Rabbit and winter housing

Question
Hi,  is it ok to have my pet rabbits' hutches outside over winter?

Answer
hi vivienne-yes its ok but what I do is to put a polythene sheet over the cages at night anchored down with a brick or fastened so the wind cannot blow it off-then each morning I remove it ensure the rabbits have plenty of hay or straw so they can make a nest if they want.
