If I was going to fertilize a pasture, my first choice would be to winter feed livestock at high stocking rate to let them spread their own manure. Second choice is whatever manure you can get cheap and delivered. Third would be municipal compost. If you can't buy it by the ton, it won't be cost effective to use for more than 1/4 acre.

Contact the State Fair Board and ask them who is the largest Rabbit grower. I did and I found a guy who has 300 rabbits of his own and two people have 100 rabbits each on the same land. That is 500 rabbits and the manure is 18" deep and has turned into soil after that. The pile is 24" deep and it takes me a week to shovel it all and moved it to my farm. We are talking 20,000 pounds of Rabbit manure and composted soil and 5-6" of actual dirt which is primarily worm castings.

Sheep manure is great and easy to spread more even on a hay field,or pasture,so would goat manure.
