It seems easy to gather all that the rabbits need in the summer as we have lush green fields here full of a wide variety of plants but the obvious question is about what to do in the winter? I would like to go off pellets but I'm trying just to supplement them with greens at the moment. I guess it would also depend on the number of rabbits one has, it would be easier to natural feed only a couple of rabbits. My numbers fluctuate from about half a dozen up to about 20 depending on age and butchering schedule. The lady that I have been buying my pellets from since I got rabbits in 2008 is having supplier problems and my not be able to supply me anymore so I'm giving some thought to where I go from here. I hate changing feed because I have had zero digestive problems with my rabbits on this feed. The local feed mill has a rabbit feed that looks ok so I'll likely go there.
Can things be gathered and frozen for the winter? I read another thread that suggested drying things and warning about mould. Reducing the food costs would be a good thing. I would like to natural feed my chickens too but I guess that's a different dietary requirement.
