Can rabbits and chinchillas eat carob?
Yes, in small amounts. One or two teaspoons a week are enough, because the pods are naturally high in sugar.

Carob is a legume, not a baked good. It is taken readily as a treat and can be scattered over the daily ration or stuffed into hay rolls.

How much carob does a horse get?
As a guide, 25 to 100 g per day, depending on body weight.
