Willow twigs

I have seen alot of willow toys/rings/twigs but I can't seem to get any here. I have willow trees in my paddock but I was wondering if it was the same? Just the normal weeping willow? There are different types of willows here and I didn't know if maybe you had a different tree over there called a willow. I would hate to give my bun some random twig because it was just called the same thing.

I'm pretty sure it is the same though which brings me onto the next thing. I've heard that you should snap what you want off and then leave it to dry out over a period of three months. Is this true? If it is then that really sucks.

And what about the leaves? Are they ok? and if I was going to try and make one of those rings then what do I fasten the ends with?

i believe you have to soak them befor you try to weave them...then dry them? :?

Yeah I suppose being wet will help them bend without snapping. But does any one know the answers to my other questions. If its the same, do you have to dry them etc.

Yes, they need to be dried. As far as I know, the only twigs that can be fed fresh are apple twigs. There is a way to dry them with an oven, but I haven't been able to find that article again so I don't know what temperature or for how long.

If I was going to dry them without an oven do you know the drying time? Do bunny basics make their own maybe I could PM them.

The other day when I was getting my food from Pets at Home I noticed they were selling Willow Twigs!

There are no P@H in australia, but from what I've heard that's something to be happy about.

Sorry I didn't relise you was in Aussie you lucky thing

thats alright, i have to admit i always assume everyone else is from the uk but some are from america.
