Best Answer

Rabbits do enjoy curly dock, Rumex crispus. However, there is a poisonous look alike, Rumex acetosa, which is harmful to rabbits.

Also, Rumex species contain oxalic acid, which can impair calcium absorption in rabbits and humans, so it should not be too large a part of the diet of either.

According to most rabbit care sites the leaf of the dock plant is fine as an occasional treat but the seeds of the dock are not. Most rabbits will avoid poison but best to be careful and only offer your rabbit fresh young dock leaves.

Can rabbits eat lettuce once in a while?

Rabbits can eat dark-coloured lettuces (like romaine, green leaf, red leaf, mesclun mix). These sorts of lettuces can be incorporated into the rabbit's daily "salad": too much lettuce, though, can lead to illness (like diarrhea). However, rabbits can't eat white-coloured lettuces (like iceberg, romaine hearts) -- these have little nutritional value for rabbits, and they can lead to illness (like diarrhea). See the related question below for more info about the rabbit diet.

Can rabbits eat Green Leaf lettuce?

In the long term YES! It has no nutrients, It is mainly water. They will eat it happily and will feel full but if offered to them as a main part of their diet, they will starve to death. I tried to save a bunny that died from a main diet of iceberg. Dark leafy greens such as Romaine and Green leaf in moderation as treats are great for them.
