When I added rabbits to my beginner urban homestead I knew I wanted to use permaculture practices and have fun!! The Bunny Village was conceived.
Joel Salatin owns Polyface Farms. They rebuild the soil with regenerative agricultural practices. He has chicken tractors and a “Raken House”.
Justin Rhodes uses rotational grazing and chicksaws. He is a teacher and leader with his Great American Farm Tour and new docuseries, Rooted.
Jessica Soward at Roots and Refuge is known for Cheap Garden Trellises. I’ve learned about seed starting methods I will apply to our city garden.
I learned about the rabbit colony method and liked it. On a small city lot I needed to make my rabbit set up cute and fun like Lennon the Bunny. While our rabbits were inside we learned about litter box training, free roam, diet, cages, toys, bunny proofing, bunny village, rabbit 101 care, and how cute & funny rabbits can be!!
We are glad you can join us!!

This was very helpful. Thank you.

[@eddiequinn1335]

Very interesting video and informative. I built an 8 by 6 foot shed with 2 external runs and ramps. Happy bunnies.

[@cc18rn]

thanks for the video

[@RemsFamily]

love your energy... should try it in my videos lol

[@WildflowerFarm417]

Ha! I saw it in a YT tutorial. He basically said whatever your top energy level is, double it for the camera because you lose so much on video. Thanks for the feedback.

[@fancyotter123]

That's a cool setup

[@WildflowerFarm417]

Thank you. I'm getting ready to build an even better when I think. I needed something a little more sturdy and easier for me to harvest the poop and give them food.

[@nbfarmandpets]

Love this channel, thank you for sharing about rabbit keeping, they are adorable, maam☺️ New friend here❤️

[@WildflowerFarm417]

Thanks and welcome

[@heidigilman1941]

Thanks just going to get a couple bunnies, picked up a used dog kennel for outside and going to put a wire roof for hawk and owl protection, also thought I should bury some wire mesh for digging predators

[@WildflowerFarm417]

Remember the space requirements and give them shelter from the rain. I have fencing on the ground so they don't dig. Let me know how it goes!!

How do you keep your bugs away from your bunnies? Being on the ground like they are. Great video beyond that.

[@reneebrown2968]

I've only got one in-house bunny but he's a dwarf so he's little. My meat rabbits are all on my back porch.

[@WildflowerFarm417]

Different systems work for different folks. I have my does running in the backyard right now. The bucks are locked up. It's what works right now. :)

[@jaynenewman7691]

Thanks for all the great advice but what about hawks, they can just fly in?

[@WildflowerFarm417]

The Hawks didn't bother my rabbits.

[@caseyscarrotpatch]

How do you keep your buns from burrowing and getting out? 🤔 I totally love your bunny yard. I think it's great for the buns to have room to run. I have cages outside and I let my buns out of their hutches to run in the bun runs. It makes them very happy.

[@WildflowerFarm417]

They were never out long enough to dig.

[@caseyscarrotpatch]

@@WildflowerFarm417 oh, I see, very nice!!

[@jennezya9200]

Where did you get the gray hutch? “Flowers” hutch

[@WildflowerFarm417]

I bought it on Amazon.

[@caitlyn9089]

Rabbits live longer if they live inside and it's more beneficial but this is a good setup :)

[@WildflowerFarm417]

Thanks for the feedback!!

[@shelbymakuski3531]

I have 8 bonded incredibly spoiled buns with a ton of beds, blankets, toys, chews, baskets etc. As long as you socialize with them get them fixed (due to cancer risk), lots of space, weatherproofing and a high quality diet they with thrive and love you mine all love coming up to me and sitting in my lap allowing me to pet them I've had 4 pass away (3 from old age at 12 and 13 and last last one passed away at 8 even with medical help and antibiotics as he had a bad infection in his foot when we rescued them) they only don't live a long really good life if you don't take really good care of them or spend time with them

[@halloweenharley7407]

Your rabbits are adorable! But I do have one question, Are you bonded with your rabbits? Do they come to you when your around? Because living outside can create a since of separation and depressing relationship with your rabbits. Yes, they may have each other, but they will just accoicate you with the food lady, not anything else. Anyways have a good day!

[@WildflowerFarm417]

We raised them inside for several months. They all still come to me and let me pet them but I don't know if that's only because I bring food or because they actually like me.

[@WildflowerFarm417]

If you are still keeping your rabbit indoors you might be interested in this video I made about litter box training your rabbit. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6KllZmmjpaqprs

Rabbits on the ground get bugs then they die

[@WildflowerFarm417]

18 months and no bugs. I put diatomaceous in the cages so that might help.
