🏠Bedding & habitat for the Dutch
Dutch : A standard pen of at least 2 square metres with daily free-roaming time suits it well. Being sociable, it thrives in a neutered pair, which means doubling the sleeping areas and hideouts.
This is the structural purchase — and where mistakes cost the most: too small, badly placed, badly sized. Our guides give serious minimum dimensions for a rabbit, the materials that last, and the traps of entry-level products.
Plan at least 2 m² of permanent pen space for a dwarf rabbit, plus daily exercise: a cage alone is never enough.
