I see what you mean. I have done a bit of composting so not completely clueless (just close to it!). I will have to be creative. It is hard to describe the sheer lack of vegetative material here. If we had any trees to speak of, actually I have planted exactly 3 weeping willows, which lose their leaves, said leaves will blow away before being raked up. However, I do have some rose bushes that do well and those trimmings would add some different materials. And I can just look for stuff. Currently the floor of the pen is chipbase but we are going to move it and build a bigger run and I already told hubby I want to scrape back the chipbase from the new location. I am actually quite excited about the organic matter that is produced from the bunnies!

As for fermenting grains vs. layer pellets. I paid $1 more for a bag of scratch grain than I did for layer pellets this week. Last year, I paid $12.50/bag pellets. Now, it's $15.99. thank you very much emperor biden, and covid plandemic lock downs.
Scratch grain, interesting. I haven't come across this here. I will start looking now.

@Beekissed forget my silly question I now think I have my answer. Thanks @Lazy Gardener :)
