I might start breeding Netherland Dwarfs. I'm considering doing colony life(inside of a 10x10 building) or doing wire cages with a playpen. I'm starting off with a trio. And I'm on a tight budget since I have to save up the money. No more then $600. Any tips or ideas. Thanks
I use chain link dog kennels for my runs/pens. 6 formed into a box makes a predator and dig proof area tall enough to walk into.
Yesterday I moved my separation cages outside the run for added floor space (doors are accessible through the back wall)They are made from reclaimed pallets and some old wire cages I had on hand. The colony run is 8x10x6 with a tarp for the wind.Half of a plastic dog house serves as a burrow.The whole thing cost less than $150, second hand dog panels were $75, a new tarp was $45 and the rest was reclaimed or free.
