Hi
I know dandelions, chickweed & vetch are all ok for guineas but I've recently got an abandoned rabbit ( keeping separately) & found out young dock leaves, coltsfoot, plantain & groundsel are all good for them & grow in abundance at my allotment. Are any of these ok for the pigs? Don't want to poison them !
thanks
Lynn:
 
Plantain is definitely OK. Both the broad leaf & long leaf varieties. I've read that young dock leaves are OK but never tried them.
 
As far as I know coltsfoot and groundsel are potentially toxic and dock should only be fed as young leaves and not after flowering.
