Chickens and Bunnies

[layineggs5]

Hi everyone! We are new chicken owners as of last week. My daughters want bunnies too which leads me to my question... can chickens and bunnies share the chicken run? I would provide the bunnies with their own hutch but want to allow them some space to roam. Since I live within the city limits and don't have a lot of yard it would be ideal to have the chickens and bunnies share a space in my yard. Thanks for any insight and information you can provide!
