How much should a 2 pounds 13 week mini rex bun eat in fruits and vegetables a day ? Getting mixed info
 
Well I would feed only lettuce for a while to see if your bun is fine and doesn't have any complications with new food . If your rabbit is fine slowly add fruits and mixed veggies. Your rabbit should only be fed limited amounts of both. Once your rabbit is older and bigger then you can so bigger amounts of mixed veggies.

the reason you are getting mixed information is because there are 1000's of ways of feeding rabbits in a healthy manner.

You need to remember your rabbit is a HERBIVORE. Think rabbit when you feed a rabbit (as opposed to thinking People)

That means you concentrate on green food: grasses, dandelions, carrot tops, various herbs (not all),
You give sparingly things like apples and fruits. NO NUT FRUITS!
You "woody" materials like raspberry canes, apple branches, etc.

How much you give depends on your feeding regime and your rabbits tolerances.

If you feed predominately green food then you'll feed more. If you feed a pellet based diet you'll feed less.
