"Hi! This is Ashlee from Pet Planet in Riverton, Utah. Today, I'm here to tell you about how to make a bunny hutch or rabbit hutch. One of the best materials to use on a rabbit hutch is metal because it is more superior, that way it does not soak up odor and it is easier to clean so that's a good suggestion right there. Also, they recommend that you use hardware cloth for your bunny cages. You could also use a chicken wire and a 2X4 wood to make your rabbit cage but I suggest you know, the metal is a little bit easier. Also, it's a good idea just to make sure that when you do build a fence that is safe and secure for your bunny and it's at least four times the size of a bunny.
