Dandelion. ^^

Hey! I know that you can feed dandelion to rabbits, and I have tons in my yard! does it matter which "type" of dandelion you give them? I have two.

^ there's that type...

^ and that type. which one should I feed my future bunbun? ^^

 

[tonyshuman]

The second one I know is fine. I don't know about the first one--I think it's a different species from what's normally eaten by bunnies (and people).

 

[TheRockinRabbit]

I thought so, thank you! yeah, they looked really different from one another, and I wasn't quite sure which one I could feed him. ^^

I know when I buy dandelions from the store, it is always the second type you posted.

 

[TheRockinRabbit]

^ you can buy dandelion?

o-o that's news to me. where?

 

[Holland_Lop]

whole foods is the only grocery store that I have found to sell dandelions. It's a huge amount, and about 2-3 dollars a bundle.

 

[Amy27]

I purchase mine at either Giant Eagle or Meijers. But not all locations have them. My buns love them.

Katie, you can buy Dandelion Leaves at Wallyworld (Supestotres), No Frills, Food Basics, Super Store, Metro (expensive here), Sobeys (on sale this week). Usually the go for $1.99 fora bunch.

ooooh, thank you! That'll be much easier than picking them and dealing with the dirt and bugs. XC

woot!

They love the "flower" part, the yellow.

Crystal so why aren't the wild bunnies eating those darn dandylion flowers before they go to seed and produce what seems like a million more dandylions in my grass? :biggrin:

Maybe they get full on grass and weeds? That's a good question though.
