Six-Row Caged Rabbit House Plans

These plans are for a rabbitry facility that provides six rows of cages in a single level. An

equivalent of 108 - 30"x30" or 90 - 36"x30" cages for does and young plus 12 - 24"x30" cages for

bucks can be installed. A combination of cage sizes are shown but the number and size of cages

can be altered by the owner.

Stacking of cages vertically is an excellent way to make efficient use of building space. Two or

three levels can be installed by attaching them to free-standing supports or hanging cables. If the

cages are to be suspended from the ceiling, extra strength must be designed in the truss assembly

to accommodate the extra weight of cages, rabbits and feed. The length of this house can be

extended to provide additional housing capacity.

Copies of this plan can also be obtained by contacting your Mississippi County Extension Office

and requesting House Plan #6360, 2 Multi-Row Caged Rabbit Shed.
