Queen of the castle
The rabbits are in residence
More rabbits at rest
Divisions allow owners to clean one section, while still leaving rabbits in the hutch
All doors/hatches have piano hinges so that there is no opening at the hinge position for rabbits to catch their feet.
The hatch opening between first and second floor has a slide to close it off, in case it becomes necessary to separate rabbits
Lower section of hutch has opening hatches on either end that hinge down to act as a ramp for roaming rabbits
Top screen sections are removable for either cleaning or accessing rabbits
Straw bin was designed to keep straw up off the floor so it doesn't get soiled, extended life of the straw
Starw bin open at top for refilling and cleaning
The horizontal bars are spaced so they will not create a hazard for rabbits' heads
Most rabbits like a shelter of some sort to hide. This was designed to give them shelter as well as a ramp to the second story
