Answer 1

hello there

rabbits should be ready to eat greens other vegetables when they have developed fur already(also known as weaning).at this stage,try to feed them small amounts of greens added to their diet.they may not accept these greens at first but they'll learn to love them.

then,add  an additional amount of greens everyday when they have started eating greens.but remember to feed greens only once a day to avoid diarrhea.avoid iceberg lettuce,apple cores and potatoes.those greens will usually cause a bad case of diarrhea nd must be avoided especially for newly-weaned rabbits.

best wishes and have a nice day!

Answer 2

Rabbits should not be given greens until they are fully weaned, which is around the age of 5 weeks, but you should still wait a couple weeks until they are about 8 weeks old. At least, that is what I do. I start by giving the mother a pile of greens and letting the babies nibble on some, but you have to watch that they don't get too much, or they could die of diarrhea. I start by giving them dandelion leaves that I pick from my back yard (though make sure that nothing has been sprayed on them that could harm the rabbits). This is the same age that you should start giving them full access to hay and alfalfa grass, which helps to stabilize their diet.

Answer 3

If a baby bunny is old enough to be weaned from it's mother, then it's old enough to eat veges. I don't have pics, but the eyes should definatley be open and it will be hopping about on it's own. No hurt in trying.  Try lettuce (green, red.. NOT iceberg) first. and not all bunnies like carrots. My rabbit won't touch them, but she'll fight for parsley and dandelion leaves.
