        Hi guys, 

        Long time since I posted here, if any of your guys remember my bunny Paget.
        Anyway just a quick question to see if you guys think she’s getting too fat. It is winter here, I’m not sure if rabbits gain more weight/fur during the winter.

        Also I’m planning on re-doing her C&C condo soon, and just wondering whats a good height for her?

        You can see in the photo that I have the 2nd floor about 1.5 of the squares, since that’s enough room for her to stand up, but I see most people just use the height of one square, and she does seem to enjoy having a more tunnel/burrow-like space. 

        Thanks guys!

          I would keep it at 1.5. She needs to have space somewhere to stand up to her full height with ears upright to stretch or periscope if wanted. My condo is 2 levels, the first level is 2 grids high, the second level is only 1 grid high, but they at least have the full height if they want it.

          I don’t think she’s fat, she looks a little tubby in the last photo, but it could just be her position. It’s not unusual for an animal to put on weight over winter either.
