what age to put outside
what age would you recomend to put japs outside in a rabbit hutch, was just thinking as the weather was quite mild at the moment, in fact glorious sunshine today. my babies are still too young but i want them out asap to give them a chance to toughen up to last the winter. what age would you suggest at this time of year?

Re: what age to put outside
thanks guys, they are off heat now but obviously inside the house is warm.
was just wondering as if i left it too long i may have them inside all winter as i am a bit soft, but i want them settled to outside before it gets really cold.

Re: what age to put outside
I put some 4 week olds out earlier today while it was warm. I scooped them back into the box and brought them inside as soon as I started to notice them huddling together and cheeping.
