I need help to build an ideal rabbit hutch?

this is my first time having a pet...i decided to have 2 rabbits (probably one male the one female).....do you think an indoor cage (keeping it in the veranda) --of 3ft length %26amp; 3 ft breadth aluminium cage with a solid base would be enough to accomodate 2 rabbits....do you think putting in soil %26amp; growing grass inside....%26amp; making a little pond type of thing %26amp; a little shelter made of wood making it cozy with moss %26amp; straw would be even better?I need help to build an ideal rabbit hutch?
If you're going to have a male and a female together, they need to be fixed.





If you let them breed, you'll be up to your behind in baby rabbits within a few months. Rabbits are over populating shelters right now. They really can't be sold for profit, and shelters are full to bursting.








The cage should be as big as you can manage. 3x3 is way to small for 2 rabbits. For 2 bunnies, you need at least twice that, and they'll still need some time out of the cage to stretch their legs.





Rabbits should be housed indoors.





Remember, rabbits can jump almost 4 feet straight up. You need to have a lid on this cage.





Making one is actually slightly more expensive than buying one. It's also a pain in the butt because you have to make it escape proof, and safe for the bunnies.





Just head to the pet store and get the biggest cage they have.
