My Iggy Salad (MY VERSION)
This is what I do: Green Beans: Chop up in a blender Parsnips & Squash: Shredded fine in a food processor or use a food grater. Alfalfa: I use fresh alfalfa because I have horses, but what you can do with the rabbit pellets is put them in a blender and make a powder out of them. Fruit:Well I just put the fruit on the side or on top of the salad b/c mine don’t like fruit ( I have weird Iggys) I tried to mix the raspberries in the salad and it looked GROSS. I mix all the veggie together after they are chopped & shredded and add the alfalfa.
Then I put it in a food saver bag, and then I roll it into a loaf and vacuum pack it, you can use a zip lock freezer bag too and roll all the air out of it. Put it in the freezer. Then when I need some I just bring out the loaf and cut a chunk of it off and put it in a bowl with folded paper towels to soak up the moisture and pop it in the microwave on defrost. I defrost enough for about three days. I like them to have fresh food. I keep this in the refrigerator. Ready to feed. I cut up some greens (collard greens) in their bowls
Add some salad & fruit and feed, mine will eat a bowl in the late morning and early afternoon, they are little pigs.
I hope this helps anyone who is having trouble with MK’s salad..... |

also i have an idea..maybe some of you wont agree with it because you are overly causious but i put in about a half of a bag of welchs dried mixed fruit...it stays in tact without getting all nasty they have about 3 different kinds. like i said i think that its welchs...its about 250 or so but they like it ok so i get it sometimes |

How important is it to feed them alfalfa? I guess I should run out and get it and start feeding it to Sam. Ugh..I wish I had seen emphasis on the alfalfa sooner then now. Also, is it okay to mix the greens and the veggies and give to them like that. Sam is very active and has a good appetite. I am currently feeding her collards (bad season for them right now though) and dandelion though I do have some chicory and escarole right now (not usually what I feed her) and mixed alittle with the dandelion. Butternut squash she loves. Acorn she is "eh" with. She does not like green beans or parsnip at all. Today I shredded some yuca (reintroduced that after a long time) and chayote for the first time. She seemed to like both. She loves watermelon. Am I doing harm by giving her a one inch piece (apprx total amt) pretty much daily?? My son says I am harming her by doing so. I was giving her a few organic blueberries in the morning for a while but she lost taste for those. She is not crazy about mango and does not like fig at all :) OK sorry to be so winded here Thanks Hugs, Tone~ |

Yes you can feed them together I just don’t freeze the collard leaves, tried it one time, they become very rubbery and tough. You might also try shredding the parsnips really fine and chop up the green beans in the blender or processor really small, that way everything kinda sticks together and they have no choice but to eat it, it’s too hard for them to pick through it. |
