I have a Rabbit diet question?

August 31, 2009

in Rabbit Diet and Nutrition

My new rabbit is 5 weeks old. I’m told to not give him iceberg lettuce but can I give him romaine or another kind?

I don’t know what to feed my guy except pellets and timothy grass.

Thanks,
Melissa

5 weeks old is way too young to leave the mother. Right now, he is too young to be fed any veggies. They will upset his stomach. Keep giving him pellets and hay, and at this age, alfalfa wouldn’t hurt. When he’s about 6 months old, you can slowly and gradually introduce him to veggies.
