Best Answer

Some types of carrot are naturally small-growing, and others are just harvested early.

-- While this may have been true some time ago, the truth is that now nearly 100% of baby carrots sold in stores are regular full grown carrots which have been cut down to a small and somewhat uniform size.

Most of the carrots used to make baby carrots are ones which would have only been sold for animal feed or simply thrown away due to small cosmetic defects. By taking these carrots and cutting them down the farmers lose less of their crop while providing a healthy snack to us overeating Americans.

How many carrots can a baby bunny have?

A 'baby' bunny should not have any carrots. At 5 or 6 months you can start giving carrots as treats this is after their system has gotten strong enough to have treats. As for how many??? 1/4 to 1/3 of a normal sized carrot or 2 baby carrots. Rabbits really prefer carrot tops to carrots though.


How many large carrots equal a pound?

all baby carrots are different sizes, because they are grown that way. If you encounter two of the same sized baby carrots, it is because they are cloned. if you are asking how many cloned baby carrots it would take to make one real carrot, the answer would of course rely on how large the cloned baby carrot is in size. if the cloned baby carrot were approximately a sixth of a normal carrot in size? I would concur that a normally grown carrot would equal 6 smaller baby carrots. I concur.
