I've often wondered what rabbit feces would do as well. I've got a rabbit and have considered using her pellets as ferts too. Anyone know anything about that either?

Nothing which indicates that it would be a good idea to use fecal matter as plant food.

I thought I had come up with a money saveing idea.

Dog poo has too much protein and it would kill the MJ.
If it sounds crazy it probably is.

Any poo you use has to be composted first.
Poo from vegetarian animals is appropriate for compost.
Dog shit is not good.
Rabbit pellets should be added to your compost heap, but will make good fertilizer when they become chemically less 'hot'.

Raw dog shit added to soil = bad idea
