Back Story …
I built two 18′ (diameter) geodesic domes last year to raise livestock in. I started a rabbit colony in Dome 1, but it became clear the rabbits were trying to dig down to China, so I ripped out the floor of Dome 2, excavated down about 4 feet, wire meshed the bottom, added a raised platform and wood paths, then backfilled the dirt back into the dome. When completed, I migrated the whole rabbit colony from Dome 1 to Dome 2.
In less than a year, the rabbit colony has grown from 4 (3 does, 1 buck) to somewhere around 40. I processed out all but one buck, but there’s still at least 30 in there, with two new litters added in the past few weeks.
So, I decided the time had come to refurbish Dome 1 to replicate the success of Dome 2.
Took me about 3 and half days to complete, pretty much working all day.
Here are a few videos and photos that document refurb process.
