Often overlooked in favor of the root, carrot tops are a nutritious and safe addition to a rabbit's diet, offering vitamins A, K, and potassium, plus dietary fiber. Unlike the higher-sugar carrot root, the leafy greens are lower in carbohydrates. Moderation is key due to their oxalate content, which can contribute to kidney stones if fed in excess. Aim for no more than 1/2 cup per 4-pound rabbit daily, ensuring they are thoroughly washed and introduced gradually to avoid digestive upset.
