What do you use the top tray for? Do you lay anything down on it or just let bunnies lay on metal?

I use it for my chickens. I have pine shavings down for them and they lay eggs in the top section. I have multiple coops so usually only the younger chickens actually sleep in it since there is no roost. This coop wouldn't offer much protection against predators on it's own but I have it inside a much larger run that is secure so it doesn't matter much. This coop does make an excellent coop for chicks. I use this as my brooder, putting a light on one end on the ground with a tarp over it to keep the heat in and leave the other end open for them to cool off when needed. Works out perfectly.

I use newspaper and a litter box but my rabbits chewed the edges so much I eventually turned the tray upside down and again I use newspapers on upside down tray.

It would be a little work but you would have to attach metal wiring and a catch tray. The. You would have to put some legs on It to make the tray removable. That is unless you have your rabbit potty trained.

You could put a small litter box (12x12 inch max) in there but it would be crowded. Also, the wire mesh floor fits into the black pan. Which slides into two rails under the cage. So if you don't use the wire mesh/pan, you won't have a floor and the rabbits can get out. We have two large Californian rabbits in ours, which is pretty crowded. But the door is open and they roam freely during the day. They are put in at night and we have had no problems.

We use a layer of litter called "Yesterday's News" on the bottom of the pan and put the grate over top of it, since everything just falls though the grate, the litter is just there to soak up the pee. You need the biggest one they have for rabbits, I got this one for my rats. It's not big enough for a rabbit.

The bottom of the item is designed to fit over a post to secure the globe. The bottom of the globe is not flat. However, it appears strong enough to push it down into a reasonably soft ground to help stablize it. We have squirrels that take a great delight in knocking it over from our deck railing. Maybe rabbits are not as mischievious and the ground might stabilize it enough. Good luck.

no tipping here.. altho for a bunny, you might want to consider a lower entry way.. this is about a 6 inch side to get into the box. then again, bunnies hop, so.. :) good luck!

I have a rabbit in mine, but here is my thought:You can use the cage without the grate, though the blue pan is pretty deep. You could also try to cover it with linoleum. Just make sure not to leave edges exposed for them to nibble on. If you did that you would have to do something to prevent urine and feces from running off the floor and out of the cage.

Our bunnies generally eat the grass mats (or shred) and/or poop on them, so they don't last very long. The best thing to use to protect their feet are plastic cage mats which you can put over the wire. They have big enough slots to let the urine and some of the poop go through. You can also clean them pretty easily. I don't know if they have them online, but I found them at Quality Cage in Portland, Oregon.

Mine came with a tray, but no wire grate. Since most rabbits tend to eliminate in one corner of the cage, I bought a cheap corner plastic potty from Pet Co made for that purpose. Because the rabbit liked to turn it over, I use floral wire to hold it in place.

Since I use bedding, I plan to nail a wood floor panel with metal wheels to the bottom. It will give it extra stability as well as make it easier to move and clean. Maybe add some plastic tarp to avoid the rabbit urine from seeping into the wood.

My rabbit could jump over it. We always put a sheet on top of it. The plastic liner on the bottom my rabbit ate.

I use a drying mat underneath mine because it sits on the countertop. The drying mat looks much nicer than the tray in my opinion.

no its wood with a sheet of aluminum covering. It's easy to pull out and clean,wash and slide in again. I will say you have to lock bunny's out (on the outside portion,while your cleaning inside of cage though). I love mines, plus the top cage you can fit a nesting box for mama bunny.

I agree. Mine was on the floor for years, but I just got rid of it and put my Russian tortoise in a big plastic tub with soil. The wooden house makes the substrate kind of dry

there's a top level & you can close it off from the bottom. the nesting box is on that level too. the bottom has a ramp that goes up to that top level which is where the level door is .so the only bad thing about the top level is the tray has to be pulled out to clean whereas the bottom is a screen that we nailed on because we didn't want to rest it on the ground. that way it could be used for a second rabbit. we also added legs so it could be off the ground. we are happy with it & you should be able to put 2 bunnies in there.

They eat this mat. It's just made of straw out hay. I have a rabbit house wooden. I doubt believe they need to protect their feet. Mine she's fine on the wire bottom part. He sleeps on the wood side . 5 yrs now and he's fine.

Hi,I would use the bottom groove and the solid tray. The top is for the broiler. Though I guess you could heat a piece of pizza on the bottom and the broil it briefly to extra crisp the top.
