Rabbits should eat a diet of mostly hay, with some fresh vegetables (mostly dark leafy greens) and high-quality commercial pellets daily, and fresh water.

Some sources (like the book mentioned in this question, probably) give incorrect advice about how to care for rabbits. Always be critical about books and website and the information they tell you. Mush and MASH and mulch feeds are not recommended for healthy rabbits: pellets and hay are much better because they wear down a rabbit's teeth (which are continually growing!) and they keep the digestive tract moving and healthy. Homemade feeds are not recommended because a lot fo science goes into rabbit pellets, and it's unlikely a homemade feed would include all the important vitamins and minerals and nutrients a rabbit needs.

You can get pellets from farm stores (like Runnings, or The Co-op). In the summer, you can pick grass for the rabbit, but be careful that no one has sprayed it with pesticides or chemicals, or that it's not covered in pollution or car exhaust, or that there's no parasite eggs on it, because these can kill your rabbit. Wash vegetables from the store really well!

How much and how often should you feed your 13 pound averaged sized pet rabbit?

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.
