        I saw a video on Instagram recently of someone feeding their rabbit a Black Eyed Susan/Rudbeckia hirta and I know people don’t always show the best care of their pets on Instagram so I was just wondering if that flower is safe for bunnies.

          I can’t readily find anything on this flower specifically, but here is a list of known toxic plants: https://wabbitwiki.com/wiki/Toxic_plants

          A cursory search suggests Black-eyed Susans are often destroyed by wild rabbits, so I imagine it is not highly toxic or they wouldn’t keep going to it.. but rabbits are not the brightest either.

            I could only find that Black Eyed Susan’s are mildly toxic in some instances, which sounds a bit odd. So I’d not feed it to my bun, but it doesnt seem really bad.
