Swedes are also known as rutabagas.

Rabbits, being very curious creatures, will eat practically whatever falls before them. However, although a rabbit may indeed eat swede, it will do it no good. Rabbits are herbivores and don't eat animal products (meat).

Yes, it is safe to give your rabbit a small piece of swede; however, root veg should be a treat for your rabbit as it is not something they would naturally eat. Generally, root veggies like carrots, swede, and parsnips have a high sugar/starch content and not a lot of fibre. Your rabbit is better off eating more leafy veggies like spring greens, cabbage, kale and herbs such as parsley, mint and basil.

The House Rabbit Society recommends no more than 2 tablespoons fresh treats (including swede) per day for a normal, healthy 6 pound rabbit. See the related questions below for details and links about a healthy rabbit diet.

If you want to give your rabbit something to chew you should provide him with some willow branches which you can buy from all good pets stores. They are extremely cheap and will keep your buns teeth short and keep them entertained.

Hay is the best way to prevent many common illnesses in rabbits - including keeping the teeth worn down and keeping the bunny entertained. Willow and apple branches are a good supplement but the rabbit should have unlimited hay to nibble on 24/7.
