Hello Hivers ๐๐,
This is the African spinach Green vegetable that we have here in west African Nigeria and I also know that this is how it is in other part of the world. Although the spinach family is numerous such that it is categorized in different division of Species. Even here in Nigeria we have close to 2 to 3 type of species that is called this spinach family. But this one you are saying in the article is mainly the African spinach.
This African spinach is extremely different from other green vegetables although it important is also numerous in the sense that, it can also be used to feed animals just like every other green vegetables. But on the other hand other species of vegetable is required in a moderate size so that your animals will not end up with different types of diseases or illness like the diarrhea. This diarrhea is very dangerous to animals both the small animals and the big or the large animals. If care is not a king you may lose almost half of your flock or animals if you are taking it for granted. That is why even when I'm using this spinach just like the way you are seeing it I am always conscious of the quantity for the smaller animals. But for the adult ones you can also minimize but feed them in a large quantity. When they are full or filled up they will leave it for a couple of hours then go back to it again to chew it. That is why when your rabbits are becoming extremely old they do consume a lot.
I intentionally planted the African spinach for this purpose because of the animals and also for the consumption of Man. When you have a very good and healthy seed it will ensure a very long period Of planting without going back to the field to replant it again. So when I cultivate the African spinach this planting season, I will ensure that some of them reach a very good maturity stage where they will showcase a lot of seed on them. Afterwards I will leave some of them to get dried up and some of them will also drop on the soil. This leftover will germinate the next season and that is how it goes all over again. That is a little secret about farming.
You need to be creative and you need to be wise. When you do this it will help you a lot to figure out so many other ways by which you can attract a lot of great benefits to your animal through natural grasses and leaves.
I always cut the African spinach closely every week. This is because it grow up by itself in a large quantity so I needed to minimize the population. So I use them to feed my animals as alternative for food or feed.
This is how I administer the African spinach to the animals although these are big ones and they are fully matured so it is easy to feed them naturally. Even when they eat for so many hours they cannot get on with the diarrhea.
- Immediately the weaner rabbits consume large quantity of green leaves, African spinach or any other grasses or legumes.it will surely end up with diarrhea and it cost it life if you did not take good care of it within few hours.
That is why keeping rabbit is not too expensive but when it comes to the other part of the season you may end up running here and there for survial. But literally you can base them on green vegetative plants and they will survive but you can also include little of pellet feed which I'll be showing in the next article post.
In west African Nigeria or the mix breed of rabbit can eat it but only for the hybrids. Even the hybrids you must also place them on some certain green vegetative plant for feeding routine.
