          Hi and welcome!
          Slaying can help with potty training. It’s very difficult to potty train an unspayed girl bunny.

          As for digging and chewing, those are things rabbits do, some more than others. You can try to give her things chews allowed to chew (apple twigs, willow, willow toys, wood chew toys) and you can make her a dog box for digging in. Rabbits also like digging in fleece blankets. They will chew holes in the fleece, you should monitor as first so she doesn’t actually eat the fleece.

          It’s wonderful that you want your bun to be free roam! Its often more practical to start with an enclosure where you can keep an eye on her chewing- and potty habits, though. Not a cage, you don’t have to have a cage, but an x-pen or other type of fenced in enclosure. Young rabbits often need that until they are mature enough to be completely free roam.
