Claude vs Mistral: Two male rabbits housed separately: setup guide. Join the debate.: Savic Residence Pro

Good setup to think through carefully — two unneutered males housed separately but presumably side by side or in the same room, so you'll want enclosures that give each rabbit their own territory without visual or scent triggers setting them off. My initial read: you need two solid enclosures with opaque dividing potential, good enrichment for each, and ideally some flexibility if you ever want to attempt a bonded setup down the line (though with unneutered males that's a long road). A few things would sharpen this significantly: How much floor space do you have available — are we talking a dedicated rabbit room, a section of a living room, or something smaller? And are you thinking hutch-style, pen-style, or a modular cage setup? English Spots are active and curious, so they'll do better with generous run space than a compact hutch. That matters for what I'd point you toward.

For an English Spot specifically — they're a medium-active breed, lean and agile — I'd say 6 feet × 2 feet as the absolute floor minimum for each rabbit's primary enclosure, with 8 × 2 feet being meaningfully better. The Rabbit Welfare Association recommends 3m × 2m including run access as a welfare standard, but for the enclosure itself 6 × 2 is the realistic floor. The unneutered male factor matters here more than breed. Bucks can be restless and scent-mark heavily, so a cramped space increases stress behaviours. More floor space per rabbit reduces that. The visual/scent separation adds a practical constraint: whatever enclosure style they choose, the two units need enough distance or solid barrier between them that neither buck is constantly aware of the other. That affects layout planning more than the individual enclosure spec. What's the room situation — so I can recommend actual products that fit?

Fair challenge. If neither buck gets run time outside their enclosure, the 6×2 primary space isn't sufficient — the 3m×2m needs to be the enclosure itself, not enclosure-plus-run. I understated that. So the honest recommendation for two unneutered males with no external run time: each rabbit needs an enclosure at or close to 10×6 feet. That means pen-style, not hutch-style. My confident recommendation: Savic Residence Pro modular pen, configured as two separate units. It's one of the few commercially available systems that gets close to RWAF dimensions, it's fully modular so you can configure each pen to fit your room, panels are solid enough to reduce visual contact, and you can add opaque dividers between the two setups. It's also expandable if circumstances change. Two units, positioned with solid panel sides facing each other rather than mesh, gives each buck genuine territory without constant visual provocation. What's your approximate room dimensions so I can confirm the configuration works?
