The bee-hives would have to be heated or highly insulated.

Heaping soil up about them might work. It'd keep the high temps down during the day and keep the lows up during the night.

Boy! Being a farmer in this story would be a lot of work!

You can make a nice sized area....lay some type of chicken wire (the heavier one) under the surface of the ground.....just kinda like what you do for dogs, along fence lines, so they can't dig out. The grass will grow like normal and if the enclosures are enclosed with and area or two for shelters, like dog houses(heated of course), they will be fine. You can even put a small pond in there.[/quote]

No because they are "enclosures" not open pens. I had already thought of that when I suggested the enclosures and not open pens.[/quote]

************************************

Inclosure \In*clo"sure\ (?; 135), n. [See Inclose, Enclosure.]

[Written also enclosure.]

1. The act of inclosing; the state of being inclosed, shut up, or encompassed; the separation of land from common ground by a fence.

2. That which is inclosed or placed within something; a thing contained; a space inclosed or fenced up.

Within the inclosure there was a great store of houses. --Hakluyt.

3. That which incloses; a barrier or fence.

Therefore 'enclosure does not necessarily mean roofed over !!!

A enclosure could very well work; provided it's not too big and you can move the whole thing around, from one part of the pasture to another.

I wonder in you could allow the bunnies some 'open-air' hopping about but provide a guard? It's be a good chore for responsible kids. A young lad or lass with a good swatting stick(For predators, not the bunnies) and maybe a faithful doggie along to keep a extra eye out.

How to keep The dog from going after the bunnies himself is another matter!

Enclosures can very much be portable, The pen I keep Junior in, when he is outside, is an "enclosure". It is enclosed on all sides. His is about 10 X 10 which is plenty of room for him to move around, flap his wings and still have room for a large kiddie pool. It is made out of chain-link fencing and posts and can be disassembled and reassembled with great ease. It is also very long lasting and strong which keeps them safe from "all" predators.

They can also be made to whatever size you may need.

Mobile cages

We originally built this as a chicken tractor for the 2 bantam hens, but now I use it as a mobile rabbit run. I wouldn't use this for long term housing, because the rabbits would dig out too easily. (Ignore the look of the grass, it was early spring)

Which are better for weed control, bunnies or goats?

I'm 'feeling out' the pest-control potential of each critter.
