  Hmmmm….I’ve never even thought about it. Most fruit is fine…The only thing I can think of that they can’t have is avacado…Apparently the other name for starfruit is Carambola-so I’m going to take a peek on the no-no lists.

  It’s not on any no-no list, and wikipedia says it’s chemically very similar to grapefruit-so I would assume it’s ok to give.

  Seems like an exotic and expensive fruit for a bunny :~) I’ve tried these before and they have an interesting texture but not so much flavor. They look beautiful when cut and used as a garnish for desert or salads.
  
  I imagine it would be just fine – since it’s not common you probably wouldn’t find it listed anywhere – it’s too gourmet I guess.

  I find them very sour. I am not good at picking out the nicely ripe ones that taste good.
