    Default Hutch Security

    Just a quick tip, if you have outdoor hutches please consider replacing the turn latches with a hasp and padlock as it is amazing how easily cats and dogs can open these latches. I have also seen rabbits rattle the door until the latch falls and they are out. Bolts are not much use as outdoors as they are perfectly easily opened from inside too, I have a couple of indoor bucks who shake their doors until they open the bolt!!

    Yes and any little visitors can quite easily open the hutches to have a look and not shut them properly

    i use nails through holes with a latch this is perfect and noone ever escapes or gets in. also locks placed downwards and to the side...certainly saves the dogs opening them, like my last dog did!

    They are doing fine, next to Iggy the biggest stud in town. The wee one is really coming out of her shell and takes food from me no bother. What a carry on the escape was! My heart was pounding till I worked out where they were and then himself came home and we cornered them.
    This is great having a pets corner.
