Watermelon - yes, but thin slices only without seeds and only as an occasional treat Carrots - yes, but they are high in calcium and should only be given sparingly Lettuce - yes, but only romaine or dark leaf (no iceberg lettuce and no cabbage) Apples - yes, but remove the seeds and only small amounts as a treat due to the sugar content Bananas - yes occasionally in very small amounts, rabbits do not need all the carbs

Watermelon and lettuce may cause loose droppings. Carrots, apples (no seeds) and bananas should be given sparingly as treats. A majority of the diet should be timothy hay or similar grasses. Sandy can eat as much of these as she wants. Commercial pellets can be fed but should be limited to no more than 1/8 cup per day.
