On the subject of "things which are embarrassing"

And also "things that have to do with the garden", I need to make my raised-ish beds, as stated. And I need to get some composted manure for the garden. And I need to save money on this.

How likely is it that pet stores already give their rabbit poop away to people like me, and how strange would it be to call and ask? How about a rabbit rescue organization? The zoo is likely sewn up with their goats and all, but.... You know I hate calling, so I don't want to bother if they likely are already giving manure all away to others who called sooner.

Phoning is too easy to get brushed off, or put on hold and 'lost'. Better to go in person, walke into the employees' area, and stand there till they send someone who can answer.

Might be a good idea to research in advance whether fresh rabbit manure is a good choice, though.

Apparently it is a great choice because it doesn't have to be aged, unlike virtually every other type of manure out there.

Call and ask!! If someone called me and asked if they could have rabbit poop I'd have it in buckets ready for them to pick up the next day. And I only have four adult rabbits and more poop/compost/soil than I could ever know what to do with. Rabbits always poop, they never stop, even if they've given some away more is being made as we speak. I call them composting tubes with ears.

It's a pity you live on the other side of the country from me, then!
