Ian is taking us out to the countryside and was hoping to get some natural Rabbit goodies,
any suggestions and how do I prepare them for the buns?
any suggestions and how do I prepare them for the buns?
nettles if you can bear the sting, plantain if you can find it too
hawthorn leaves get munched here too
have fun but only give little bits just like normal introduction of veg, i think bramble is the only foodstuff that doesnt require an introduction (according to that rabbit book i bought)
Are nettles ok for them to eat then? Sounds stooopid but do they not sting their mowffs and tongues?
I have plantain in my little sort of garden
Just had my bramble ramble - now have very sore fingers :lol:
Got a big basket full of bramble leaves, plus I found a wild raspberry patch!!!! Only managed a few raspberry stalks, cos they were surrounded by nettles, so will be going back armed with wellies and long trousers....
Have already got some stuff dried - at least the hot weather is good for drying. I got some brown paper bags to keep the different plants separate, and theyre all neatly lined up in a large cardboard box
If you don't mind me asking, what sort of things have you dried? Also, how long do they take to dry? I've attempted to dry a few bramble leaves, but I'm not sure if they're done :? - what should they look like?
Sorry for so many questions! :lol:
