  I have two bunnies that I recently got form a local feed store. They told me they are 10 weeks. When should I start feeding them fruits and veggies?

  It’s usually recommended that you wait until a rabbit is 12 weeks old before you start with greens. Go slowly and introduce one new veggie every few days or once a week.
  
  Here are 2 good articles on feeding veggies and fruits:

  I agree with tobyluv.
  
  I made the mistake of being to excited and gave Momo a baby carrot when she was 8 weeks…next day she mushy pooped >.< …. learned my lesson and waited about a month. Now at 4 months I feed her carrots and apples! It's a forever learning experience.
  
  Congrats on your new bunny!!
