bird 10,013 Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 yes just dont bother getting them no ferrets equals no smell yep, i might be wrong but they are supposed to smell , as its the smell from them that makes the rabbits bolt, well before they make contact with each other . its nature's way of balancing things out , so i would keep them clean ,but not over bath them.!!

The one 8,533 Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 Its only the hobs that smell during the summer when there nuts are dropped ,they dont smell if they are cleaned out and you can get red cedar shaving etc that are scented and would mask any smell 1 Quote Link to post
