I am new to rabbits. I am calling around in my area thinking I might buy a bale of hay from the feed store as it is sigificantly cheaper than buying it any other way. We have coastal hay around here. Does anyone know of a source where I could get Timothy locally?
My main concern with Coastal is that it is a type of bermuda grass which is extremely invasive. The thing that finally put me over the top in deciding to finally get a rabbit is that I can use the manure in the garden. That's a big plus for me as I doubled the size of my garden this year. I fight bermuda enough in the garden the way it is. I am not sure I want to feed the rabbit coastal hay only to introduce more bermuda in the garden when I use the manure. Has anyone fed coastal, then used the rabbit manure in the garden and had problems with the bermuda seeding itself in the garden?
Thanks for your thoughts.
