        I would like to start feeding my rabbit fruits, greens and veggies, but I just don’t know what to give her. I was wondering if someone could almost give me a menu of what to give her daily, and how much? I read around but no where I’ve looked has really given me a specific amount on to how much to give her. 

        Suggestions on what to feed her, some things that she might love, anything really!

          What is your buns approx size and weight ?
          Ideally a good diet is 80% hay, 12% fresh leafy greens and about 8%pellets
          Mine get a good full kitty litter tray of oaten/barley hay every morning and night as well as meadow hay.
          I give them a small cat food bowl each of salad. Usually atleast 3 varieties. This could be of bok choy, parsley, nasturtiums, coriander (cilantro), rocket (arugula), celery tops, fresh basil, spearmint, fresh fennel tops etc.

              You should find all the info you need regarding healthy foods to offer, amounts, etc here:

              House Rabbit Society is the “holy grail” of rabbit nutrition:

              Binky Bunny’s Diet Section is handy and a quicker read:

                Foo is 4.5 pounds and gets between 1 1/2 to 2 cups of veggies throughout the day. She normally gets a mix of kale, parsley, and cilantro, with raddichio, broccoli, dandelion, and dill thrown in. Ditto to what the others said about the House Rabbit Society and the info here, though for more thorough feeding information.

                  The links LPT provided will be really helpful.

                  How old and big is you bun? That will also help people recommend amounts to you.

                      She’s 3 months, and I’m not too sure how much she weighs. (less than a half gallon of milk! lol)
