Short Answer
Yes
Safety Summary
- ✔ Safe: Yes — as an occasional treat
- ⚠ Use caution: High sugar

Why
Blueberries are safe for rabbits and provide antioxidants and vitamins. Most rabbits enjoy them. As with all fruit, the sugar content means they should be an occasional treat rather than a daily food. Hay must always remain the dietary foundation. A few blueberries a few times a week is a perfectly good treat.
Portion Guidance
3–5 blueberries a few times per week. Not daily.
Risks & Symptoms
- Daily feeding: digestive imbalance, obesity
- Too many at once: soft cecotropes, loose stools
- No toxicity
