Now that our last two French Lops are gone, I decided this is an excellent time to powerwash all our cages - our currently low rabbit population will make powerwashing cages a whole lot easier - for once I won’t have to figure out where to put all the rabbits when we clean the cages - with the French Lops gone, I now have enough carriers for everyone!
Powerwashing is such a huge task - I really don’t look forward to it - but it surely is needed. Since we feed hay everynight, our cages sides seem to have more of a hay/dirt build up than those who don’t feed hay - and the powerwashing really cleans them up nicely.
Time to rearrange the rabbitry too - since I’ve decided to sell two of our larger stackers, I’ll be able to rearrange the rest into a more easily accessible design - right now things are tight in some spaces and pan cleaning of a few cages is a feat of physical acrobatics, so I can’t wait to make that all easier.
Beautiful weather finally…cooler….yesterday my rabbitry gauge showed only about 35 percent humidity inside! How nice!!! I wish it could stay like this year round.
After I get all my cages cleaned, and the sale cages out, the rearranging done - then I’ll move rabbits around. Now my Hollands will be in the larger French Lop cages - I am sure these active little rabbits will just love it! My Polish will go into the cages I currently use for my Hollands - they are all 24×30 and 24×24. I decided to keep my two stackers of 6-hole cages. I’ve never liked these smaller cages for my Hollands, (24×18) and in fact haven’t even used many of the cages in these stacks - but they are plenty big enough for Polish, even full grown Polish, so they will stay here!
Oh….if you are looking for some nice cages, I do have the two stackers for sale - read about it on our French Lops For Sale page at our website.
Well…..enjoy your weekend, I certainly will!
