Can a Rabbit eat Zucchini?

Can a rabbit eat Zucchini?

Yes! A healthy rabbit can eat Zucchini, which can help them get more nutrients. However, there are a few things you need to know before serving Zucchini to your rabbit.

Rabbits can eat Zucchini but only in moderation.

You should always taste Zucchini first because this plant produces bitter-tasting toxins called cucurbitacins, which can cause vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, or even death. 

Don’t feed a bitter Zucchini to your rabbit.

Just remember to remove all seeds from the inside of the Zucchini before serving it to your pet rabbit. Otherwise, they could cause stomach pain. You can also give your bunny some shredded Zucchini leaves free of pesticides and chemicals, but make sure that they don’t have any bugs on them first!

Most rabbits don’t like the taste of Zucchini and prefer hay, grass, and other vegetables like peas over Zucchini.
