Okay so when I googled this (using the same terms) all I found was TCM usage. I never saw where it is very toxic to rabbits. This is why I am so scared to feed something from my yard.
Ha! I have a sweet potato that started sprouting in my house & it is so vigorous (& it was from the organic market) so i decided to plant it. i haven't done so yet but I did buy a container to get it started. but then my brown thumb kicked in...do just stick the whole potato in the soil? Or...
Yes, except I found squished poop stuck to the wire in her poop corner & assumed it was soft because it stuck. Looking back I saw many more than normal cecotropes than in the past week or so & there is still plenty of "normal" poop on the boards. So perhaps the stuck poop is not really soft...
I think this may be the problem. I saw many more uneaten cecotropes this past week. I think this is what is getting squished on the wire. Since I have cut back on the greens the last 2 days things are much better.
If I offer both Alfalfa & Coastal hay will they choose the one they need? or...
I just read on another forum about someone feeding potatoes to rabbits??? I thought potatoes were a big no....Any thoughts? Does anyone here feed potatoes? Just curious.
I NEVER said I was feeding anything wilted or dried out!
What I said was, "I am often cleaning out [of the cage] dry shriveled up zucchini or radish" Because the rabbits don't eat them. They prefer the greens.
My schedule [so no one thinks I am feeding my buns garbage]: EVERY NIGHT after...
Ok, I will eliminate the veggies. The 3wk old litter has no problems- just a little bit of softer stool for mom. As I mentioned it will be no problem in doing so.
How do you store the plantain, etc? Do you dehydrate them? Is this something you feed daily? or just as a medicinal when you have...
Nope, no pellets.<br /><br />__________ Sat Jun 19, 2010 9:16 am __________<br /><br />
As I mentioned- no pellets.
Can you define/quantify on a per rabbit basis maybe "a ton of greens"? :D
I do give 1 piece of veggie/fruit every day- we're talking a 1/4 inch slice of apple or zucchini...
In Eighteen's poop corner I've noticed some soft poops accumulating on the wire....should I be worried? She seems fine & the babies have the cleanest butts ever :D
How much/many greens do you give to your rabbits? It seems like they love the greens. I've given organic Spinach, organic...
Thanks Maggie,
Yes it is clipped to the cage with a a bolt snap from an old dog leash....ooooh another tip for the tips/tricks board! :lol:
Tonight when I got home there was hay & HAIR! everywhere..but no kits. I just went out to check 10 minutes ago & there were 5 little babes in the...
Hi All,
I mentioned in my other post about my new cage. I found it at the local feed store & they are trying to order some more for me. They are the same price (or off by a dollar or 2) as the cr*ppy (made in China) cages I got from TSC. On the other 3 TSC cages some wire welds have broken-...
