well, all the adult buns are moved in... still have the lop boys in their tractor and the cage of angora kits to figure out...but all the grown buns are moved. got most o the tray/pan/shoot system in too, ended up going for the corrugated plastic sheeting, its plastic thus moisture resistant...

me too! just a little moment to stop and appreciate the hard work :D held up overnight, cages still seem solid this morning (ill admit I was a tad worried about hanging all that weight) buns seem quite content. need to finnish up today, weathers not exactly cooperating with the rain in for the...

yeah I was worrying about getting the slope right to get the best slip and slide going... mabe the DPI hardwood wall paneling might work better, they have a smooth high gloss white that could work nicely... the oher option with that would be to run it sloped from high in back to low in fron and...

so i think i figured out what ill use, just not sure how to support/attatch things now... im going to use the cheap corrugated roof panels, there not quite long enough so ill have them slowed form 1 end down to the other and into an underbed box at one end...i can then just slid out the box as...

I have 3 cal x nz mixes in my rabbitry...
