. The sheds are air- conditioned for the summer. |
 |
The worktop area is for vegetable preparation. |
|
|
Our table for grooming. |
|
|
The passageway allows for excellent ventilation, which is essential in the summer. |

Hannah, currently on work
experience with us, cares for a new born kit. Hannah spends several
hours every week in our sheds and is a Hands On helper. She is
hoping to attend Sparsholt College in the near future and her time in our
sheds should give her invaluable experience. We have been impressed with
her interest and dedication. To find out more about Hannah's time with us |
