  Does anyone know if the little boxed alfalfa and clover sprouts that one can buy in the produce sections of most grocery stores are alright to feed buns for snacks? I can imagine the alfalfa has to be given in moderation if so, but what about the clover?

  bean sprouts and alfalfa sprouts are OK as greens based on the medirabbit list. I have offered both to my buns, and they disapproved of them I am not sure about clover sprouts.

  I bought alfalfa sprouts once and Piccolino seemed to like them just fine.
  
  He doesn’ t like mint or rosemary or the curly parsely, but loves the italian parsley (maybe cuz his name is Italian and now he’s all snooty)

  Well I washed a few alfalfa sprouts this morning and offered them, but I think he pretty much gave them the thumbs down. We’ll see if Pippi likes them. (Not likely she’ll turn them away, she’ll eat anything!)
  Personally, I love them on french bread with cream cheese….YUM!

  I love sprouts too, but my rabbits do not so yours are not the only ones that do not care for them. I wonder why that is?
