Do baby rabbits eat cauliflower?

No.

Cauliflower is not recommended for rabbits of any age.

Baby rabbits, once they're weaned, eat pellets and hay and drink water (they should have unlimited access, 24/7, to all three). At 12 weeks you can start introducing leafy greens. Be careful: tiny portions, one at a time, and watch for signs of ill-health.

See the related questions (linked below) for more information and helpful links about feeding baby rabbits.

NEVER feed your rabbits lettuce or cole family vegetables such as cabbage, kale, kohlrabi, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, or broccoli. They can get enteritis and possibly die. Never feed them meat. The safest thing to do is to just stick to rabbit pellets and alfalfa hay. For treats: celery tops not the actual stock just the part at the top, apples but not a lot or all the time as it will cause diarrhea.

Yes, and some like it very much. Others will not touch it. It all depends on your rabbits personal likes, but cucumbers are defiantly safe for rabbits to eat in moderation. Too much cucumber can make your rabbit sick. Cucumber is not very nutritious, and it can lead to diarrhea. Pay close attention to your rabbit, and if cucumber gives it diarrhea or gas or other health problems, do not give it any more. If your rabbit is fine with cucumber and likes it, you can feed it in small amounts as an occasional treat. The House Rabbit Society recommends no more than 2 tablespoons of treat food per day for a normal, healthy 6 pound rabbit. See the related question below for more details about a healthy rabbit diet.

How do you get cauliflower seeds from cauliflowers?

Best way is to start planting indoors first and later go outdoors. Once you start growing cauliflower indoors, keep them there until they reach a height of 6 inches and do not transplant them if there are chances of frost. The soil and air temperature should hover around 50 F or so. Start digging holes and plant them. Cover them ill the lower leaves. Put some soil around the plant to keep the moisture in. If you plan for a fall harvest, sow the seeds straight in the ground. Planting them in clusters is a nice idea. Space the clusters couple of feet away. When the leaves come up, you can start removing all but the strongest seedling in each cluster. This is an essential part of growing cauliflower.
