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.

Yes, rabbits can eat dark Green Leaf lettuce. Rabbits should not eat white or light-coloured lettuce leaves because they're low in nutritional value and can lead to illness (diarrhea). Green Leaf is a good lettuce to include in the rotation of daily "salad" greens. Lettuces (any and all varieties) shouldn't be fed in large amounts or every day though, as too much can lead to illness -- so don't offer a "salad" of Green Leaf, Red Leaf, and Romaine!

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.

What kinds of lettuce can rabbits not eat?

Just like humans, different rabbits have different taste preferences. The only way to know what type of foods one rabbit prefers is to observe her reactions when you feed it to her. Not all lettuces are healthy for rabbits. Avoid white/light-coloured varieties entirely (like iceberg and romaine hearts) because these are low in nutritional value for rabbits, and can lead to illness (like diarrhea). Dark-coloured lettuces (like fully-grown romaine, red leaf, green leaf) are healthy in moderation: they can be included in the rabbit's "salad" but they shouldn't be fed every day. See the related question below for more info about the rabbit diet.

They mostly eat carrots. <><><> Not carrots, but green carrot TOPS. Or alfalfa, or most green leafy plants. They really seemed to enjoy the leaf lettuce in my garden this year. They also like to eat banannas. I have a friend that if you have a bananna and pass his cage without giving it some of your bananna, he'll get mad at you.

Can dwarf rabbits eat lettuce?

Dwarf rabbits can eat the same foods as other pet rabbits. When it comes to pet rabbit diet, the important factor isn't breed but size: small rabbits eat smaller portions! Rabbits can eat some varieties of lettuce in moderation. Dark-coloured varieties (like romaine, green leaf, red leaf) are healthy and can be included in the rabbit's "salad," but too much can lead to gas or diarrhea or other illness, so lettuce shouldn't be fed every day. White/light-coloured varieties of lettuce should be avoided entirely because they too easily lead to diarrhea, and they're low in nutritional value anyway. See the related question below about the pet rabbit diet (it applies to dwarves as well).
