I have....millions of them. I know that wild rabbits eat the young trees, and I'm wondering if they would be okay for the domestic rabbits? Haven't really found info on it in my brief search...just hundreds of references to wild rabbits.
American Elm?

Yes, American Elm is fine for rabbits... also other members of the Ulmus family like Slippery Elm or Rock Elm. My rabbits don't love it (and since we only have one youngish tree, they don't get it very often) but they do eat it.

I believe that the Elms serve some sort of medicinal purpose.
Though what it is seems to have escaped me at the moment.
The Elms make GREAT Firewood!
Just thought I'd mention it in passing.

:bananadance2: here's me doing the Happy Dance! There are these crappy trash trees growing EVERYWHERE here. Now I can just chop off branches and let the buns have a feast (if they decide to eat them)
I'll keep giving the grasses, etc., too..and the apple branches..but at least these will ive me something to DO with the trees instead of just chopping them down and running them through the chipper
