Everything available seems to be much smaller than we already have, I'm looking at the shed option but both of mine love to be up high and jump on ramps etc so I would have to add lots to the inside of a large shed to make it a good home for them.

Can anyone offer some advise or offer a supplier that makes extra large hutches?

Cheapest option for alot of space and a good quality home for your buns is to convert a shed and then attach a run to that. Otherwise happyhutches do a 6ftx2ft hutch with a 4ftx6ft run attached.... i have one im selling actually!! My buns now have the whole garage!

I really love the idea Lee and looks really smart and well made but its too small for bunnies. Should be 6ftx2ft min as recommended by the rspca. The frustrating thing with petshops is they only sell tiny hutches, i think most people i know that have buns have 6ft happyhutches (which to be honest arent good quality but are big) 6ft rydesdale hutches which are good quality but expensive... but then they last or a converted shed.

Rabbits need to be able to stretch out and take at least three hops from one ened to the other, in weather like this they can be stuck in for days.

i agree with crofty here it is VERY nice to look at but unfortunatly it is on the small side for a bunny.
