Rabbit
Accessories
Industry has developed numerous products that help
rabbit keepers in the day-to-day management of their pets. These
accessories are designed to facilitate cleaning, feeding and other
routine tasks. Some of these accessories include:
(I)
Rabbit Nests
Modern rabbit nests have a simpler design with
preformed smooth edges that gives solidity to the nest without any sharp
protrusions that would hurt the doe or its litter. Some nests come with
detachable liners that can be removed, discarded and replaced with each
new litter. Thus every litter is born in a clean nest.
(II)
Nest Box Warmers
Nest box warmers are pads that electrically heat up
and disseminate heat inside the nest box so that the doe and its litter
are more comfortable. Nest box warmers come with internal thermostats so
that the temperature is kept within a range so that the rabbits are not
overly heated. The cord is adapted to rabbit rearing with spring style
chew guard. Safety features such as internal overload protector prevents
accidental shocks due to short circuit or damage to the electrical
components.
(III)
Resting Board
 Resting boards are pads that provide the rabbit with
a soft resting place from the harshness of the wire flooring. Plastic
pads with slots to allow droppings to go through are now available.
