I know some people will say rabbits are fine and can cope with the cold but, for peace of mind (a neighbours rabbit sadly died over the winter - which they think was cold related as it was young and healthy etc), i want to go down this route.

I had heard about using heat lamps for chickens that don't produce light, but I'm hesitant with that option? So - looking for some feedback from people who have used any of these methods to keep the hutch relatively warm in the colder months.

My sister and her husband live a few hours away and during the summer they stay in the shed or a hutch in their garage. Mine are all 7 years old now and are outside all year without any problems - indeed they mostly choose to sit in their runs come rain, wind, ice or snow!if you use a heat lamp, just make sure Theo has a space he can get away from it in case he gets too hot.

I would make sure to wrap the cord in a cord protector to keep him from chewing it and I wouldn't run the heater all day long.While none of us can predict the weather, there are a few simple steps we can take to make sure our rabbits are safe, warm, happy and healthy as the colder weather descends. The electric heater is well outside the cage on cement so it’s not near anything flammable and even if it were, if it’s not on completely level ground it shuts off so it being knocked over and rolling into something isn’t a concern.

I am more inclined to go with the kennel heat pad as it has a built in thermostat - the other 2 would need this adding. What makes the Hottie so safe is the liquid is none other than natural water and a small amount of anti-mould preservative. We covered our hutch with foil covered insulation on the back, roof and sides, just taped it in place, and had a hutch cover on top of that.

the heat pad is suitable for use with animals (dogs, cats and rabbits etc) so again that shouldnt be a problem. Just be careful not to use a blanket that is too large- you don't want your rabbit getting tangled in it.
