Now is the time to sell your "bunny berries"! : Other Ways to Profit from Rabbits - Page 2

Wow! I am really impressed! I want to try and get some buckets to put under the rabbits in there potty corners but haven't gotten around to it. I also need to get the chickens out (my son keeps letting them out) because they make such a mess and kick the rabbit poo everywhere.

I wish I could do that but it's impossible with the colony. Dirty straw and poop gets swept out and some goes in the compost bins and some goes in with the chickens. I have five compost bins made out of skids that everything eventually goes into, rabbit and chicken poop, dirty straw, butchering offal, grass clippings and kitchen leavin's. When the last bin has finished its digesting I have the most beautiful black gold to spread out on my gardens. I should be making some money at it!

My berries end up a mix of berries, wasted hay and pine pellet dust... so I doubt folks would be willing to pay much, if anything for it. I've been putting it all on our own garden though.

Now that's cool.
At this point, I am throwing mine out with the trash. My gardens are full, and besides it smells when I do use it, and the neighbors are not happy. I literally cannot give this crap away for free.

Having said that, I did it anyway.

Someone is supposed to come and pick up 10 bags tonight, I need to go out and start shoveling.

Yay!

Though I did not enjoy bagging and carrying 16 bags today. I didn't advertise them for much, but it's a start. I have to be mindful now to empty all pans into bags to give myself a head start just in case.

Lol!!! I'm glad you gave it a try, after all!

I am going to have to discontinue my "introductory offer" shortly. I only have about 25 bags currently, and people waiting for my next delivery to Tehachapi.

Once people start buying it (and consequently want more) you can hopefully up your price too. But anything is better than throwing it away.

That's for sure. I think that took my entire bag supply.
You know how I say no one here wants it? Well they weren't from here, they came an hour away.

I am learning, when you say do something, to do it, no matter what didn't work for me in the past!

*Snort!* Reminds me of a comment from a friend of mine. Her husband is an Aries (as am I) and she says "You can't argue with an Aries- they are always right. I have given up trying."

So... repeat after me:

"I will not argue with MamaSheepdog. MSD knows all. When MamaSheepdog gives a directive, I will comply immediately. I will also tithe 10% of my bunny-berry profits to Victory Garden Rabbits."

MamaSheepdog you crack me up!

Though we don't have many rabbits I'm going to give this a try. I went online locally and saw that sure enough there were people in my area looking for it to buy!! Here I've been missing out on that market.

Now all you Indiana Rabbit Talk people don't beat me to the market.
I've already created a label and everything. ha.


Thanks for the inspiration!

Well, that's a relief. I'm glad I'm not the only one laughing at my jokes. People might think I was nuts or something.

Looking for it?!? Where? On Craigslist or???

Wo-o-w!!! Fancy schmancy! You must post a pic to inspire us all!

Yes, people looking for it via craigslist!

ha. Well here is one I had fun making to put on a plastic 1 gallon icecream container (with lid) for a friend who gardens. The icecream container said "Purple Cow". My oldest daughter said the container should say "Brown Bunny" when she saw it full of brown bunny poop. I thought that was funny so I decided to have some fun and make a label. I knew it would amuse my friend too - especially the warning.

Thanks for the inspiration!

Mama, may I share your success and information in another forum?
