Do rabbits eat oranges?

Rabbits can eat oranges, but in moderation. Oranges are rich in vitamin C and other nutrients that are beneficial to your rabbit's health. However, oranges also contain high sugar and acidic substances, and excessive consumption can easily cause indigestion, diarrhea and other problems.

Therefore, when feeding oranges to rabbits, you need to pay attention to the following points:

1. An appropriate amount is appropriate: only feed a small amount of oranges to rabbits each time, preferably no more than 10% of their body weight. And do not feed oranges to rabbits frequently to avoid affecting their normal diet and digestive function.

2. Clean: Clean the oranges and remove the outer peel to avoid the ingestion of residual pesticides or other harmful substances, and to prevent rabbits from accidentally eating the cellulose in the peels and causing gastrointestinal discomfort.

3. Pair with other foods: Oranges cannot be used as the staple food of rabbits. It is best to feed them with other fresh fruits, vegetables or hay to ensure that the rabbit absorbs sufficient nutrients.

It should be noted that oranges are only a snack in the rabbit's diet and cannot replace the rabbit's normal diet. Also, before feeding your rabbit any new food, seek the advice of a veterinarian or professional to ensure its health and safety.
