No, that's way too much sugar. 1 tablespoon of apple every couple of days is okay, but not necessary. Rabbits have a big sweet tooth, and they will overindulge if you let them. Rabbits need to eat a very specialized diet. They have very sensitive digestive systems. Too much sugar can upset the gut bacteria and cause life-threatening problems. Refer to Related Questions below for more information.
Apples can give rabbits diarrhea, especially juvenile rabbits (younger than 8 or 9 months) and adult rabbits who have eaten a whole lot of apple. If your juvenile rabbit has diarrhea, this is an emergency requiring immediate veterinary attention. Hesitation will only cost your rabbit precious minutes! An adult rabbit with diarrhea or mushy stool should also see a vet as soon as possible (that very day; or the next day, if it's currently after office hours), and the rabbit should be cared for at home (first aid) until that time. If your rabbit is healthy, and eating a balanced diet, a bite or two of apple every few days or so shouldn't be a problem. Rabbits like apple and it makes a great treat! Remove all seeds before giving any apple to your rabbit. Apple seeds are toxic.
Apple skin is a good treat for rabbits: it has fibre in it (which is great for rabbits), and it's not as sweet as the apple itself. Still, apple skin is pretty high in sugars, so it should be considered a treat only. The House Rabbit Society recommends no more than 2 tablespoons of treat food per day for a normal, healthy 6 pound rabbit. See the related question below for more info about the rabbit diet.
Yes, rabbits can eat many common fruits, vegetables and other vegetarian foods, including apple.Rabbits can eat apple, but only in small amounts as a treat.One opinion: If you have pet rabbits, don't give them too much apple. A small bite or two or a small slice of apple every few days should be okay as a treat for your rabbit, assuming she's otherwise healthy and eating a balanced diet. A healthy rabbit diet consists mostly of hay, with some fresh greens and some high-quality pellets daily. See the related question below for more details and helpful links about the rabbit diet.Another opinion: If a rabbit is at least 4 months old and has no history of digestive problems, they can safely enjoy one quarter of an apple at a time (depending on the rabbit's size). Bunnies love apple cores as well, so you can give him the core when you finish the rest. Remove apple seeds, though, because they're toxic.Another opinion: A quarter of an apple is a huge treat! And 4 month is too young. Too much sugar can make a rabbit sick. The House Rabbit Society recommends no more than 2 tablespoons of treats (fresh fruit or veg) per day for a normal, healthy 6 pound adult rabbit. Also, rabbits shouldn't eat treats until they're 6 months old.
Just once a day, but leave the food in all day and night. Give it about 1 tablespoon of feed per pound that your rabbit weighs. Unlimmeted hay is good, and just a little bit of fruit or vegetables once a day. Make sure not to give your rabbit iceberg lettuce. Berries, celery, kale and parsley and other lettuces are ok. Also, small pieces of apple or pineapple are ok.
its fine. but if it does it many times a day that means its sick or has been near too much dust
Yes
No, but a wub wub wub a day will give you an eargasm a day.
Yes. A carrot really should not make a rabbit sick. Mine eat them all the time. Just make sure the carrot is washed and don't give them large amounts. If you do not give the rabbit enough fresh food and this is a change of diet, it may give it an upset stomach. Start out with new foods gradually. If the rabbit has diarrhea for some other reason besides a change in diet, it may not be so okay. If a rabbit is actually sick with bacteria or a virus it can dehydrate quickly. If it has not had it for long, you can pick up rabbit diarrhea medicine at most pet stores. If it has had it more than a day with no improvement, take it to the vet.
It means he/she wants you to hold it and give it love! One thing when you get a rabbit means you vow to love it every day! <3
Depends on the relationship you have with his mother. How close and what not
One Opinion: No it's not. Rabbit eats fresh vegetables, dried grass and commercial rabbit food.Another Opinion: There are some flowers that rabbits enjoy eating and that aren't dangerous to give them as a treat (like dandelions), but there are also many other kinds of flowers that are toxic and could make them ill or even kill them. Research carefully before you give any flowers to your rabbit -- or any plants at all, for that matter.Treats should always be limited. If your rabbit eats too many treats, he won't want to eat enough hay (which he needs lots of every day to maintain healthy digestion and teeth).Always make sure the plants you give to your rabbit are free from poisons like pesticides. You should also get your rabbit's feces tested annually by your vet to make sure she hasn't ingested any parasites.
