As you can see nectarines contain a little phosphorus, are quite acidic and contain quite a bit of sugar.
This means that rabbits can eat a little nectarine but not a lot due to its high acidity.
They can eat a small amount but not a lot. Twice or three times a month in small amounts should suffice.
