Pet rabbits (including Dutch ones) should eat mostly hay, with some pellets and some fresh leafy greens. Optional treats can include fresh fruits, vegetables and other plants. This question is about pellets. See the related question below for details about a healthy diet for pet rabbits.
Pellet Portions for a BunnyHow much you feed your rabbit depends on its size. Dutch rabbits usually weigh between 4 and 5.5 pounds, but this is a pretty big range: you should weigh your rabbit at the vet to find out its exact weight. A general guideline for a Dutch rabbit is 2-4 tablespoons of pellets per day. (It's easier to go by tablespoons than ounces, because not everyone has a kitchen scale.)i have a 12.5 pound french lop eared rabbit. He eats about 1 1/3 cup of rabbit feed each night. And a little bit of parsley through the day. You can feed your rabbit a little over a cup every day at the same time, or feed him/her half in the morning and the remaining at night. BUT be sure to stay with the feeding routine. If you feed your rabbit all his/her food at the same time, remember what time you fed your rabbit and feed him/her that same time the next day.
I wouldn't recommend it. It is a foreign plant to rabbits. You should not feed it that sorry... Rabbits LOVE bananas though!
Pet rabbits should primarily be fed a diet of hay, fresh vegetables, and a small amount of pellets specifically formulated for rabbits. Treats should be given sparingly. Fresh water should always be available.
Wild baby rabbits can eat rabbit pellets, hay and carrots when they are two weeks old. Before that you should hand feed them.
Rabbits shouldn't eat straw as it lacks significant nutritional value and can't be digested efficiently. Providing hay as a dietary staple is much more beneficial due to its high fiber content and essential nutrients. Straw is better suited for bedding material in a rabbit's living space rather than being consumed as food.
Whatever you normally feed your rabbit is probably fine; Rabbit Chow, or whatever.

If your rabbit hates vegetables, try leafy greens. If she won't eat leafy greens, buy commercial rabbit pellets to feed her.
It's simple, just refill the food bowl once she has finished EVERTHING!!! Just give her a little extra for more nutrients.There is no specific time you should feed her.Does should be fed twice a day. They should be given their ration (check with the ARBA to see what ration is right for your breed.) 6 to 8 ounces for Rex and Satins. If your doe has eaten all of the pellets when you come to feed in the evening give her 6 ounces more. If not give her 3 or 4 ounces to make it thru to morning feeding.
You should feed the rabbit more hay and dried foods, and if this doesn't work visit the vets.
No, it's not a good idea to feed your rabbit watermelon. Rabbit.org has a list of things rabbits can eat and what you should feed your rabbit every day.
A lot of science goes into the formulation of dried pelleted rabbit feed. It is not recommended to make your own rabbit feed at home. In addition to high-quality pellets, rabbit should eat fresh leafy greens, and they should have unlimited access to hay and water. See the related question below for more details and helpful links.
