recipe for bunny bread???

[bunnygardener]

I remember reading some time ago that there was a recipe for making a bunny "bread" out of all the pellet crumbs in the bottom of the pellet bag. :idea: Does anyone have it or know the link? I would like to use all the food I paid for. It's a shame to have to throw the crumbs away. Thanks

I made bunny treats last night. I put some stale raisin bran, some old cranberries, the tail ending of various grains, mixed enough water in to make it doughy, then I put small pieces on a foil lined cookie sheet and baked it at 350 for about 1/2 an hour(until hard).

I see the potential for using not just the "fines" from pellets but odds and ends to make "cookies" for the rabbits. ummm...

Oh, there have been some discussions of rabbit treats which could give ideas...lets see if I can find them...<br /><br />__________ Fri Dec 06, 2013 9:02 am __________<br /><br />rabbit cookie making discussions:

I make bunny cookies all the time.

1 cup pellets/fines etc. Grind in the food processor
1 cup Old Fashion Oat Meal (DO NOT use instant)
1 banana
1 carrot
Process the batch together and ad just enough water to make it all come together into a really dry mix. Put down a piece of saran wrap and the mix on it. Cover with another layer, smash down with your hands and roll it out about 1/2" thick. Cut into squares any size you want and place on a cookie sheet. Bake for ~1/2 hour at 350.
:gettowork:

You really aren't "baking" them but drying them so they stay together once they cool. My bunnies will rip the hutch door off to get at them when I take some out. :feed-plant: (Only once or twice a week though)

Thanks for the ideas. I will give these a try. I'm trying to keep the buns well fed but affordably.

Thanks for the recipes

I have ripe bananas. I can make some banana bread for the humans
and some cookies for the bunnies.

I cook for my chickens when I have potato peelings or other vegtable scraps.
Then I add other stuff to the mix and serve warm. Good on a cold winter day
