They eat the same as any other rabbit: pellets as the main part of their diet with unlimited hay and greens/treats can be given occasionally. For show and brood rabbits, it is often necessary to feed limited amounts of pellet feed. This is to ensure that the dwarf does not become overweight. Pets dwarfs can be free-fed, but again, to have a healthier rabbit a healthy diet amount is recommended.

All pet rabbits eat the same diet, whether they're Netherland Dwarfs or any other breed. The only thing that changes is portion sizes!

Rabbits eat mostly hay, with some high-quality pellets daily, some fresh leafy greens daily, and water. Other foods, like fruit, or carrot, should be considered a treat. See the related question below to learn more about the rabbit diet and to see some great links.

One person wrote: They eat all sorts of things carrots , potato skin's buy not to much of that , and ask your local pet shop for advise

Another person wrote, in response: Carrots are quite sugary actually, they should be considered a treat only -- assuming your rabbit is healthy, a bite or two every couple days should be okay, but no more. Potato really is not recommended, and many parts of the potato are actually toxic for rabbits. Rabbits are not garbage disposals, do not feed them your trimmings (exception: carrot greens and radish greens -- in nice, bright green, fresh condition -- are LOVED by rabbits and very healthy, so these are the one case you give "garbage" to a rabbit).

You could eat a Dutch rabbit, but why? They would have a fairly high bone to meat ratio, and IMO wouldn't be worth the effort. Leave the Dutch breed to the show and pet people and try a good meat breed - The Californian.

They eat the same thing other domestic bunnies eat: lots and lots of hay, and some fresh greens and high-quality pellets. See the related link below for more information.
