All pet rabbits eat the same foods. Breed doesn't make a difference. See the related questions below for details about what rabbits eat: the information there is true of all pet rabbits, including American Blues.

In Summary:

Personal preference does make a difference in rabbits - just like with humans. Through experimentation, you can find out what foods your rabbit likes, and what she (or he) doesn't!

Make sure you only give your rabbit safe, healthy foods to eat. The mainstay of the rabbit's diet should be lots and lots of hay, with some pellets daily, and a salad of dark leafy green vegetables. Other vegetables and fruit are good treats.

Although rabbits like foods that are high in sugars and starch, these aren't good for them. Don't give your rabbit any foods made for people, like bread, cereal, oatmeal, cookies, crackers, etc. Most store-bought treats are unhealthy, too. Some store-bought treats are okay, but they're more expensive than fruit so why waste your money?

A bad diet leads to poor health, behaviour problems, and illness. Don't risk your bunny's health for no good reason: stick to what you know is safe.

Rabbits are known to eat pellets, grass and hay. They also like plenty of vegetables and lots of water.

The same thing that all rabbits eat: tons of fresh hay, some healthy greens, and limited high-quality pellets.
