When should I start giving to Tete greens and vegetables?

It is 8 weeks old, and I have been reading I should't give greens or veggies until it is 4-6 months old.. Only hay and pellets till then. I, unfortunately, gave it some herbs and veggies. Therefore I have taken immediately all this stuff out...
So, when should I include this back on its diet?

I feel terrible for being feeding it all this :cry: (Although it has been just one day, as I got it yesterday)
 
hi, the advice i got from the forum on feeding my baby rabbit is as follows, 12-14 weeks introduce some green food,only a small amount a couple of times a week to start with to avoid stomach upset. at about 6 months you can introduce some veg, again in small quantity, one type at a time. hay needs make up the largest part of the diet so keep it constantly supplied. i got some dried herb mix and dried plantain for my 10 week old and sprinkle a little in the hay for variety. its Burgess country garden herbs and Burns dried plantain. I also feed a blend of 3 types of hay which is meadow hay, oxbow orchard grass and one with chamomile. I give him supreme science selective junior pellets. hope this helps :)
