         For my bunnies:

        What veggies and herbs are BEST for bunnies and what veggies should my bunnies be fed or can be fed daily?

        Also what other veggies and herbs are ok for bunnies to eat? How about carrots? Tomatoes? Celery? Broccoli? Snap peas? Are these safe for bunnies and how much should they be allowed? Small amounts, treats only, or can they be fed as a regular part of their diet? I know carrots are only ok in small amounts as treats or should they not be given carrots at all?

        And what veggies and herbs are dangerous or not ok for bunnies to have at all?

         

        I have also gotten a request on YouTube to do a video over healthy rabbits treats vs. store bought treats and what pet shop treats are marketed for bunnies but unhealthy? So I am looking for as much information over that as I can find. I want to make sure I don’t put out any bad info to new rabbit owners (my targeted audience).

            Here are two helpful links about diet and veggies.

            http://rabbit.org/faq-diet/
            http://rabbit.org/suggested-vegetables-and-fruits-for-a-rabbit-diet/

            Store bough treats that include dairy (yogurt), seeds, nuts, and other junk, should be avoided. 
            Oxbow makes a good line of treats
            Craisins and Raisins are fine
            Fresh fruit makes a lovely treat (freeze dried and dried can be great as long as there are no additives)
            Edible flowers

              Yes, I don’t know of any nuts that are considered safe. Where have you heard that nuts can be fed?

              Those are good links that MD gave you. You’ll find that the same info is all over the internet, at least on reputable sites.

                That’s why I was confused because I couldn’t find any list about nuts but I saw someone on youtube feeding their bun cashews. And I read that carrots were ok but then I read that they were to sugary and then saw someone on youtube feeding their bun like 5 giant carrots on a plate. :s

                    Carrots are fine in moderation – make sure you read the links from House Rabbit Society that MD linked to. The House Rabbit Society is the most up to date as far as this information.

                      Rabbits will eagerly eat nuts, but it’s not good for them. Nuts are to fatty and rich in protein.
