Blueberry leaves?

[squidpop]

Should I plant blueberry for leaves for my Netherland dwarfs to eat? Are leaves from a blueberry plant as good for rabbits as Blackberry? I know my rabbits love the blackberry leaves, but I don't want to plant more blackberry because I like eating blueberries so much.

I wouldn't feed blueberry leaves regularly. They are used medicinally for humans, but this source warns against exceeding recommended dosage or using for a prolonged period of time.

Strawberries might be a better choice. Their leaves are a safe rabbit food. Or plant the blueberries anyway, since you are fond of them, but don't use them as rabbit forage.

Thanks,
Strawberries are a good idea.
