Judy loves vegetables!!
Rabbits count vegetables and herbs among their favorite foods. Most greens found in a supermarket are safe for rabbits, with a few limitations and exceptions. No more than 2 cups daily of fresh vegetables should be given to adult rabbits. A variety of two or three vegetables is ideal. Add one new vegetable at a time, and watch for signs of loose stool or diarrhea because of bunnies' delicate digestive systems. Certain vegetables can be given every day, while others should be fed sparingly — one or two times a week.
🚫 Do not feed your rabbit potatoes, corn, beans, seeds, or nuts. These foods are difficult for rabbits to digest and can cause serious digestive problems.
✅ Vegetables that can be fed to a rabbit daily:
• Bell peppers
• Bok choy
• Brussels sprouts
• Carrot tops
• Cucumber
• Endive
