from the sun and from severe rains, as the roof does not overhang in this style of hutch sufficiently to afford the necessary protection.
The doors are merely frames covered with one inch wire mesh and on hinges. The upper hutches have solid floors sloping three inches to the back to provide drainage and the floor of the two lower hutches is of slats. This affords the ideal arrangement for such a style hutch. It is probably not as ornamental as the hutch shown in Plan No. 2 and it does not occupy as much space, but where one desires a hutch of this type and size, there is no plan that can be used to better advantage.
An improvement might be made by cutting down the height, as I have found that hutches 18 inches high are just as practical as those two feet high. This would save one foot in the height of the hutch over all.
There are many other styles of hutches and rabbitries that may be built, but there is no series of general plans that will suit the fancier better.
