Do you have minor carpentry skills? Have some scrap lumber? have a brain that s working? can you Build a "Box" for them.
We Need a couple different sizes. One size can work for now. We need help.
If you aren't good at designing, try Pinterest for Box ideas or ask Google. I can save you some time. I will send you a Link you can simply Click on to see what needs to be done. Just Ask
Needed, a Volunteer OR multiple Volunteers to Build Bunny "Hideout Boxes"
Look at Pic 3: He Says, Is my WINTER Box done yet? We Need "Hideaway Boxes" Built.
These are NOT complicated. I have templates. Trace the shape, cut them out and put a few screws in. I can put the screen on the back if you find that difficult. I have Rolls of Screen here. I Simply lack the time.
Pic one and two is a bunny box for Babies I built for the summertime. Open at the top on the left and covered to the right side with 2 wood slats and a concrete block, pic 2. 4 baby bunnies lived in it for 3 months. They have outgrown it. They each need their Own Box's now.
My husband Began a small pet Sanctuary during Covid. Many People could No Longer care for their Pets. So he began to Save Bunny's and Hens.
We are also looking for People do Donate 1 or 2 - 50 lb. Bags of Bunny Pellets. These are available at Agway in Concord and Hooksett.
Pic 4 and 5 is a rectangular box with a "Shed Roof" on the front. Simple. The rest of the pictures are actually " Nest Boxes" for a Moms Baby Babies to be in for 3 - 4 weeks.
But when laid on its side it is a "Hideout Box" for the Moms or "Does" actually it works just as Well for the Males or "Bucks". This is built from info gotten from a Video on U tube. If you are interested go to U tube and watch a few. I will end you the link to the VIDEO of the Box's we Prefer.
I also have templates you can trace onto your wood.
Go to U tube if you are unsure of what we Need. We have half a Dozen here that you can come see. Rough cut lumber is ideal but, They don't need to be out of New Lumber. Any lumber and even Plywood is Ideal for the Bottoms. We have plywood.
Do NOT use Strandboard.
Wanted, Volunteer to help Build Bunny " Boxes" The Bunnies live outside, but when the Temps are 32 or below and the wind is blowing or its raining and cold, Sleeting, they need a box to cuddle themselves in and to Feel Safe! If they were wild, they would be underground in a Burrow. They need a Box for the Weather X-Tremes! They actually use them all year long, they cuddle up in them often. That is their "Safe Place".
I work a LOT to pay for the Agway Visits. Many 100s of Dollars! every Month. Can you build a few boxes. They need to be about 12 - 14 inches high and 20 inches long and perhaps a foot deep (front to rear). An enclosed box with an Opening on the long side. I have some lumber if you run out or just need some. If you write tell me a little about yourself. Thanks
My husband takes in Unwanted Hens and Bunnies. We are looking for Metal Wire Pet Crates as well. We use all sizes but the larger the better. My husband builds the Large Crates into permanent homes for the Teen and Adult Bunnies.
We are Gladly Accepting Donations of any Items used to House or Care for Hens and Bunnies. Those are the 2 animals my husband takes in. They have a good life here and YOU can Help. Any Donations will help. If you don't have an Item, you can Purchase / Donate 50 lb bags of Rabbit Pellets # 16 at Agway in Concord or Hooksett and my husband will meet with you. They are 22.00 each. If Cash works better, we can work with that as well. You are welcome to see the Pets before donating Cash, to see the NEED is Real!
Wanted / Needed small pet portable fencing AND Metal Pet Crates, We can use Unwanted Bunny Hutches, and Dog Houses as well. Dog houses get remodeled to suit the Bunnies. My husband will repair or modify them as needed. He is a handyman.
I have to add this: We need to know some Information, tell me what size it is, where you are located and send a couple pictures, Please. We also Need to know how to go about getting the Item you are offering. We cannot travel large Distances.
