Pulled the wire apart?! My goodness.
From pic it’s hard to tell how big it actually is but I’m thinking maybe a bit small for 2. Plus, you don’t know how big Anya is going to get. What about lining the condo walls with wire mesh? You’d still be able to see in and out but lil teeth can’t get to the ties or wires. I’ve not done the condo thing so don’t know if that would work or not. What about asking if you can rent one from this lady to see how it would work out? You could make a ramp up to the door way using wood ans maybe some grid sides – though I don’t think that’s necessary at that height.

Have you considered just getting a puppy xpen instead?

What shots do rabbits need?

What shots do rabbits need?

In Australia we have vaccination available for calici virus (Viral Hemorrhagic Disease).  Domestic rabbits are at risk here because this virus is deliberately released here to ‘control’ wild rabbit populations.

I think it’s too small for 2 buns. It would probably be big enough for just one small bun, but with the two they really need more room. I second Beka’s option of getting an xpen! It’ll give them twice as much room.

ifeel..dumb doing this but..what does NIC mean?

x-pens are expencive!! at least i cant find any cheep ones i never can findcheep ones

NIC means neat Idea cubes, (I was confused at first too) They are also called organize it cubes.

X-pen’s are expensive, but they are well worth it. If you want more room for less money and want to use an x-pen, then you could always use the wall as one or two sides of the enclosure, thats what I have done.

Here is my very inexpensive idea….(I have got to get around to getting a picture of it!) I took my basic rabbit cage and in it I have Willie’s litter and food, water. I have the door open and off of it, I have a pen my husband made for me. He took a large metal dog crate and unhooked the cube, then reconnected it to make a very large, collapsable pen! We can take it outside, or anywhere. Right now it makes Willie’s Larger pen. Inside of it I have a few toys and a rabbit condo with a ramp made from cardboard that he loves more than anything else in the world (from this site) worth every penny! My mom gave me the dog crate, she didn’t use it anymore. It didn’t cost me a cent! So basically with a couple crates, you could do a LOT with them! If you can find someone who has one, and doesn’t use it anymore, that would be awesome!

Here in upstate NY the only thing they need is rabies and that is if they will have outdoor play and/or have to be kept somewhere while you are away.

One 4×4 foot xpen is adequate for two buns, with daily exercise time (Not sure on how this converts to metric). Xpens are very stable (obviously, they are designed to contain large dogs!) I’ve done the NIC grid fence thing before… and it works… but zipties are always popping off and it’s more rickety.

An xpen will be more resilient. They don’t have a plastic coating… is that what they are chewing off?

If it is the zipties they’re mostly chewing off, you can use j-clips on the grids instead. They come in a range of sizes and uncoated and cannot be chewed off. They’re cheap but you have to get j-clip pliers, too.
