You can supplement your rabbit’s diet with a variety of veggies every day, but you need to introduce new foods slowly and in small amounts. Make sure that you watch for any soft stool, diarrhea, or signs of gas pains. Stick with veggies that are not high in carbs, and always avoid iceberg lettuce.
Rabbits can eat asparagus. It doesn’t have a lot of calories, and it is high in fiber. In addition, it is a great source of antioxidants. It is very low in sugar, and it contains essential vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, vitamin A, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, folate, vitamin E, and vitamin K. Many rabbits like asparagus a lot, and you should wash it thoroughly before you offer it to your rabbit. You can feed an adult rabbit a two-inch section of thick asparagus or a four-inch section of thick asparagus two or three times a week. Do not give it to a baby.
Cabbage is another leafy green, and you can feed it to your rabbit. However, you should introduce it very slowly because it can cause gas. Cabbage has plenty of nutrients, and most rabbits love it. You should feed your rabbit five leaves or less, and you can feed it daily to adult rabbits.
Kale is a nutritional powerhouse, but in large quantities it can lead to bloating and gas. It is very good for your bunny from a nutritional perspective, so you should feed small amounts and introduce it very slowly to make sure that your rabbit tolerates it. Start with one leaf, and don’t give it to your rabbit more than two or three times a week.
Rabbits often enjoy fruits as a small treat. You should become familiar with fruits your rabbit can and cannot eat, and do not feed fruits more than once or twice a week. Take a look at the following list of fruits to determine which ones are safe to feed your rabbit.
Peaches offer a lot of vitamins and minerals that are good for rabbits, including vitamin A, vitamin C, potassium, folate, manganese, magnesium, pantothenic acid, copper, calcium, iron, vitamin K, and phosphorus. The pits do contain cyanide, which is toxic to bunnies, so make sure that you remove them. They do have sugar in them, so make sure to limit it to one teaspoon of peaches per two pounds of body weight, and give it to your rabbit once or twice a week.
Rabbits can eat pears. Not only are they safe for your bunny, but they are healthy, crisp, and refreshing. You need to remove the pit and seeds, which are toxic to rabbits. They contain vitamin C and K as well as fiber, copper, and antioxidants. You can feed your rabbit one or two small slices a few times a week.
If you want to feed pineapple to your rabbit, you need to be careful. It contains a lot of sugar, which can lead to gas and bloating. However, it is loaded with vitamins and minerals, and most rabbits love the taste. Keep it to one teaspoon once or twice a week.
Although strawberries have high sugar content, your rabbit can enjoy a tablespoon of strawberries once or twice a week. Rabbits love the sweet taste of strawberries, but you need to be careful not to feed them too much.
You can feed watermelon to your rabbit, and it has a lot of vitamin C and potassium, as well as antioxidants. You should limit it to one tablespoon per two pounds of body weight, and if you feed too much, it can cause digestive issues. You should remove the seeds first.
Rabbits enjoy fresh herbs, and you should offer a mixture of fruits, veggies, and fresh herbs to provide a mix of texture, taste, and nutrition. However, you can’t feed all herbs to your bunny. Take a look at the following.
You can feed basil to your rabbit. It is similar to a leafy green with a strong scent. You should limit the amount. The best idea is to throw together a small salad, such as romaine lettuce, a piece of basil, and a blueberry or raspberry.
Mint is safe for your rabbit to have as a treat. It is sweet and can actually help with digestive problems. However, you should not feed it too much. You can give a small amount to your rabbit as a supplement to its hay.
