Enrichment for rabbits?

[peanutdabunny]

Can you give Me your best enchiment ideas for rabbits? I just spent $80 on toys and treats, are those enriching? I am also looking for enriching toys I can reuse for example stacking cups. Also any good baby toys for rabbits? I love to spoil my child, I’ve gotten him castles and a Christmas snuffle mat.I want to put something that resembles grass in-front of castle and maybe I can stick some herbs in it, any suggestion? Also a tunnel but I want to get him some more as I have a lot of space in my room for him. I already have a dig box but I plan to upgrade it to a ball pit for him soon. He loves to dig which is a beast of its own, he gets bored very easily, I plan to get him a buddy soon, (after his neuter) which I know will be enriching for him. Send me some links to toys, treats, hide houses, and even things that aren’t meant for rabbits like baby toys. I know you all have the best rabbit ideas on here so I call on you to help a bun mom out! Can’t wait to here your ideas! (I will also being looking through the 2021 indoor cage tour)

Literally bought an espresso machine and gave the cardboard padding to Shen. He went to town on it. Same with toilet paper and paper towel rolls. Brown paper bags, cardboard boxes... he's like a cat, but vegan.

My bunnies aren't fussy. For my mini lops it's some newspaper, cardboard or if they get into the bathroom a full toilet paper roll. And for my Flemish Giant she chews on and rips the lavender plants poking through her run. Another thing I have found is that no matter how many toys I give her she just decides to chew the bark and roots off all the trees in her run (thankfully non-toxic ones). Also digging around keeps her occupied. Sometimes you can buy the fanciest things for your bun but they will decide that they prefer cardboard rolls.

I've bought lots of toys for the boys, but they seem to have the most fun with the simple things. Toilet paper tubes stuffed with hay, cardboard boxes stuffed with hay. They love digging at and pushing a towel around, also!

They're like kids; buy them expensive toys, and they play with the box!

Lawrence does enjoy playing his "game", but we use it as a treat activity. Lucas has no time for such games. He just loves to run!

Thanks I added it to the cart, Peanut really seems to like toys, and different hide houses, do you recommend any cute hide houses? He seems to not like cardboard box lol

One thing I love about rabbits is that they all have distinct personalities! So it may be a matter of trial and error to find out what he likes!

I've bought Maze Havens from BinkyBunny.com, and they have some other cute options!
