Answer by  case (1261)

Bunnies will eat most any type of vegetation including corn. However, corn does not provide the nutrients a bunny needs to maintain healthy life.

Bunnies should be given just a few kernals of corn. Corn is high in carbohydrates and is too "hot" for them to eat much of. Corn also has hulls and that can make it pretty hard for a bunny to digest. Even wild rabbits will eat very little corn. The corn should be given raw.

Bunnies will eat corn and some people feed it to their bunnies. However, the consensus is that it is not good for them. The hull of the corn kernel contains a substance that bunnies cannot digest (a complex polysaccharide). This could cause the digestive track to be blocked and the death of the bunny.

Not every bunny eats corn, but some will do. Just give a try. Especially dried corn will be accepted more likely

Yes it is more often that they eat raw corn than cooked but cooked is possible. From the cob or the kernels themselves would be fine as well.

Some do. Ground corn meal can be found as an ingredient in some commercially available pet food. Bunnies are herbivores and need a variety in thier diet to supply them with the essential vitamins and minerals.
