bedding

My Lion head rabbits are out side all the time. How cold of weather can they be in? The hutch include an inside part and an out side part. I have just had a new hutch made only it does not have an inside part so I am going to make a insulate box for it. (I always use hay bedding in the winter to keep the very warm)
