How much hay do i use for my rabbit?

Hi i have just bought a dwarf lug rabbit i'm not sure on how much hay to put in his bed i have speaded some wood shavings outside his bed any info will be greatHow much hay do i use for my rabbit?
Rabbits need to EAT an unlimited amount of hay... are you putting this poor thing outside?How much hay do i use for my rabbit?
You should be using straw for his bedding and if you are trying to keep it warm you need to put it on all the sides of the walls and about an inch or two for the floor. they are used to small warm spaces just don't put any on the top he will borrow down in it when you get done any ways and make it comfy the way he wants it but you need to insulate the walls and the floor definatly.
do not use wood shavings coz i have heard that its bad for your rabbit. Use a paper-based one. For his bed, may be 3 times his size or so? He would eat it anyway. Giving your bunny unlimited hay is great.
try with some and see how it works out. I guess there should be enough for him to be a bit wrapped up.
I would put like 1 to 2 big handfuls are if the place is big.
