What do dwarf bunnies eat?

Answer 1

Rabbits of all types, small or large, should have the bulk of their diet consist of hay. A very small portion of a commercial pelleted mix from the pet store can be added to this, but no more than 1/4 cup per day. Fresh veggies daily are always a good idea!

Answer 2

Dwarf rabbits eat the exact same diet as all pet rabbits: lots of hay, some pellets every day, some fresh leafy greens every day, and -- if desired -- the occasional small bite or two of fruit or vegetable as a treat. Only certain fruits and vegetables are safe to eat. See the related question below for more details and helpful links about the rabbit diet.

Answer 3

Dwarf rabbits eat the same thing as other pet rabbits only in smaller quantities. See the related question linked below for more info and helpful links about the rabbit diet. Loosely speaking, rabbits eat:

1. Unlimited hay: It adds a lot of much needed fibre to their digestive system and it keeps their teeth in check (rabbit teeth never stop growing).
2. Fresh Veggies: 1 cup of fresh veggies for every three pounds of rabbit.
3. Pellets: Your rabbit doesn't have to have pellets but if you want them to have it the serving is 5-12 month rabbits need 1/2 for 6 pounds of rabbit. 1 year and older 1/4-1/2 cup for 6 pounds unless they start to gain weight.

Answer 5

Dwarf rabbits eat the exact same foods as all pet rabbits. See the related question below for more info about the rabbit diet -- it applies to dwarves, too. Dwarf rabbits eat mostly hay (grass hay, like timothy, for adults; alfalfa is good for babies), as well as daily meals of pellets and fresh leafy greens (like dark-coloured lettuces, herbs, weeds). Treats should be strictly limited because too many can make the rabbit very sick. Good treats are fresh fruits and vegetables like a bit of apple or carrot.

Answer 6

Dwarf lop rabbits eat the same diet as other pet rabbits. The biggest part of a rabbit's diet is hay. There are many things a rabbit should not eat! See the related link below for more info about what rabbits eat.

Another answer: Dwarf rabbits consume grasses, grains, and other succulent greens. Most of all, carrots.

A steady diet of any one food is not good for your bunnies' health. Good quality commercial pellets can be supplemented by a rotation of any of the above listed treats.

Answer 7

Dwarf rabbits need as much as any other rabbit they are just smaller. They are more prone to certain health conditions but do not necessarily have different needs than a commercial breed.

Answer 8

Timothy hay, orchard grass, dark leafy greens (parsley, romaine lettuce), vegetables, small piece of banana or apple or a baby carrot can be given as a treat.
