Rabbits the garden... the good kind.

There are two fertilizers that I think work especially well in the garden.

Chicken and hard pellet poop such as rabbit & goats.

I’ve had rabbits for years. You wouldn’t think their waste amounts to much but it adds up after a while. The great thing about rabbit waste is that you can apply the pellets right onto the garden material and it won’t burn your plants. Sort of like a natural commercial product that feeds up to 3 months.

I’ve used it for years and lately we’ve had some newcomers that were domestic rabbits that escaped and populated half the village. Two were given to use that we thought were two females. I should have checked but it’s like asking Mrs. Tasmanian Devil for a yearly “woman” exam.

Needless to say out of the two we have had three batches of babies. We rehomed all the males which were much easier to determine as they were handled. But evidently, we rehomed one day too late.

We have three beautiful baby bunnies all white Two with blue eyes, and one red.

They fit into the palm of you hand – so cute. The blue eyes are striking and I’ve never seen that before. Genetically I’ve been told it’s impossible that the albino has the dominate traits. I am not a geneticist. I just know this is the first time I’ve ever seen it and wow! When they get bigger we’ll get more pictures.
