Can you feed a rabbit freshly grown vegtables?

Question

im getting a rabbit and i wanted to kno that...if i grown vegtables (ex...carotts) than can i feed the rabbit the vegtables that i grow or would it be bad for them or good for them

Answer 1

It depends what type, but for most veggies you can, only if you don't use Pesticides, and other chemicals.

Also, try not to feed too much lettuce. However you can not feed, iceberg lettuce, Chives, mushrooms,Avocado,Acorns,Onions, Garlic, or easter lilies. These will upset your bunnies stomache, and may harm him.

But carrots are certainly fine, just as long as they alos have hay, and pellets in their diet, these have the essential vitamins that the need. Also try to put in a salt and mineral l**k, they enjoy it, and it's good for them.

Have fun with your bunny!

Answer 4

Yep, it's actually better, since no chemicals and pesticides...

Good lucky with your rabbit, I have 2 rabbits!

Answer 5

yes! of course

Answer 6

As a supplement, of course. Just remember that the staple of the rabbit's diet should be nutritious grasses such as Timothy Hay, or Orchard Grass. Supplementing that diet with freshly grown vegetables would be a nice addition to its diet as long as you use no pesticides. Greens should be given more than fruits(ex. tomatoes, cucumbers, etc.) Another healthy addition to a rabbit's diet would be clovers and dandilions.
