ALUMINIUM FRAMEWORK
Aluminium, unlike steel or timber, will not rust, rot or deteriorate in the weather. You can be rest assured that your hutch will be looking just as great in many years’ time. Royal Rooster’s specially designed aluminium is made with channels in which the mesh or iron slots directly so that there are no ugly fixings on either side of the panels to keep the materials in place.
Black Frame Optional Upgrade: standard hutches are made with silver anodized aluminium framework, however black anodized framework is also available as an optional upgrade.
SMALL-SIZED GALVANIZED MESH
The sides of the Bunny Castles are made with small sized galvanised steel mesh, 2.5mm thick with 25mm squares. This strong mesh is difficult to accidentally damage and is impossible for foxes to chew through!
Mini Mesh Optional Upgrade: If rodents or snakes are an issue, you can alternatively have your hutch made with 12.5mm x 12.5mm mesh that is 1.24mm thick.
MINI FLUTED CORRUGATED IRON
The side walls, back door and full roof of the Bunny Castle is made using very modern Zincalume (silver) mini corrugated iron. This is Bluescope steel which is made in Australia.
Colorbond Optional Upgrade: The Bunny Castle is also available in Colorbond for those wishing their hutch to match other colours in their backyard. Colours currently available are Pale Eucalypt, Deep Ocean, Monument and Woodland Grey. Custom Colorbond colours are also available if required.
SUMMER VENTILATION
Unlike imported hutches, Royal Rooster hutches are designed and made in Australia, taking into consideration our very hot summers. The whole front of the housing section on the Bunny Castle is open to allow maximum ventilation on hot days.
Weather Shield Optional Upgrade: There is also available an optional ‘weather shield’ that can also be purchased to provide extra protection in wet or windy weather. This shield further encloses the housing section with still a gap for the rabbits to hop up the ladder.
OPEN FLOOR DESIGN
The hutches do not have a floor as standard but anti-dig mesh floors can be purchased if required.
Anti-Dig Mesh Floor Optional Upgrade: If you’re concerned about your bunnies burrowing out of their enclosure or concerned about foxes or dogs digging their way in, you can order a mesh floor to go with your rabbit hutch. These are sections of mesh panel that are wired to the base of the enclosure. You can choose from large mesh that is 50mm x 50cm x 3mm in size or mini mesh that is 12.5mm x 12.5mm x 1.24mm.
WHEELS FOR MOBILITY
As these hutches are made with aluminium rather than steel frames, they are easy to move with one person on each end of the hutch. If you need to be able to move the enclosure by yourself, then the wheel upgrade may be required.
Wheel Kit Optional Upgrade: The optional wheel upgrade makes moving your hutch even easier. Just turn the lever arms into the raised position on either side of your hutch, push or pull your hutch to a new area and then lower again.
LITTER TRAY
The upstairs section of the Bunny Castle has a removable litter tray. This is made with an aluminium frame and infilled with aluminium composite panel. Simply open the back door, lift out the litter tray for easy cleaning.
ACCESS DOORS
The Bunny Castle has two doors. One on the front of the hutch allowing easy entry into the hutch. Also a door at the rear for access to the litter tray for cleaning.
Manual Rabbit Door Optional Upgrade: If you would like a small hatch for your rabbits to come and go without leaving the main door open, the manual rabbit door may be what you need.
The manual pet door comes with a clear slide up door with a hook so can be latched to the mesh to stay open. This can be fitted to any mesh area on your hutch.
