![Why We Broke Up Our Rabbit Colony [Lessons Learned and New Strategy]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/hBRF12-dCGs/mqdefault.jpg)
We had to build this hutch faster than we wanted to. Click the video to see why: ruclips.net/video/W5phIBOrp_8/видео.html
I almost never use plans. Glad to see I'm in good company! lol
@Celeste's _Nest I wish I was able to make these plans available to folks who were interested in building this
@@TheNakidGardeners ikr?
You give rabbit poop to the chicken??
@ivonne t yes especially in the summer when it's full of fly larva. It's just like having them follow a herd of cows a few days
great looking rabbit hutch. if I may, I'd like to give you some friendly advice.. always put your wire on the inside because the rabbits will chew that wood and eventually get out. putting the wire on the inside stops them from being able to chew the wood. on your partitions, put the wire on both sides. rabbits do extremely well in cold temps.. they're built for it.. it's the hot weather you need to worry about. I know this is a year old now.. and by now I'm sure you've learned all the "tricks of the trade"...
Thanks. Yes, we have learned. They dont chew on the wood as much anymore now since we give them pine cones once or twice a week.
The hutch is awesome.
Thank you. A few viewers were asking about this hutch. I'm glad I was able to share with our viewers.
I enjoyed the build out. This is exactly what I asked my husband to do at the end of the month
I believe if I had had plans, I could have built this in a weekend. Yall raise rabbits?
Great review and history of the rabbit hutch build, Brother Sid. That came out great for not having plans in hand.
Appreciate it, Big Rob. I think if I did have a set of plans it probably would have gone a little smoother. Hopefully, the grow-out hutch for the rabbits will go smoother.
Very talented builder!!!
Thank you for the kind words.
Great cage and ideals.
Thank you!
Im glad you enjoyed it. Do you raise rabbits?
I liked the storage area you have above the cage and below the roof. That works out great for storing pans as you have.
Yes it does! I wanted to have places to store those instead of putting in a different location and have to go and get it or lose it when I needed it. What breed of rabbits do you raise?
Awesome video, I love the idea of the concrete trays. You did a good job of planning everything out. I also love the "what I would have done different " part.
Thank you! Hindsight is definitely something we want to pay forward for anyone else to get a leg up. We' did our homework and still learn from educated mistakes 😅.....
Are you planning a build?
Glad to see you using a real stapler to attach the wire. I have seen some people use a stapler that was meant for paper
Hahaha really? That is crazy.
Awesome build. I have the wire cages and have been thinking about changing them out (for various reasons). I learned a couple of tricks from your build out that I will definitely use when I change mine out. Great commentary too.
Glad I could help. What breed of rabbits are you raising? How long have you been raising meat rabbits?
Nicely done!
Thanks
Inspiration for us. Thank you.
You're welcome. What breed so you raise?
Excellent build, looks beautiful!!!
Appreciate it. Thanks so much. Do you raise rabbits?
@@TheNakidGardeners I used to during y2k for meat. NOW, I'm just building a hutch for my grndtrs bunny. They are cute critters.
This was extremely helpful thank you so much!
Glad it helped you out
Thanks for the inspiration! Just finished building mine over the weekend. Just need to slap a roof on and it'll be done.
That's awesome. If you have instagram, please tag us
I love this one you barely did cutting your materials and the tray system is awesome job
Thank you. The tray system is something I wanted to implement to use for gardens and possibly use it to sell. Do you raise rabbits?
Getting ready to build a new hutch. Really like your set up . looks awesome.
Enjoyed your video.
Thank you! What are you using your rabbits for?
Very nice Hutch !!!
Apprised it. Do you raise rabbits?
I love your build! Great work, just watch your hand with that nailer. Those nails bend very easily even in pine (around knots), took a 15 gauge nail through my finger that was positioned at a 90 degree angle to the nail, it hit a knot, turned and came out of the wood. Talk about a surprise, that woke me up for the day!
Ouch! Will do. Thanks for the heads up
Great job! I am in the planning stages for my new hutch... got a lot of good ideas!
That is great new. Do you already have rabbits? if so, what breed?
Good design.. I like the tubs.
Thanks
Love this
Thanks
Really nice video putting together your rabbit abode. I noticed, after my comment, that you built your rabbit house without plans. That's great. I liked seeing Junior again.
You are right! I enjoy the chances I get to have him come out and enjoy his time.
Looks really good. Your attention to detail is apparent in the work you did.
You can add a tile piece in each hutch to allow the rabbit to get off of the wire.
I appreciate the kind words. I just had to throw it together real quick since we kept having the dogs try and get them. We tried that that would rather get up on the platform.
Good job for a first attempt. Your lessons learned were super helpful. Thanks.
Appreciate it. Do you currently raise rabbits?
You showed me some good ideas for when I get ready to build my own hutch. Glad I found your video. 👍👍
Appreciate it. Hope you're able to share your build
This is awesome. I’m going to be making this with my boys. Thanks for the video.
You're welcome. What type of rabbits do you raise?
I love how she was like...I did ask for that. Your chuckle reminds me of me when my wife is like, "I told you"
😐🤣🤪
Nice job!
Appreciate it
Nice build 😎 Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, Ms. Lady. I'm glad you enjoyed
I really want to say i appreciate his video a lot. Thank you for making this, inspired the hutch i'll be building!
You're welcome. What breed of rabbits are you raising?
@@TheNakidGardeners Have a few rexes and a lop, working on getting harlequin pairs :)
Great vid. Thanks for sharing all your notes.
Glad you enjoyed it. Do you raise rabbits?
Amazing job! Now I’m going to have to build one!
Thank you! Glad this was helpful
Wow, your a 1st-Class craftsman! 👍
Wow, thanks! Don't know about 1st-class. But I will take it lol
Enjoyed the video, beautiful stuff
Thank you so much. I'm thinking of building a grow out pen for the kit if the ground gets too wet. What do you think the size should be.
Fantastic Channel and video ! Thank you.
Thank you too!
Looks great, thanks for sharing
Thanks. Do you raise meat rabbits? If so, which breed?
@@TheNakidGardeners I’m just now getting up and running but I’m getting New Zealand whites for meat.
For not having plans, that rabbit house came out awesome. As a 1st generation design , looks like you already have improvements for gen 2, that is great.
Thank you for the kind words. I'm going to carry some of the improvements to the grow out hutch. Do you raise rabbits?
@@TheNakidGardeners no I do not, but I have seen a lot of rabbit cage setup. You did a awesome job
Good morning awesome job. Do you have dimensions to share please.
@@berniefisher9472my question too and a list of lumber....I went in half with a first time homesteader...when it came time to "take there britches off"" they couldn't do it....I've just got a male and female back now I need three breeding slots and one Grow out ....
@@berniefisher9472I'm in SE. Louisiana,,more like most males will go sterile during very hot weather..we have averaged around a 100 + during this summer....so we are starting to cool down....so now it's breeding season...
Great video, definitely following
Going to be doing more farming and homesteading content on my other channel since we notice our gardener viewers don't tend to like this type of stuff
Great video. I love that you left in the mistakes. Cuz we all mess it up. Great ideas.
Didn't want people who built something like this run into the same mistake.
Awesome job quys
Thank you so much. I'm glad you enjoyed the video
THANK YOU BROTHA
You're welcome
Cool design!
Thanks. Do you raise rabbits?
@@TheNakidGardeners Yes, I do American chinchillas. I am going to do something similar to your setup in a new rabbitry/chicken coop where the chickens can process the rabbit waste in situ.
i like the catch for the poop. great idea
Thanks! We are going to start collect more this year
Nice job exactly how I would build . Functional strong fair for the rabbit and safe. Good work
Thank you
I built mine (from scratch with no plans) somewhat based on yours (definitely my favorite one on RUclips, thanks) but with some differences. First it's not on legs, the lower box sits on the ground and I built a ramp into the side with hinges so that it can be opened to let the rabbits into a chicken wire yard in the mornings and evenings. I'm not so worried about predators because our cattle dog patrols the area frequently. Also I built a lot of latches into the doors and lifting roof. Anything that wants to get in there is going to have to work really hard while also being torn to pieces by dogs.
Oh wow sounds interesting. If you have pics on IG please tag us so we can see it.
Awesome workmanship guys!
Thank you so much. Are you thinking about raising rabbits?
@The Nakid Gardeners I'd love to raise some. But I hear they are best raised locked in cages. If I could successfully colony raise them, I would.
@Celeste's _Nest depending on your property and your security, you could do colony. It would be more than this setup, probably
This is beautiful and brilliant. I'm going to have to show my husband, we need to do some re-arranging of our rabbits.
That's great! What type of rabbits do you raise, and how long have you been raising them?
@@TheNakidGardeners We are starting our second year with the rabbits. They are supposed to be Chinchilla, but there's got to be another breed in them because some of the first two litters have patches of white and blue eyes.
GREAT JOB SND YOU DOD BY YOURSELF
Tha k you. It was a lot of work, and I wish there were plans to go by to follow to make it quicker. Do you raise rabbits?
Just found this channel i love it. Im a brother my self i have a large garden i have goats holland lop rabbits and some dogs that like to eat rabbits ive lost 6 because they escape and the dog just desteoyed the geound level pen i had. I'll be constructing a pen tomorrow with this same plan. Thanks for sharing the knowledge. Much love ❤
Cool Appreciate the follow. I decided to add more of the animal content on my other channel www.youtube.com/@7FarmerSidney7
We have about 90 Flemish giants my grandfather is one of the top breeders/showers in the country and I’ve been looking how to improve our current hutches and these are great! Many thanks for the video
Oh wow! 90! That's amazing. How often do you breed them?
@@TheNakidGardeners 3 maybe 4 times a year, they can be bread up to 6 times but we rarely do it unless they produce super nice kits. But yeah it’s ALOT lol we go through a 50lb bag of feed every other day.
@@LikelyLagging I can only imagine. We go thru 50lbs of feed every three to four weeks
I need a FG buck!
Nice Thanks for the info
You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it. Do you raise rabbits?
I built my hay feeders out of of scraps of the wire i used for the bottom of my tractors, which is 2'x'4' rectangles. I rolled it in a cylender shape, and its a pretty good size
That's a great idea!
I'm going to have to remember that screwdriver trick. That was clever. Having a powered stapler sure is nice too, isn't it! I know I wouldn't give mine up. Overall I'm pretty darn impressed. I like the mortar tubs under there to collect the manure, that's a nice trick, and fairly affordable. The challenge with rabbits, that I hear from everybody, is that they chew up everything. So anything in the cage is going to need to be periodically replaced. I researched them a couple years ago, about 4?, and then we ending up moving temporarily into a place where we couldn't keep *any* livestock. Blegh.
But if we get out onto our desert property around the end of this year, we might add rabbits next year. They are a fairly high meat output for effort put in, easy to clean as I recall, and then there's always the pelts for personal use as a bonus. And manure for the garden! I don't see us being able to raise meat chickens on the ten acres for... possibly quite a few years. There's a lot of work needs doing to have any amount of pasture out there, and my focus is on getting a dairy animal sooner rather than later. We regularly go through a gallon of milk a day, and our intake is only increasing as our kids get old enough to consume more. So that sounds like goats are in our future.
Yea, we tried the manual stapler and still have it, but the automatic stapler is by far a game changer on the homestead.
The screwdriver or flathead was beneficial when trying to make sure the hardware cloth was taunt and stayed taunt throughout the process.
These are TAMUKs rabbits and bred for the Texas heat. Hopefully, within 30 days, we can have three litters of rabbits.
Awesome design and cool idea. We have coyote around and need to only ad a extra electric fence our GSD keeps most of them away but the fence keeps him away from them even though he knows they are part of his pack! Seriously but lol you never know. Thanks for the good idea. Like your quick cleaning dropping collectors. And touches like pocket holes. PS.good for you for not editing mishaps so we all can benefit and not make it ourself. Awesome job!
Thank you. We try to be as transparent as possible since we are very new to this lifestyle
I don't know about Peter but Playboy is going to enjoy his new enclosure, thanks a million.
Haha is that your rabbits name? How long have you been raising rabbits?
Looks good. I’ve heard on people putting pieces of 4x4 in with them as chew blocks to defer them from chewing on the cage.
Yea, they will need something to chew on to keep their teeth filed down
You built a mansion for those rabbits. Great job!
Haha, thanks. The grow out pen is going to be a revision of that
Nice design!! Great craftsmanship!! You must be from Houston 😂😂.We have to spend as much time with our boys as possible. This was great to watch. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your evening
So glad you enjoyed it. I love the African tour videos.
Looks great and love the tray idea for poop gathering for a garden
Thanks. Do you raise meat rabbits?
I liked your idea and used it. One thing i did was put the dividers on a hinge so they can be opened and closed to allow for the combining of cages.
Ahhh smart idea. Was thinking of possibly doing something like that. Awesome
Those are good looking pens
Thanks. Do you raise rabbits?
Very nice!
Appreciate it. Do you raise rabbits?
@@TheNakidGardeners No but my father in law raised them his whole life-, big stock. He always tried to get me interested in it. Maybe some day!
Cut a soup can open at both ends and stuff it with Hay . Keeps all the Hay together until they Munch it up . Let it hang out both sides. Keeps it from falling through the cage floor .
Great tip, thanks!!
Very niceeee
Thank you. Do you raising any rabbits
@@TheNakidGardeners no I don't wish I could 😊
Sydney, you and Jr did a fantastic job on this! For the record, listen to Tori next time😂. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you, GG. Yea, I was trying to be frugal and not spend a lot of money and waste materials on this.
I like Salatin’s idea of keeping chickens under the rabbits and wood shavings/sawdust. Nothing smells bad. The rabbit poop gets mixed up in the shavings by the chickens scratching it out. Collect your high quality compost off the floor twice a year! No cleaning!
Yea he has a great system in place. But for a small farm it isn't feasible for us. We keep our rabbits in a shaded area and rotational graze our chickens weekly. So far we have not had a bad smell. The Top Gun crew comes by and eat some of the rabbit food they drop and their poop. Besides the mud (due to rainy season) we don't get much smell.
OMG THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL!!! Please come build me one!!!❤❤❤❤
Hahaha I have to build another one for our girl when they have their kits. Video on that to come
I think the roof material is good for a rain catchment water system. Awesome design guys. Also I have a two story design where the rabbits can get away from animals that may come attack. It has helped tremendously. I am thinking of combining the hutch and colony Design. I have not done that yet but it’s something I am entertaining.
Thank you. We get comments about doing a water catchment system for the rabbits. But for days like today, it would help. We are below double-digit temps for a few days.
That’s a great hutch and you’ve given me inspiration. Thank you and hi from the UK
Cheers. What breed of rabbits are you raising?
@@TheNakidGardeners We’ve got two male Dutch Rabbits which we rescued
@@alexpage7292 awesome. Congratulations
@@TheNakidGardeners 😊👍🏻
Really enjoy your content ❤
Appreciate the kind words. Do you raise rabbits?
@@TheNakidGardeners yes New Zealand whites
So glad I found this, and y’all. Great content.
We are glad too! Do you raise meat rabbits?
@@TheNakidGardeners we are getting our first pair soon. The lady said they would be ready in about two weeks. We have a small farmstead, and we raise a bit of everything to fill the pantry. The better half has been wanting them since we got the property. I’ve held out for a couple years, anyway, lol.
@@TheNakidGardeners any favorite recipes or tips for newbies?
@@swanhill772 These were the first things I wanted on the property but the Mrs wasn't on board with it. So, it took me to find a dish online to prepare the rabbit for her and she feel in love with it. I just forgot what the dish was lol
@@TheNakidGardeners well, I guess I’ll be experimenting!! You should do a cooking video featuring rabbit!
I’m definitely excited for the cold manure! We have hoses, too, but they go down in the pasture and it’s hard to get any gathered from them, lol.
Glad I found this video I want to build some rabbit hutches. One thing I am going to do different is just let the poop fall to the ground, will attract composting worms and over the year the worms would add some castings from eating on the poop making it a even better fertilizer than it already is.
Oh we collect our poop to feed the fly larva to the chickens. Now that summer heat is here the flies are too
@@TheNakidGardeners that works.
Love the shirt
Thank you
Sir your feeder box nice
Awww thank you. Do you raise rabbits?
👉 By far best vid on the net, also the music ! 🎵🎵🎵 👍
Awww thank you. Do you raise rabbits?
I am a novice (*retired) after a break of 50 some years with no rabbits...). Dealing with bears, wolves, dogs, racoons and cougars up here in Canada....I am gonna build a rabbit-prison 🤓
Basically your design but with massive reinforcements ...
Thanks man, I enjoyed your vid big time 👍
Just nail down some metal flashing over the bottoms of your dividers will prevent then chewing on the wood. I had to do it because some of my dividers were made from pressure treated lumber.
Yea I was thinking of doing something like that.
For the chewing problem you can apply Tabasco diluted in a little water rub it on. It will stop the chewing for a little while
Oh I wouldn't waste sauce on that. I think what I would wind up doing is just covering it with some aluminum angle
chewing is not a problem.. you want them to chew. Prepare and plan for the chewing... its free dental work.
Great job 👍🏽. I watched the dog attack video, you do what you have to do, protect your investment.❤
Thanks for understanding 🙏
Hay cubes in a bag are great less waste and helps with their teeth, also giving them branches and things to chew on helps their teeth and the do less damage to cage and giving them toys for bordum busters
Yea we were giving them Timothy hay cubes. Now we mostly give them pine cones and branches from the pine and pear trees
Such an inspiration! Thank you.
Please explain the functions of the objects attached to each door.
Thank you.
Thank you. The plastic bottle their waterer. The metal object is a j feeder. We put their food in there.
@@TheNakidGardeners Much appreciated! Subscribed 💯.
@@donomondiolang5318 appreciate it. What type of meat rabbits do you raise?
Impressive layout table you have there.
Thank you. I love that table. sturdy and durable.
FEED OUR PEOPLE POWER / KNOWLEDGE ❤ GOD BLESS YOU.
We try. Thanks for stopping by and watching
I read recently that after the rabbits are done with the hay, it can be used as bedding for chickens for a few days too. Then you get even better compost :)
Possibly. Chicken will help compost any bedding
You just gave me the idea to built my daughter a rabbit hutch for suburban area 😊; Awesome job man
That is awesome!
His concept is totally wrong. You need to keep them together as a group and keep their needs in mind, everything else is just slavery.
@@teecount1 *Mr Brown's vouce* what the what? Lol
Nice job, I like that build, it was a simple design. Can you put a piece of metal aluminum angle iron on the divider bottom to keep em from chewing the wood.
Yes! We are considering that. Thank you for coming through 😊
It turned out great! Appreciate the tips, as we're in the planning process of building our hutch. Can you share what type of latches are on the doors?
Sure thing! It is a gate latch I got from the orange box store
@@TheNakidGardeners Thanks so much!
👍👍👌
👍🏾
I love the video! Thanks for sharing. I saw in many other videos about sore hocks on hardware cloth though. Did you have any issues with that after using the 1/2 inch by 1 inch cloth?
We had one new buck that had an issue with sore hocks, but we forgot to add a resting box and pads for him. Other than that, he healed up fine once we put those in. No others had an issue
@@TheNakidGardeners that is awesome man, thank you very much for the info. I think i am going to build something very similar!! 🙂
This is awesome! Thank you! What kind of hardware cloth did you is? Sorry if that’s a dumb question. New to all this. I see there is different gauge sizes and galvanized or not.
No question is a dumb question. The floor hardware cloth is 1/2 x 1. This hardware cloth is hard to find at the big box stores near me. I don't trust ordering it online. So when I see the box store has them I try to get it when I can, regardless if I need it or not at the moment. The rest of the hardware cloth is 1/2 x 1/2. I believe both are either 14 ga or 19 ga. I do not recall. I wanted coated hardware cloth but was only able to find the pvc coated and was limited on that so I used the galvanized on the exterior walls and the pvc coated around the feeders and waters.
Hope that answered your questions. What type of rabbits are your going to be raising?
@@TheNakidGardeners thank you so much this is very helpful. We have rex/ New Zealand mix they are currently in a chicken coop we transitioned into a rabbit cage. I want to get them off the ground and into something easier for us to clean.
@simplymisti932 anytime. Im about to build a grow out pen simce sometimes our fields get saturated from the heavy rain we get dueing the fall and winter. Plus, when we dont have any litter in there, it can act as a breeding pen. Good luck. Let me know how it works out.
@@TheNakidGardeners that’s awesome! Are you going to record a video? You definitely have a new subscriber here 🙏🏻 I will definitely update you on how it goes 😀
@simplymisti932 I want to. It is so time-consuming on recording DIY projects 😆
Looks great. Not criticizing, I just got a chuckle out of "after everything was put together I standed up the structure"
Lol appreciate it kinfolk
When I was a kid my dad built a rabbit hutch for my 3 4H rabbits. He added an alfalfa "bin" for them. Where your dividers are is where he (my dad) made the divider into a V shape with bigger wire so they could pull the alfalfa through but the rabbits couldn't get through. Hope that helps.
Cool idea. Do you still raise rabbits?
@TheNakidGardeners as of last wknd I'm back into raising them.
@@juiced-fightclub-hamster that is awesome! what breed are you raising?
@@TheNakidGardeners these are a New Zealand/Flemish mix. I got them from my daughter.
Awesome looking! What the internal dims of those bunny bays? I am trying to work out what size to make mine but 30”sq is what I keep seeing, these looks smaller but who knows! Space is very valuable here 😂
Thsnks. The internal size i believe is about 25x30x30. However, you can make them 30x30x30
Hey! Do you have a list of everything you used or names & quantities of what u remember. We love this hutch.
I do not. Sorry. I wish I did. Everyone keeps asking me about it. Lol.
Hi! Also in TX, what do you do for them with all the heat? Do you suggest little fans?
Little fans help from what we hear, but we haven't needed them in our shaded area that we keep ours. Our tamuks have been incredibly resistant to heat issues.
Put Drywall corner bead on the corners the rabbits are chewing on. We use it in horse stall when we have a chewer.
So far, it hasnt been as bad. We give them pine cones every day to decrease them chewing
Really like the manure catch system -
What did you say those are ? Something for cement?
Look at Home Depot/Lowes in the concrete area. XL concrete mixer
Very nice, Mr Nakid Gardeners! You are quite talented with building things. How many bunnies do you have now? (not including the ones in the 🥶 freezer~~~). I'm pretty sure I could have a rabbit 🐇 or two, but my dogs would not love me. Your bunnies live in a posh penthouse! Did you follow a kit or make the bunny house from your imagination? I like it!
Right now, we have five rabbits. Two bucks and three does. We just bred them a few weeks ago again since the Arctic Blast kind of frozen the last set of baby rabbits.
@@TheNakidGardeners I'm thinking you'll have so many baby bunnies by Spring!
@@Monkchip *crossing fingers*
This is a fantastic hutch! We just recently got bunnies for our homestead too and I'm currently building a hutch. We have 3 bucks and 1 doe...do you suggest keeping the bunnies all separated? Or is it ok for the 3 bucks to be together, and the doe separated?
That is awesome! Well we heard that it is best to keep the bucks and does separated if you are doing the cage method. But you might would need a separate cage area to bring the doe in with the buck.
May I ask why you went with three bucks and one doe and not have at least two does?
@@TheNakidGardeners Thank you so much! We plan on getting another doe (or 2), we had just gotten what the farmer had available to get started. I gotta keep that poor girl separated from them 3 bucks until I get a couple more females available. :)
