The word "feed" usually refers to dried, processed foods that are given to animals. The only kind of feed that rabbits can eat is pellets made specifically for rabbits. If the package of feed lists any animal other than rabbit, then it is extremely unhealthy for rabbits. Rabbits have specific dietary requirements and only rabbit feed is okay for them.

Feed should only make up a small portion of a rabbit's diet. The most important part of a rabbit's diet is hay. In addition, rabbits can also eat fruits and vegetables in moderation. Dark leafy greens (like dark coloured lettuce) are good for a rabbit's daily "salad" but all other vegetables (like carrot, tomato) should be considered treats. Too many treats can lead to serious illness in a rabbit.

A previous user wrote that rabbits can eat pretzels and bread but these foods are very unhealthy for rabbits and can lead to serious illness. Rabbits shouldn't eat any processed human foods at all.

What will happen to a rabbit if eats molded dry feed stuck to the side of the feeding goal?

Rabbits who eat dry moldy feed at the very least will get diarrhea and a very bad tummy ache. Most likely it will kill them. If a rabbit is left to it's own devises in the wild they WILL NOT eat moldy feed. But if penned in a cage with moldy feed the rabbit is most likely to eat it out of boredom if nothing else.
