A healthy rabbit diet. The safe serving is one packed cup at 2 lbs of the body weight per day in a rotating cycle. Hay and water are essential foods. Up to 2 tbsp daily.

I go a little bit deeper into a healthy rabbit diet in this post but i feel it s important that i go over the basics here before we take a look at the fruit and vegetables rabbit food list. Baby rabbits need more protein so give them pellets and alfalfa hay. Apple no core or anything containing seeds unless all seeds removed apricots no pits banana fruit and peel blackberry stem leaf and fruit blueberries. The most important thing for a healthy rabbit diet is hay hay should be the primary source of a rabbit s diet in fact it should make up as much as 70 of their food intake.

The rabbit should not receive another type of leafy greens along with beet greens. Ensuring that your baby rabbit is sufficiently nourished will mean healthy bones and muscle mass into adulthood. Feed very very sparingly. For young rabbits first introduction to greens it s best to avoid fruits though these can be introduced as treats later.

Leafy greens except lettuce are best for rabbits for example dandelion leaves carrot tops kale spinach spring greens raspberry blackberry leaves and herbs such as parsley and basil.
