  I have a 3 foot tall pen (36in) and I was wondering if my Netherland dwarf bunny could jump over it. He can jump over his 2 foot pen but hasn’t only jumped it 1-2 times. He’s about 2 pounds so really small that’s why I’m questioning if he can jump the 3 foot tall pen.

  If he can grip onto something to push off perhaps, but from floor to clearing, most likely not.
  
  Wick is also a Netherland and actually has bigger legs than usual plus a smaller body size, so he’s an agile jumper. Despite this, I haven’t seen him do three feet. He’s never been put in a situation where he would want to or need to though, so I can’t guarantee.

  My nethie, Bombur, can clear 3 feet. I dont know exactly how high, but he can get atleast six inches over 3 feet with ease. I am thankful he is afraid of heights

  When we first got Gina, who was maybe 1.6 kg, 3 foot wouldn’t even challenge her, it needed 4 foot to keep her in. Gina can jump almost vertically when she wants, making hopping over a 3 foot barrier simple.
