Different rabbit species eat different foods.

PET RABBITS

Pregnant Rabbits

Pregnant bunnies should basically eat their normal diet, but they might benefit from a bit more protein and calcium. You can talk to your vet about making changes to what your bunny eats. Your vet might suggest giving your bunny legume hay (like alfalfa or clover/lucerne), or changing her pellets to something specifically for pregnant/nursing rabbits.

Normal Diet

The right diet for your bunny depends on her size, health, activity levels, and other things, so you should talk to your vet about the details.

A normal healthy diet for pet rabbits rabbits includes:

  • Lots and lots of grass hay
  • Some fresh dark leafy greens
  • Some pellets
  • Optional: treats can include a few bites of fresh fruit or vegetables

Some fruits and vegetables are dangerous for rabbits. The information here is just a loose guide: please do more research to find out what foods specifically are safe for rabbits, and talk to your vet about it!

About Rabbit-Savvy Vets

If you don't already have a vet, you should be careful when you look for a new one. Not all vets are trained or experienced in rabbit care. Rabbits are very different from cats and dogs, and some medicines and procedures that are safe for those animals are deadly for rabbits. There is information online that can help you find a good vet for your rabbit. Start with the House Rabbit Society -- you can find their website by doing a web search.

Nursing Baby Bunnies will not eat anything until they are ready (about 2-3 weeks of age.) They will begin nibbling on hay and grasses and trying to eat rabbit pellets. (For awhile most of the pellet will drop thru the wire as they are too little to eat a whole pellet at once.) There is no 'special' baby bunny ration.Type your answer here...

Why would rabbits in an enclosed field eventually reach a stable number?

Too many rabbits would eat all the available vegetation resulting in starvation. The deaths of many rabbits would allow the vegetation to regrow. The surviving rabbits would eat it and reproduce, the cycle would repeat. Eventually a balance between numbers of rabbits and growth of vegetation would be achieved.
