We didn't have the space in our garden for a proper rabbit colony & gave up after a doe died from a double pregnancy, but we are currently pasturing our rabbits individually with their kits in the garden & it is working very well indeed.
Every night I walk the dogs & collect 3 bags of grass, shrubbery, dandelion leaves, dock leaves, clover etc etc. 1 bag is next days feed & the other 2 bags are to dry out into hay to be packed for the winter.
I couldn't see pasturing rabbits in an unsecure area being a good idea, but I'm really glad now that I'm not paying a penny for food & hay & my rabbits look stunning. No escapees & we have dogs to alert about any predators. Plus its nice to put effort into the little meals
I wonder how nice they will taste.
