In my search for fall amendments, I found a rabbit breeder with a big pile of rabbit manure mixed in pine shavings. Sounds pretty appetizing to me. When I google rabbit manure I like what I find. Anyone with first hand experience using rabbit manure that would give me some pointers?
Thanks

Rabbit Poop is a very well balanced "COLD MANURE" that can be added directly to the patch with out composting. How many pine shavings are there..as this may be an issue and composting will be your best bet.

I think rabbit is a lot like Alpaca poop! i grew my 260.5 melon in that directly added no composting like Linus said.

It looks like about 60-70% manure and 30-40% shavings. Make a compost pile or add it right now?

If it has visible shavings compost it... add a little lime, make it damp but not wet and cover it. If you have leaves and grass clipping mix them in and let her bake
