I thought maybe gooseberry. Thanks Omi. Yes it is wild - is that bad?

I'm impressed

I've been out all day today, so the rabbits had to make do with me making a couple of quick tours round the garden early this morning and this evening in between thunder storms to collect stuff for them.

Haha, no not bad, I'm just surprised

ahh good :thumb: Can bunnies eat the leaves? I'll take the fruit for me. Never had gooseberry but I'm a big fan of rhubarb & they are supposed to be similar:?

I've never fed them, mainly because we don't grow gooseberries (and I've NEVER seen them growin in the wild) , but the Kanin.org website says both leaves and twigs are OK.

Hope you enjoy the fruit.

Safe?

 

[Omi]

They look like Ox-eye Daisy to me. I've no idea if they are safe or not. They grow in the garden here and I have never thought to feed them.

I've just looked online and found a website that says it's safe. Also a previous thread here has a post from Rabbit Nutrition , who say it is safe.
