Time to Harvest

9/9/2014

 
As Fall approaches this means we will lose some of our natural supply of treats.  A favorite here at our rabbitry is Raspberry leaves.  I also use Comfrey for my nursing does.  Along with that I learned grape leaves are a wonderful treat as well.  So before they dry up and crumble away I like to harvest them and dry them myself.  I have found the rabbits love them just as much after they have dried.  So once they are dried I like to keep them in paper bags.  I have found if you store them in plastic totes they often have enough moisture to mold.  And we all know what that would mean for our rabbits.  Another great thing to harvest right now are apple leaves and branches.  Lucky for us we just cut down a crab apple tree so my rabbits have snacks galore.  We believe in organic gardening which makes it nice for all our animals to use worry free.  
I am hoping to do several fall photos of our rabbits but for the time being I only managed to get a few of Kamis bucks she is growing out.  There are a couple others that are so incredible, but they are in their ugly duck phase.
