I keep my bunnies inside since our heat in summer is horrible. It really depends on whether you have other animals inside and whether you’ve bunny proofed your house enough to let them out and still keep them safe. We have the Fort Knox part, built out of HWC and 2x4s to lock them in if we’re not here and another area that’s just an exercise pen add on for a larger total area when we are home. Total space is about 65 square feet, but they aren’t allowed out every day because I work and have large dogs.
They will chew your baseboards, electrical cords, furniture, etc if you don’t keep an eye on them.

Hi at the minute I’m in most the day so I let them run round inside while keeping an eye and at night or if I have to go out they go in a playpen thing I have dogs in the house but they get on well with the buns and sleep in a different room I know they have the playpen and their not in it that much but it’s not the greatest so I just wanted to see other ideas so I can make it the best for them oh and sometimes they go out inthe garden if the weathers nice

Here are a few pics of the pen. I converted an old desk into a two story condo and they love to hide in the castle. Forgive the mess, it has been since the weekend that I cleaned.

I always wondered what your vull setup looked like. Love it

Thanks! Nothing special really but plenty of space on a daily basis. I let them out for a few hours a few days a week on the carpeted areas of the house to stretch their legs and get some extra love. The female is very friendly and brave but the male is still very shy and tough to catch to put away.
