Although there are differing opinions about giving rabbits corn of any kind, I would err on the side of caution and say no. Corn is indigestible and if it gets stuck will block the rabbits intestine.

Why is corn bad for rabbits?

Corn, fresh or dried, is NOT safe for rabbits. The hull of corn kernels is composed of a complex polysaccharide (not cellulose and pectin, of which plant cell walls are more commonly composed, and which a rabbit can digest) which rabbits cannot digest. We know of more than one rabbit who suffered intestinal impactions because of the indigestible corn hulls. After emergency medical treatment, when the poor rabbits finally passed the corn, their fecal pellets were nearly solid corn hulls! Those rabbits were lucky.

Is layer feed or cracked corn best for adult ducks?

Layer feed is generally better for adult ducks compared to cracked corn. Layer feed is specifically formulated to meet the nutritional needs of laying ducks, providing essential proteins, vitamins, and minerals for optimal health and egg production. Cracked corn, while a tasty treat, is high in carbohydrates and low in essential nutrients, which can lead to nutritional imbalances if fed as a primary diet. Therefore, layer feed should be the main component of their diet, with cracked corn offered in moderation as a supplement.
