For a jersey wooly and her litter? I have a cage it is 1 foot 10 inches in width and 2 feet 8 inches in length it has a shelve too. Would than be big enough?How big should a rabbit cage be?
Um, what do you mean by litter? Haha. If you mean litter BOX than:
It's generally recommended that the cage be 2 by 4 feet minimum. This allows them to stretch out their full length when they lay down. She will need LOTS of out-of-cage exercise time, though. A larger cage would be better.
If you mean litter of babies then:
I would say that the same standard (a 2' x 4' cage) should be enough for a litter of babies; you will have to upgrade when they start getting bigger so they all have room.
As an additional note, you need to get your female rabbit spayed once the babies are weaned. Having a litter puts her at a higher risk of ovarian/uterine cancer, and spaying her will completely get rid of the possibility of cancer when she gets older. In addition, you do not want to contribute any more to the rabbit overpopulation problem.
