A Rabbit Cage is a storage building and object that allows you to store and breed up to seven rabbits in one cage, it was added in update v0.01 of The Forest. It is found in the Food and Water section of the survival guide.

Gameplay

To begin breeding rabbits the player first has to hunt them down using an animal trap. If a rabbit was caught it can be taken out of the trap and carried to a rabbit cage where it can be "stored" (default key C).

When there are two or more rabbits in the same cage, rabbits have a 10% chance of breeding every time the player sleeps, up to seven rabbits can fit in a cage, they will stop breeding after that unless separated. To increase the chances of a breeding, players should separate rabbits, two per cage. If the player is desperate, they can save before sleeping and reload if rabbits don’t breed. The player can take them out and either put them in another cage or harvest them for rabbit meat and rabbit fur (default Left Mouse Button). Remember that 10% is a very low chance. It can feel like rabbits won’t breed, but they will eventually. The more you have, the higher your chances of breeding are.
