I'm building my bunny condo! I just finished the third floor last night. I will take some more specific pics of it next time I work on it. Franz has been in the bunny room for a few days now! Also I have the bed I got off of the binkybunny site and he doesn't nibble or potty on it so it's great! He looks cozy in it. Here are some pics of the bunny room. The only thing for humans is this big metal storage cart that bunny can't get in and also a folded uncured wooden drying rack I don't care if he chews on lol.  I put paper on one end of the room cause he's still being potty trained



You can see part of the condo when I first started it:

Midnight, can you tell me what flooring you used in your condo? I kind of like the design of your condo a bit better than what I'm doing. I am planning on using cheap grass mats (peters seagrass) attached with twine through drilled holes in plywood which I am having cut for the levels. I think my dowel rods are too small... They're 1/2" but I an use my 75lb zipties to hold them up. I tested it and it works! Not super solid but I did some stress tests and I think it would ve good for even a Flemish giant. I'm thinking the plywood is not such a good idea anymore because of the peeing thing. I still have time to change my mind! Does coroplast have good traction? I'm mostly worried about traction. My other idea is carpet velcroed on the plywood. Can't decide!

These are amazing! I have a spare room that's too small to be used as a room and I'm currently using it as a storage room for suitcases and old books etc. I think it'd make a great bunny room for me to leave her in when I go back to work. I'm gonna clean it out next week and take pictures and see what you guys think?

Sounds like a good idea --- how big is it? Does it have any windows/ventilation?

Ah. No. It doesn't actually. It's like a giant walk in wardrobe is the best way to describe it. I wouldn't be worried about the heat though, it never gets over 20c here. Would that be a problem?

 

I'll take pictures when I've cleaned it out tomorrow and show you!

I just got my bunny today and already have a room for it. it is the entire upstairs, you see my house was at one time a barn until remodeled it has a kitchen and living room down stairs and upstairs is the bedroom with a bath and toilet. but I did some baby proofing wks ago and put a gate up at the top of the stairs since my little man is going to be turning 1 next month. So basically all I have to do i put the bunny in and close the gate. I also plan on building a room outside for my bunny as well, I will get pics as soon as I can.

it is not all the way clean yet but I do need to know if I need to get power cords off the floor, just incase the bunny decides to chew into one.

im sooo excited!!! i am moving in june and my buns are going to get a room all to their own and i am going to put a chair and table in there for me, if they are ok with it of course so i can sit with them and read. the room isnt the biggest, 10x12 with very appropriate green walls, and 2 windows as well as a ceiling fan but i think they will love it!!!! right now they are in an x-pen and i am thinking about adopting a bun from the rabbit rescue. i have just fallen inlove with one they have there and well, doesnt hurt to inquire.....right??

the only problem is that the floor is carpet, and atticus is notorious for destroying carpet so i was wondering if anyone has any cost effictive ideas to cover the carpet to protect it and to make the floor easy to clean? i am going to round the room with some x-pens to protect the walls and baseboards and would like to have something that can be folded up the xpen on the inside so their poops that dont make it to the litter box stays in their area and not between the xpen and the baseboards. any at all?

new1bunny, yes please do move the cords out of the way, it can be very dangerous for a bunny to chew an electrical wire. Also, it can cost a lot of money to replace chewed wires.

Please read this link about bunny-proofing your bunny room: http://www.binkybunny.com/BUNNYINFO...fault.aspx

That is one amazing bunny condo!  How many storage cubes, ties, et cetera did it take to create?

I am planning on starting my bunny room today! I live in an open studio that is just too big for Emily to roam around while I am at work so I am going to use part of her x-pen to make a large "room" and it will be all hers so I do not have to worry so much about cords and he needing out of her cage at 5am! :/ maybe she will let me sleep a little longer so its a revamp of the house this weekend!

My question what are the main things I should have in my bunny room and how do you keep hay from getting all over we have concrete floors so I need to keep it somewhat clean or it ends up everywhere! I think I will buy rugs to put down that are very low pile. She will still get to run around but only when I am home I think that will help me feel like she is safe while I am at work! You guys are all wonderful and I am so jealous of some of your bunny rooms!

My living room has become a bunny room.
There are only 2 chairs and everything else in the room is for the bunnies. Did not really plan it that way . . . but . . .
Bun - Buns!

I would love to have a dedicated bunny room... oh, wait, what am I saying... my living room and bedroom are the bunny rooms now. 

But seriously, I would love to have a bunny room made to order, so to speak.  It would have the perfect hay storage containment system, for starters...  And an employee to clean it up .
