Bunnies love, radicchio, endive, dutch carrot tops (occasionally), silver beet, spinach (occasionally), basil, parsley, collard greens, mint, mustard greens, , cilantro, mint, strawberry leaves, raspberry leaves, wheat grass, and dandelion leaves and flowers.
They need a good mixture of those veggies fed in relation to their weight. About 1.5 cups of vegetables per kilogram of body weight each day. Only a small amount of pellets, about three tablespoons. Ignore anyone who says rabbits need tonnes of pellets : my vet says no to pellets. They will make your rabbit fat and sick if you give too much. And they need unlimited timothy or oaten hay.
Also grass gives them gas, and rabbits can't fart or burp, so too much grass is a bad thing. Domestic rabbits are nothing like wild rabbits, as they've evolved differently. And rabbits do need to be protected from poisonous things as they do not know whether something is poisonous or not. They test their environment with their teeth. And of course, always have lots of clean fresh water for your bunny. And no iceberg lettuce! It gives them diarrhea.
As treats small amounts of fruits like strawberries, apples (but not the seeds, which are poisonous), Pears, cherries, blueberries, grapes and bananas. Definitely not too much, because sugar is bad for rabbits and can make them really sick. Fruit and pellets are junk food for bunnies.
NEVER give rabbits chocolate!

There are so many foods that rabbits can't have that it's better to ask the opposite (what they CAN have) and go from there.
See the related questions/links below for more information.
An INCOMPLETE list of some things rabbits shouldn't have includes:
They will eat anything they can get their teeth on, but feeding beans to a rabbit is unhealthy and I very much recommend you don't give beans to a rabbit.
Lettuce!! NEVER EVER feed a rabbit lettuce
No, never give your rabbit anything salted.
It's okay to give them a few kernels of it, but not to much
A small amount is okay for the rabbit, but it shouldn't be a treat or on their diet. I'd assume you to only give about an inch or smaller. Not very big. If you decide to give a rabbit a large amount and it decides to eat all of it, it can harm the rabbit. It usually doesn't digest bread.
a rabbit will eat anything but plastic
you can give the rabbit a bunch of grass or leaves,because rabbits are also forest animals
usually not... but a mother rabbit would eat her baby if it died
No, Rabbit's are herbivore's.
Pellets give the rabbit fiber and nutrients. You need to give your baby rabbits pellets. It is needed in adults but not needed as much. Vegetables are also important but try not to give your rabbit too much veggies. Make sure to give them plenty of hay.
Yes, rabbits eat. They have to if they wish to live. yeah! everything has to eat! they'll eat almost any type of vegetables but too much of something is dangerous for it, so go get it some rabbit feed, give the rabbit veggies as a treat or just a carrot or 2 a day
Depends on the mother--give her a quiet place as soon as possible. Any breed of rabbit will though. Usually happens with first time moms.
