Yes

Safety Summary

✔ Safe: Yes — as a treat

Hay should always remain the primary diet component. Remove the green leafy top — it's actually safe too and some rabbits enjoy it.

Portion Guidance

One or two small strawberries a few times per week. Not daily.

Risks & Symptoms

Regular feeding: obesity, digestive imbalance
Too much: soft cecotropes, diarrhea
