  My bunnies are house bunnies. Weather forecast for this part of Indiana says it will be 90 this weekend in low of 70 at night. What temperature should we keep our air conditioners. In order to save on electricity. to keep our furry family members comfortable.

  Our AC is set at 78 in the summer. No issues.

  Rabbits are at risk of heat stroke when temps get between 80-85 degrees F, so if you can keep temps below 80 that would be safest for them. But if that’s not always possible, there are some good tips for helping them keep cool here: https://binkybunny.com/infocategory/cooling-tips/
  
  I didn’t have AC in the past and my bunnies really appreciated frozen bottles, ceramic tiles, and fans.
