The 6 hutches housing 6 rabbits in the back breeder area had excessive debris accumulating on the wire mesh walls and in the areas between the wire floors and walls. These enclosures did not appear to have been clean in a long while. Additionally, the 2 rabbits housed in the chain link dog kennel directly on the ground had an excessive accumulation of excreta mixed with the gravel floor. Bacteria and fungus may grow in the excessive debris and grime and cause the animals to become ill. The enclosures must be cleaned to minimize disease hazards which includes sanitization at least every 30 days in the manner provided in paragraph (b)(3) of this section. Correct by 24 January 2015.
