Rabbits are herbivores, meaning they eat only plants. Their diet should consist of a variety of hay, fresh vegetables, and a small amount of pellets. Here is a more detailed look at each type of food and how much of it to feed your rabbit:

What to Feed a Pet Rabbit

Hay

1. Hay should make up the majority of your rabbit's diet. It is a good source of fiber, which is essential for keeping your rabbit's digestive system healthy.

2. There are many different types of hay available, but timothy hay and orchard grass hay are two of the most popular choices for rabbits.

3. Feed your rabbit unlimited access to hay at all times.

Fresh Vegetables

1. Fresh vegetables are a great way to provide your rabbit with vitamins, minerals, and water.

2. Some good choices for rabbit-safe vegetables include carrots, celery, bell peppers, and leafy greens like romaine lettuce and spinach.

3. Feed your rabbit 1-2 cups of fresh vegetables per day.

Pellets

1. Pellets are a good way to provide your rabbit with concentrated nutrients.

2. Choose a pellet that is specifically designed for rabbits and follow the feeding instructions on the package.

3. Generally, you should feed your rabbit 1/4 cup of pellets per day.

Other Food Items

1. In addition to hay, fresh vegetables, and pellets, you can also give your rabbit occasional treats.

2. Some good choices for rabbit treats include fruits, nuts, and seeds.

3. Limit treats to a few times per week and avoid giving your rabbit treats that are high in sugar or fat.

Water

1. Provide your rabbit with fresh, clean water at all times.

2. A water bottle with a sipper tube is a good option for rabbits.
