Hi I keep Rabbits out doors. I insulate the outside of the hutch with bubble wrap and hang a roller blind over the top, you can pull this down at night or in wet conditions. Line your hutch with a deep layer of wood chippings. Use plenty of hay and shredded paper,also give a little extra feed hope your bunny stays snug.

You probably should go with a mixture of shredded newspaper and straw. That's what I used for my rabbits.

Ideally, you bring your bunny inside. If that is not possible, then you want to be sure his hutch is shielded from the wind. Provide a box inside the hutch the bunny can hunker down in to stay warm, filled with recycled paper bedding. Add a heat lamp to keep him warm without being in a position that he can burn himself on it. You'll need to check his water bottle a couple of times a day to make sure it hasn't frozen.

But please, I beg you, bring the bunny indoors. I've seen too many bunnies lose ears to frostbite.

Get Hay as well as sawdust because rabbits love to eat hay but they can't eat straw.

The most important thing is to make sure your rabbit is protected on 3 out of the 4 sides from the wind. This will help keep your rabbit from getting pneumonia.

Straw, wood chips, or ground up corn cobs make good bedding. Rabbits don't really need bedding in the winter. They do need protection from the wind however. Bedding is only needed if you have a rabbit that has a solid floor. It helps keep the rabbit clean. Rabbits can take the cold very well, but not a draft very well. We keep our rabbits in wire cages with wire floors all winter with no bedding. However our Checkered Giants that were larger and thus required solid woodend floors we used straw, sometimes ground up corn cobs, or wood chips to line the cages to keep them from getting dirty.

Rabbits will eat straw. Don't get hay because you don't want them eating too much hay, especially if it is a broad leafed hay like clover or alfalfa. Also, hay will have more bugs and insects in it giving you a greater chance of getting fur mites on your rabbits.
