At 10 days old they should only be having milk. Check out this page for more info on feeding baby rabbits Feeding Baby Rabbits: Baby rabbit food and care, for orphan bunnies

Here they start wandering out of the nestbox and eating pellet along with mum somewhere around 3 weeks old. I usually take the nestbox out at 4 weeks (when they are big enough to jump on top and doe has no hiding place from the kits anymore), although we have a cold snap now and nest is 3 so might leave it in a while longer.

you can start scattering hay in the box now. They will mostly just live on momma's milk, but they start nibbling on hay quite soon.

Put some of whatever mum eats where they can reach it. They'll start nibbling on it and ease the load on mom feeding them.
