Grass

Can baby bunnies eat grass from my lawn? It hasn’t been sprayed with anything

The grass from your yard should be okay as long as its not sprayed with anything bad. although babies probably shouldnt have any until 6 months of age

What type of grass is best to grow for bunnies? Are most grasses okay or do I have to be careful which grass I grow? We have a fenced area that is all soil at this point. Thinking of growing some grass and then putting a pen out there so they can enjoy a moment outside (with supervision.) Any ideas on what type of grass works best? We are in a hot and very rainy climate, sub-tropics, so that is a factor too. I have to grow something that can work here.

I think that you should grow Bermuda grass. It is very good for rabbits, and easy to grow. That is what my dad grows in our yard.

thank you! I will look into doing that. Your bunny is adorable.

Yes, if you pick it or cut it with scissors. No mown grass. And introduce in small quantities as with all fresh food, gradually increase. Grass is very good for them!
