I have been feeding my rabbit lettuce for about 4 months and he is starting to get really skinny i think he is sick will he die from this?
Iceberg lettuce can NOT cause a rabbit death but it has no nutrients value and it COULD get your rabbit sick. Overall, iceberg lettuce for your rabbit should be avoided.
if you are talking about feeding your rabbit pet then i would suggest going to your local pet store and asking someone. but if you just want to feed one in your backyard then carrots, lettuce, etc.
Lettuce!! NEVER EVER feed a rabbit lettuce
Mutualism - the rabbit benefits from the nutrients in lettuce, while the lettuce benefits when the rabbit disperses its seeds through feces.
It is OK to give ANY rabbit a small amount of lettuce as a treat only, anytime. The only rabbit who can eat as much lettuce as they want is the wild rabbit who has access to herbs and minerals to counter balance the lettuce. Domestic rabbit owners should remember the tale of Peter Rabbit and what happened to him when he ate too much lettuce in Mr. MacGregor's garden.
NO.
Predation. The rabbit eats the lettuce for nourishment.
The verb in the sentence, 'munched' is a transitive verb, a verb that takes an object.An intransitive verb requires no object, for example: The rabbit munched the lettuce and slept. (no object required for the verb 'slept')The easy way to recognize a linking verb is that a linking verb acts as an equals sign, the object is a form of the subject (The rabbit is white. rabbit=white); or the subject becomes the object (The rabbit got wet. rabbit->wet).The rabbit is not and does not become the lettuce.
No. The rabbit only uses a fraction of of the energy. As a general rule of thumb, 90% of the energy in an animal's food goes to waste.
Some lettuce is poisonous to rabbits and can cause stomachaches. some lettuce can even be fatal.
I gave some lettuce to my rabbit to nibble on. I planted some lettuce, carrots and tomatoes in the garden.
