Sure, deer can technically eat potato peelings, but it's not the best idea. Potato peelings contain solanine, a toxic compound that can be harmful to deer if consumed in large quantities. So, while they may nibble on them, it's best to stick to their natural diet to keep them healthy and happy.

Do rabbits eat potato skin?

No, rabbits can't eat salted potato peelings, because processed seasonings and spices aren't good for rabbits, and too much salt isn't good for rabbits, either. Rabbits get all the minerals and salt they need in their pellets. Rabbits should only eat clean, fresh produce (vegetables, fruits, herbs, plants), not any dried seasonings or flavourings. Potato peelings aren't very good for rabbits because they're pretty high in starches. If you feed your rabbit pellets, you should limit the other starches they eat. Potato peelings aren't a great choice because other vegetables, like carrot and squash, have healthy nutrients as well as some starch, but potato isn't very nutritious. Also, the green parts and eyes on potato peelings are toxic to rabbits. See the related question below for more info and helpful links about a healthy rabbit diet.
