A hay rack is an integral part of a rabbit hutch, just like a drinking bowl or a feeder, but sometimes rabbit owners neglect this useful detail. As you can easily guess from the title of the video, a hay rack is designed to store hay, which rabbits eat as needed. Since hay is an important part of a rabbit's diet, no rabbit breeder can do without a hay rack. You can get a hay rack in two ways - by buying a ready-made structure in a store, or by making it yourself from scrap parts. Since the process of creating a hay rack is quite easy and intuitive, even a beginner can handle it. We will talk about how to create a hay rack for rabbits with your own hands in this video Types of hay racks. Hay racks are divided into only two types according to the method of their attachment: - external; - internal; - double-sided. We will now reveal each of these types. External hay racks. Such hay racks are the most common due to their comfortable use. They are attached to the outer door of the cage, which is usually covered with a large mesh. The outer hay rack itself assumes the presence of a box, a bottom and three metal or wooden side walls. The part of the hay rack that is attached to the door of the cage is either covered with a large mesh, or is not touched at all, so that the rabbits do not have additional obstacles on the way to the hay. External hay racks for a battery of cages. Internal hay racks. This type of hay rack is located inside the cage. It is a little more difficult to care for it, because the farmer has to climb into the cage itself to get to the structure. Replenishing the hay is also complicated by the fact that the internal hay rack is attached to a blank wall. In its structure, such a hay rack is no different from the external one, only its location changes. The internal hay rack allows the rabbit to come close to the structure. Double-sided hay racks. Such hay racks, as a rule, have the shape of the letter V and are considered one of the most profitable options. In general, double-sided hay racks are a type of internal ones, with one difference - such feeders are most often installed in double cages so that individuals from two adjacent cages have simultaneous access to food. The double-sided type of feeder is very convenient in cases where rabbits are kept in battery cages. A double-sided hay rack serves two cages with rabbits at once Subscribe to the channel - it's not difficult for you, we are pleased.
