    Rabbits

    Which type of cage is considered to be the ideal for rabbits?Rabbits, Rabbits, Rabbits (calliscals07)

      All-wire cages.. All-wire cages are considered to be the ideal because they are simple in structure, very easily cleaned, they are quite sanitary for regular breeds, and they allow good ventilation. They can also be stacked when used with supports and trays. Carrying cages are just that, for carrying the rabbits. They are not to be long-term cages. Plastic cages that are solid floored are acceptable, and maybe necessary for breeds like Belgium Hares (they require solid floors), but they require cleaning at least twice a week, they hold fumes, heat, and stale air. They also cannot be stacked. Chicken wire, wooden framed cages are also acceptable, but the wood can be chewed by rabbits if the cage is not built right. Also, on the edges of the floors where the wire connects the wood, urine and feces can build up, creating a stinky, unsanitary mess.
