[Digestion] Rabbit Manure (was RE: High costs of biogass plants in Norway)

[Paul Harris]

G'day All,

Apparently rabbits have rapid digestive throughput (so they can outrun foxes
- as an aside the record speed for a rabbit is apparently equal to that for
a fox, possibly because the fox was chasing the rabbit) so their manure will
be much higher in nutrients than cow manure. Sheep and kangaroos will eat
rabbit droppings as they can extract energy. This means you will get more
biogas.

Happy digesting,
HOOROO

Do you have any numbers like that for rabbit manure?
