You should give your rabbit unlimited access (24/7) to water and hay because rabbits need a lot of water and fibre to keep their guts moving. Replace the water daily and wash the dish to avoid bacteria build up (bowl or bottle).

Rabbits also need pellets and fresh dark-coloured leafy greens daily, but portion sizes depend on the rabbit's size and age.

The House Rabbit Society recommends for an adult 6 pound rabbit 1/4-1/2 cup pellets and 2 cups greens daily.

For young rabbits that are weaned, the House Rabbit Society recommends unlimited pellets, and no greens until 12 weeks of age (and then only in very small portions, a tablespoon or two). Between 7 months and 1 year, transition the rabbit to an adult's diet.

Fruit and veggies (aside from greens) should be limited as treats (e.g. carrot, berries, apple, squash). Too much can make the rabbit sick. Rabbits under 6 months shouldn't have any treats at all. Rabbits older than 6 months can have - for a 6 pound rabbit, no more than 2 tablespoons per day.

New foods should always be introduced one at a time, and in small portions. Wait about a week before introducing a new food or increasing the amounts. Watch your rabbit carefully for signs of ill-health and respond appropriately (with vet care or first aid).

Is carrots rabbits best food?

The very very best food for any bunny is Hay and Fresh Vegetables! In terms of pellets, the best combined pellet on the market is 'Supa Excel' (green bag) in the UK. Or Oxbow's Bunny Basics in the USA. The very best food for any bunny that is confined and unable to go out into the wild and get what it's system needs is a medium protein rabbit pellet. Too many fresh vegetables will give him diarrhea. Vegetables should be given as a treat only. Also do not put your bunny on full feed 24/7. This will cause obesity. Put your rabbit on a once or twice a day feeding schedule.

What should you not give your rabbit?

You don't give it metals or toys. It might swallow it!!! Don't feed your rabbit lettuce, old plants, cabbage, parsnips, tomato leaves, swedes, and potato tops. If you let your rabbit into the garden, make sure you don't have any of the food I mentioned growing in your garden.
