What kind of setups do you have for your breeders? Does everyone use all wire cages, or do some use hutches? Barn or lean to? Does anyone have a mobile setup? Pros and Cons? What would you change if anything? I would love to see pictures too! Trying to decide on a setup for when I get my rabbits, hopefully at the end of this month. Planning on getting 3-4 Silver Foxes, 1 buck and 2-3 does. These will be my first rabbits so I am starting from scratch and want to start right!

We have a big insulated shed for our breeders who are all in metal cages. We also have a large outdoor hutch for overflow and we are building a “tractor” for the summer. This will be a large run on wheels so we can move rabbits around to graze.
We are breeding meat rabbits with mostly Flemish giants and some California. We are focusing on breeding in colour lines so I have one each of black, tan, and white males and we have a tan female and the two California females.
