Has anyone used mangel beets successfully? Do you chop and dry the beets or feed them fresh?
I am thinking I would like to grow a large bed or two of beets for the rabbits this year since our other root crops do beautifully. My goal is to feed naturally using mangel beets, oats, alfalfa, and BOSS. Shredded beet (pulp?) is super expensive around here, but oats and alfalfa are realitively cheap. Wheat is also very expensive and I can't find barley at all. Thoughts?
