How big should a guinea pig hutch be for 2 guinea-pigs?

It doesn't matter what breed the rabbit is or what the rabbit looks like (although bigger rabbits of course need more room than smaller rabbits) -- the question of hutch size comes down to this: a hutch must be big enough to contain all the necessary supplies with enough room left over for the rabbit to stand up to full height, stretch out to full length, and hop a few paces at least. Any rabbit enclosure needs a litter box, hay source, water source, hidey-hole/nest area (a place to hide whenever feeling anxious -- this could be as simple as a cardboard box), comfortable resting surfaces, and some toys/play structures/diversions. See the related questions below for more info and links.

Should you get a rabbit hutch or a rabbit run?

Both.If you want to keep your rabbit outdoors, you need a hutch and run. You need a hutch that is rabbit-proofed to keep your rabbit safe when you're not there to watch. You need a run so that your rabbit can exercise and play and socialize with you every day.Consider keeping your rabbit indoors. It's widely recommended. It's much easier to keep your rabbit happy, healthy, and safe when she/he is indoors.If you keep it outdoors:The hutch needs to be secure from predators. Spend a lot of time making sure it's secure: many people have been (sadly) surprised at how wily predators can be. It should be secure from prowling humans as well. It needs to be roomy, too. It should include:a litter boxa water sourcea hay sourcea hiding area1comfy resting surfacesprotection from the elements2toys/diversions/play structuresenough room left over to stretch out, stand up on hind legs, hop a few times1 Rabbits have died of fright when a predator is stalking them outside their hutch. They need a place to go where they can't be seen, where they can feel secure. This could be a cardboard box, or something more elaborate.2 Rabbits need protection from wind, damp, heat (they need airflow and shade), extreme cold, extreme heat (bring them inside; provide air conditioning, fans, frozen tiles, frozen water bottles, etc.)The run should let the rabbit really run around. Stock it with play structures, herb garden, etc. Your rabbit needs at least four hours of exercise and socializing every day. You should also observe your rabbit daily and keep track of its behaviours (drinking, eating, peeing, pooping, energy, mobility; that way you'll know when something is wrong before it's too late).


What do you need for a rabbit that is going to give birth?

Is it possible for a fox to breed with a rabbit?

It probably can't actually get into the hutch unless there is a hole/gap in the wire front or something, or if the catch on the door is loose. However the fox doesn't actually need to get into the hutch to harm the rabbit, just the fact that the rabbit can see or smell (or even hear) the fox could cause it to become frightened or shocked. Rabbits can actually die from fright so be very careful to make sure the hutch is in an area where a fox can't access it. If you really care about keeping the rabbit from harm you could consider keeping your rabbit indoors, if not as a permanent "house rabbit" then you could at least keep it inside overnight.
