Dwarf rabbits — what not to feed.

Any rabbit owner should know: what not to feed dwarf rabbits. Responsible owners prepare in advance for the arrival of a new family member and study the information even before the rabbit appears at home, but unfortunately not all information on the Internet is reliable. Often people who have little experience with a rabbit already advise others on what and how to feed, which often leads to disastrous consequences.

In dwarf rabbits, the weakest point is the gastrointestinal tract (gastrointestinal tract). Therefore, 90% of the death of rabbits comes precisely from problems with the gastrointestinal tract caused by improper feeding. When buying a rabbit from a breeder, the breeder must explain or give you a reminder about proper feeding and transfer to a new food. But unfortunately, among the breeders there are not very conscientious people or people who still have insufficient experience.

Dwarf rabbits, what not to feed:

Expired rabbit feed (always check the expiration date)
compound feed that has been poorly stored or damp
any meat products
dairy products
spicy, salty, fatty, fried
any bakery products
citrus
sweet and chocolate
fruits with stones (cherry, peach, plum, etc.) are not the fruits themselves nor the branches from these trees
houseplants
flowers from shops (roses, carnations and all the rest)
parsley and dill (you can only occasionally and in small quantities)
garlic, onion, hot pepper, horseradish
wet vegetables, fruits or grass (should be wiped off or allowed to dry)
cereals, soups and in general any food from the table
If you didn’t find something on this list and doubt whether you can give it or not, it’s better not to risk the health of the rabbit once again. Remember that you are responsible for the health and life of your pet.
