Rabbit Feeding Habits and Eating Behavior
Rabbits are single-stomach herbivores that prefer plants, pellets and a little vegetable oil or sweet feed, with animal feed kept under 5%.

Introduce any new feed, including animal protein during pregnancy or lactation, gradually.

Keep the home dry and airy, prevent coccidiosis, use a smooth cage floor, feed vegetables in moderation, give chew toys, control portions (rabbits have no fullness cue), and balance grain, greens, hay, and water.
