Rabbits are herbivores, and eating grass is their nature, so not eating grass is very harmful to rabbits. Eating grass has two essential points for rabbits: the first is that rabbits can supplement all kinds of nutrients they need by eating grass. The second is that rabbits have the habit of eating hair, especially in the case of unbalanced nutrition, which is more serious. Eating grass can help rabbits thoroughly hair.

Feeding techniques:
Rabbits are herbivores, and their food can be roughly divided into three categories:
concentrated feed
It mainly provides energy, protein, fat, minerals and amino acids. The vast majority of rabbit food belongs to complete food, that is, rabbit food is made up of all the nutrients needed by rabbits according to a certain proportion, which can theoretically meet the vast majority of nutrients needed by rabbits, but usually the nutritional loss is different due to different production processes. Generally speaking, the actual nutritional composition of rabbit food is different from the nominal value.
coarse fodder
Crude fiber is mainly provided for rabbits every day, followed by protein and amino acids. Forages of different families have different nutritional components and palatability. The palatability of leguminous forage is generally better than that of gramineous forage, and the palatability of fresh forage is generally better than that of green hay. In terms of nutritional value, young forage grass has high nutritional value and low crude fiber content, while mature forage grass has low nutritional value and high crude fiber content.
succulent fodder
Feeding hygiene. In these three kinds of food, under normal circumstances, rabbits like to eat juicy feed, such as cabbage, lettuce leaves, carrots, parsley and so on. Because this food is juicy and delicious, most rabbits are willing to accept this food. Mainly to provide rabbits with daily vitamins, water and so on.
