The best tutorial I have seen! I'm going to ask my son to make a couple. He hates my rabbits because they escape all the time and eat EVERYTHING we dont want them too! This way they are on safely on pasture land and not in the food or flower garden. It was a disaster when they got into the greenhouse 😳
Wow that came out so well! Nothing is more soothing that watching someone build something from scratch. Super thanks! I am amazed you got so much tools. Wish to see more of you building things. Hello to the animal gang, to Mossy. 😊
Loved the video. All your animals are so fortunate to live at Mossy Bottom. Love the rabbits and the sweet kittens. You are quite talented, Daniel. You are peaceful and calming. Take care.
Most enjoyable, had a slight moment of panic when I thought you were going to say that you eat them, you seem to be very good at carpentry. love the long hair btw
It really shows with all the thought and effort you have put into this project, that you truly care about your animals. Thank you for sharing with us all just how much you care. I loved the kittens, too cute.
I love how every animal has its use on your property 👍 Edit: Maybe you could do a Video where you show all the animals that currently live with you, would be fun to watch. :)
That bunny is spoiled! LOL Massage even! The best part was watching the dog watching the rabbits! Justin Rhodes makes something similar for his chickens and his kids move it around. I bet kids could move this around too. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.
Wonderful instructional video! Well paced, filmed, and narrated. You're a very good teacher, Daniel. Thank you for mentioning the tools too, as well as materials - I have no tools yet other than a drill, and zero skills, but it's nice to see what tools you used. I'm glad in a way that you don't have, say, 50 different expensive tools involved! That totally intimidates newbies. I also like that your sponsor is a service you use regularly and which can help many others of us, especially during job loss / change in the pandemic. And the free trials for 1000 people - what a nice way of giving back! Thanks so much!
Great video your design will help me alot since my 5 year old has asked for a rabbit since June so I must get cracking. Same design should do for hen's ( a bit bigger)
It is also getting colder and rainy too here on the atlantic coast of Portugal. Never saw a rabbit house, and now i even have a tutorial! Thanks so much for sharing this knowledge with us! :)
Your farm is looking great! It is SO lovely to see young adults out there also living their dream simple life :) Thanks so much for sharing great content with us. I do learn a lot from you and I hope my farm will look as nice as yours haha.
Thanks for the DIY. It’s so helpful! Do the rabbits get to run? You have made such excellent progress. You are a wonderful example of what we can do when we listen to who we really are. Thank you!
This is perfect! I have been looking into raising rabbits for meat so might need to make the build a bit bigger, but want to make them as nice as possible for the rabbits as I can and this is exactly what I am looking for. Thank you for the build!
This helped me understand how to build a hinged opening on the frame for my chicken wire garden surround...to keep the squirrels out of my veggies. And let ME in. I enjoyed watching in more or less real time the whole process..
I was rewatching some of your videos, to give myself some motivation and vision of a goal, and wondered if you'd ever make this video after you mentioned it like a year or two ago. Keep up the good work man.
Highly recommend investment in impact driver for your construction project (readily available in b&d 18v platform) they are very efficient for driving screws ,great job on project
I love everything about your channel!! Even the commentary about yourself.. You are very thorough and explain everything to the detail. Love learning from this channel. I am going to have rabbits instead of chickens for the time being.
Love your videos and this design. I'd really encourage you to consider putting some thick insulating material between the wood of the roof and the corrugated metal. Rabbits have super sensitive hearing, and the sound of heavy rain on a metal roof is actually quite stressful for them.
Having you work outside is very good for me since I don't have a workshop either! It's also nice when you give both metric and avoirdupois. The hints really help, too.
Rabbit manure is EXCELLENT for your vegetable garden as well! You put a handful of manure in the whole where you'll place your plant, and a handful over after filling the hole. It does wonders in your harvest!
Loved that video. I like you have rabbits, hens, guineapigs- can’t help wondering why you don’t make a few on slower days and then sell them, I wish I was closer to commission one. Better made than bought ones and you have thought of everything !
Hi Daniel. I've recently discovered your channel and thoroughly enjoy watching your videos. I'm fairly self supportive, to some extent, at least and enjoy the solitary lifestyle away from the madness of modern day society. I'd just like to comment on two things regarding your build of the rabbit tractor; Firstly, I would have gone for a slightly thicker piece of timber holding the wheels, to prevent splitting and long term wear. Secondly, your handling of your angle grinder scared me a bit. As I often work with steel and the tools necessary, and might I ad, that I was taught by my late father who was a millwright and a boiler maker, I learnt to handle an angle grinder to the dide(blade running past one's body) for safety. I've, twice, seen people having horrendous accidents with these machines, handling them in a similar way to what you did here. Other than that, awesome work sir. Ps. My family originally came from Ireland and I've always had a special affinity for the country of my Ancestors. If possible, I'd like to visit some day. Sincerely Réno Potgieter South Africa
Im going to make this, just slightly longer of a run so they can run a bit. Starting my meat rabbit journey, although they’re food I still want them to have a great life.
Great video! I hope to one day see Ireland! I tried all the links to see more details on materials and dementions but could not find them. I have 5 of these i need to make asap!
This is really nice. Hope to make one when I have my own house farm soonest next year here in the Philippines. I'd like to have rabbits and chicken too. Thank you for inspiring, Mossy Bottom.
You make it look so easy 😊 I'd love to have some chicken, but in a maisonette in the middle of town that's not going to happen, but watching your vlogs is great👍
Hi Daniel great to see u posted up again , need more like u at this weird time 🙂 . Great tutorial ur tutor would be proud of ur construction 🙂 how many🐇s are u keeping there ,I counted 10 inc babies . Love the summer house too I could quite happily live in one like that with my dog . Keep safe and stay happy ,kiss for Moss ,look fwd to see what else u have to show us 🙂.
Fantastic, thank you! My friends recommended your channel. Just one observation- should you not wear ear protection when using the chop saw? I had to turn the volume down because I hate its noise, I always protect my ears when using power tools...
Lovely video! You look so much healthier these days. (Living here on the North Irish Coast has improved even my old body!) Do you have mains now? (And PLEASE unwind all of the extension lead. Induced current in a wound cable can cause fires! (I was an electrician in my working days. I saw a few 😢)
Great video. I'm curious, with your experience building the cabin and misc diy around your small holding, what have you found are the essential tools to have? Might be a good subject for a video 👍
That's a neat little rabbit coop. Now I only need a large garden. And rabbits 😉 Love the little fluffies...I had 2 pet rabbits for 10+ years as a kid and always enjoyed taking care of them. Wish, moving to a place where land is cheap, was an option for me...

The perfect wind down evening for me....a hot cuppa, a packet of biscuits and Mossy Bottom video...and breath!!
good to hear you got a sponsor!
Nice to see you monitising the channel.
One rabbit alone is a phenomenal grass cutter! That's fabulous that they are helping so much. xx
How you get anything done with all those animals to pet is beyond me. Great video thanks for sharing.
lol
The best tutorial I have seen!
I'm going to ask my son to make a couple. He hates my rabbits because they escape all the time and eat EVERYTHING we dont want them too! This way they are on safely on pasture land and not in the food or flower garden. It was a disaster when they got into the greenhouse 😳
Thank you so much! :)
i love this project, its beautiful to see that animals can enjoy daylight ,the sun ,the grass ...and stil be so useful in the garden :)
I love your little cottage. It just looks cozy. You seem to get by building what you need with very little. I think your doing fantastic!
Yes would to know more about the cottage and see inside .
Super relaxing always. You remembered to fill the bird feeder too.
Wow that came out so well! Nothing is more soothing that watching someone build something from scratch. Super thanks! I am amazed you got so much tools. Wish to see more of you building things. Hello to the animal gang, to Mossy. 😊
I enjoyed every minute of it.

He is a lucky man. Sensitive but not overly sensitive. I couldn't keep animals in such small places.
Loved the video. All your animals are so fortunate to live at Mossy Bottom. Love the rabbits and the sweet kittens. You are quite talented, Daniel. You are peaceful and calming. Take care.
Daniel you are so peaceful and contented I can feel the relaxing energy coming my way....
Most enjoyable, had a slight moment of panic when I thought you were going to say that you eat them, you seem to be very good at carpentry. love the long hair btw
It would make much more sense if he did.........!
@@andymccabe6712 not to the rabbits it wouldn’t
@@andymccabe6712 defending your own actions and dogging down anyone who disagrees. live and let live mate
Been staying in grandpa's old cabin a lot lately. This is so inspiring! Love your videos :)
I really happy about your sponsorship for this video. Long life to your project, you are an inspiration for a lot of people. Cheers from Portugal!

Your first sponsored video, well done. I love your rabbits.

You are so good at building stuff. You really need to build yourself a nice shop for all your woodworking projects
Love Love Love the hair
That was brilliant!
I learnt so much - everything like this should be taught in schools.
Best wishes

Such a resourceful man should be the president of Ireland.
I suspect they might take issue with a British ruler... :-)

thank you for sharing. my husband just made this hutch for our new bunnies. We did do a couple things different but followed your plan.
Your farm is looking great! It is SO lovely to see young adults out there also living their dream simple life :) Thanks so much for sharing great content with us. I do learn a lot from you and I hope my farm will look as nice as yours haha.
Always a treat to see the notification you've uploaded a new video, and then to see its 40 minutes long! Brilliant stuff mate
do you find the rabbits have enough room?
Thoses rabbits need a bigger run where they can excise.
Thanks for the DIY. It’s so helpful! Do the rabbits get to run? You have made such excellent progress. You are a wonderful example of what we can do when we listen to who we really are. Thank you!
Yes, they do, in another video he showed the piece of pasture he has sectioned out for them, he switches them between the tractor and the den.
This is perfect! I have been looking into raising rabbits for meat so might need to make the build a bit bigger, but want to make them as nice as possible for the rabbits as I can and this is exactly what I am looking for. Thank you for the build!
You’re the 1st baggins of Bag End. Here’s to you creating your own shire!

Nature and animals what more could you need?
Internet, apparently!
speed carpentry - something I never thought I'd find funny (like Benny Hill) but also fascinating to watch
Having you work outside is very good for me since I don't have a workshop either! It's also nice when you give both metric and avoirdupois. The hints really help, too.
The guys at Way Out West vlog made a really lovely hen house tractor
Well made and a very good idea. Thank you and stay healthy and enjoy life.
Rabbit manure is EXCELLENT for your vegetable garden as well! You put a handful of manure in the whole where you'll place your plant, and a handful over after filling the hole. It does wonders in your harvest!
did something similar years ago to keep my mothers lawn cut, worked a treat
Oh, thought you were going to say to keep your mother in law in 😉
Do you have plans available?
Great craftsmanship at the Bunny Hotel! Thanks as always for sharing.
Loved that video. I like you have rabbits, hens, guineapigs- can’t help wondering why you don’t make a few on slower days and then sell them, I wish I was closer to commission one. Better made than bought ones and you have thought of everything !
Does anyone else feel disappointed if we don't get a glimpse of the adorable dog.
I too have rabbits and grass that needs cutting. Love the design. I will add that to my homestead to do list.
My birthday is nov. 18 I am alone and the winter is my next conquest. Keep making videos. Peace be to you
This is a nice rabbit tractor for sure!!! very sturdy! Well thought!
That is absolutely the Best Rabbit Tractor I've seen. Nice job.
You’ve really got a nice looking farm going!! And ❤️ your hair!!
I recommend lath screws for attaching wire mesh. You can always remove them easily if you need to replace the wire.
Wow! Brilliant job. Luxury accommodations for your rabbits!
Your rabbits are just beautiful. You’re so good to them. Love your creation. What a genius idea!

Beautiful life, gorgeous land..
Much love and happiness to you
and your farm life.....
You are such an inspiration.... lovely.... I learn so many things from you brother... all love and hugs from India.
Im going to make this, just slightly longer of a run so they can run a bit. Starting my meat rabbit journey, although they’re food I still want them to have a great life.
This video couldnt come in a better moment! Thank you! 🥰
Great video! I hope to one day see Ireland!

You have some awesome designs
This is really nice. Hope to make one when I have my own house farm soonest next year here in the Philippines. I'd like to have rabbits and chicken too. Thank you for inspiring, Mossy Bottom.
Great to see you're getting sponsorship. Really enjoy your videos.
So glad you got a sponsor! Very interesting video, love all you do, your animals and their names! Thanks 🙏
Hair: Still long, more beautiful than ever.
Paid promotion: A good fit, interesting, and unobtrusive.
Bunnies: Always wonderful.
Great video!
What a wonderful video and very tutorial and inspirational to others living off grid. You have a wonderful place and I really enjoy your videos!
Great video , thanks.
Your mitre saw is a brilliant tool.
Amazing. Loved the build! Moss has his eye on the rabbits.
Love all your videos. Curious if the bottom mesh pushes down the grass too much - not giving the rabbits access to all the grass?
Is the bottom not fenced? How do you prevent dig outs?
You make it look so easy 😊 I'd love to have some chicken, but in a maisonette in the middle of town that's not going to happen, but watching your vlogs is great👍
If you have a garage or a small back patio/balcony you could possibly go with quail, they take very little room…
Wow, very precise work! Bravo!
Just what I need for my daughters bunny
Looks like a great way to lower my feed bills. Great video.
excellent, well explained construction, love it!
Fantastic Job , thank you for sharing 👍
omg--that rabbit family is well, adorable. And the rabbit tractor is a great idea.
Do you have written plans for this tractor? I love the idea but want to build a slightly bigger one as a grow our hutch.
You are AMAZING!!! You are the only thing/person keeping me grounded!
You are amazing and I love your attitude towards the animals! You are a fantastic builder very precise! This is a great idea !
Thank you Daniel I'm always waiting for a new video..
Very cool. Love the accent. Love the build.
Thanks for sharing this. I adore your videos. 💓
Very interesting object you created there Mossy Bottom
Colocas la misma red metálica en el suelo?...
No se pueden dañar los conejos al comer el césped?
Hi Daniel great to see u posted up again , need more like u at this weird time 🙂 .

Irish where hard working
And very talented
You are so amazing
Time lapses are always so much fun to watch ! Good job !! : ))
How did you get so handy with those tools? I'd have no idea where to start!
I'd love to learn though.
Hi Daniel, What is the harness for that Moss has been wearing in your last couple of videos?
It's his bike-mushing harness. You can see it in action in my bog mushing video. :)
Lovely video! You look so much healthier these days. (Living here on the North Irish Coast has improved even my old body!)
Do you have mains now?
(And PLEASE unwind all of the extension lead. Induced current in a wound cable can cause fires!
