Right now I just want some pet rabbits, but eventually might transition into meat rabbits.
Curious what the pros/cons are of these two setups?

I am pondering meat rabbits too. Interested to hear from people who know.
It’s not nice to keep rabbits enslaved..
I saw a video of a conveyor belt system to remove their waste in the raised setup. It was for chickens though. Basically a long belt system they attached a drill to to roll all of the waste into a tub. That was pretty cool.
The ground level option needs wheels so you can move it around.
Edit: Zooming in I now see wheels in the back
Idk about rabbits, but we made that exact tractor for our meat birds and it’s great. It did get lifted up in the wind through and thrown about 100 yards, thankfully nothing was inside and I think we had a microburst but I’m still paranoid it’s going to take flight again lol, but it held up well!
I like bigger set ups for my animals if I’m being honest. I hate factory farms and how they treat their animals so I make it my goal not to mimic the same things those animals experience, like small cages.
I would suggest the bigger set up(ready for my down votes lol)
How will you prevent them from burrowing out?
First ones don’t look super safe from predators. Second ones look way too cramped to be kind imo.
