Compost question
 
This may seem like an absurd question, but can bunny droppings and the bunny
bedding hay be put into the compost? Bunnies don't eat meat, so I thought
possibly yes. Is this okay?

Thanks

YES. Absolutely. The dropping can also be used directly on the garden
(just don't pile them on thickly).

Bunny poop is *prime* fertilizer. Spread lightly fresh, or allowed to
compost for a couple of weeks, it's finest kind. Latest issue of
Mother Earth News had a piece on raising rabbits I read just
yesterday. Made me want to adopt a rabbit or 2, as long as I could
keep them away from the green beans.

Of course they can. Even better, I think the bunny droppings can be used
as fertilizer pretty much as is.
