Hello all,
I am have been studying various rabbit articles for a year or two and have finally taken the step and purchased some beautiful Rex rabbits for breeding. I have decided to go with a semi colony experience for them, its more of a rabbit coop as we call it. The general structure is a lean-to design behind out shed with walls and a wood floor made with left over deck boards. I am currently using pine shavings for bedding which seems to work well, although the wood does get wet. I am curious to know if I can use the oak leaves that I collect in the fall as bedding as well, they would need to be dry of coarse. I already collect them for the chicken coop bedding and would love to stop having to purchase pine shavings. What are your thoughts? Should I simply tear up the flooring and have bare earth with buried wire?
