        We have designated our back lawn as “bunny lawn”. Since we live in California, we spend a lot of time outside and it’s almost always good weather for bunnies to spend some supervised time outside. Problem is, the lawn is slowly wasting away because we haven’t been able to feed/fertilize it since we don’t know if there is anything safe we can use. Our vet said that our best bet is probably an organic herbicide and then to keep the buns off for a week or two.

        Anyone with a green thumb/know how have advice for us? Our front lawn looks awesome, but has enough poison on it to take down a wildebeest…

          Can you just plant local grasses that would thrive in your area, so you don’t need to feed/fertilize it? We just have the local grass here and it stays green and grows like mad with just rain.

            no need to buy fertilizer – just spread the bunny poop around – 2nd best fertilizer available (worm poop being the best)

              Or you could buy some red wriggler worms and build a worm bin with a rubbermaid. feed the rabbit poop to the worms, feed the worm poop to the grass, feed the grass to the rabbits, repeat. I also have a copmpost pile where i compost yard debris, and I have started addng the rabbit litter to this which will later be spread over my garden and the area of lawn I plan on setting aside for Scat.

                    I’ve given numerous bags of bunny droppings (soaked WSP, hay, & poopies) to friends who just spread it out on their lawn directly without even composting. If you’re buns are out there enough, it should get pretty fertilized .

                    As far as weeds go, just dig them up by the root (bunnies love dandelions). It may take more work, but then you don’t need to use herbicides. Many of the ‘organic’ ones are just as bad, if not worse than the regular ones.

                      Thanks everyone, we already have a worm bin happening. We ended up pulling out all our back lawn to built a raised vegetable garden instead. We’re going to use one of the beds to plant bunny only grass and greens, and enclosing it so I can have some gardening buddies.
