FruitandNutCake Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 What weeds do you feed your rabbits (and/or chickens!) ? My garden is organic, and I dig up all my weeds. Instead of pulling them as seedlings, I let them grow a little bigger but before they go to flower/seed so that I can feed them to the rabbits. Apart from the obvious dandelion, I also give them groundsel, chickweed, shepherds purse, hairy bittercress, dock and the non-spiny sowthistle. I haven't given them nettle and they don't touch the spiny sowthistle, but I have other weeds that I'm not sure whether they can eat. I think I have fat hen (Good King Henry?) in the garden but not sure how to tell apart good King Henry and Bad King Henry!!! I also have lots of yellow flowered plants that look like rape flowers, but the leaves look different. Will have to take some photos!

SnowWhite Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 You can also feed your bunnys plantain and bramble leaves - they love them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
