Depends on the size/breed of your rabbit, do more research on that and it will generally tell you how much to feed.
3/4 - 1 cup is generally for large rabbits ( 10lbs and up) so not sure what kind of rabbits you guys all have but most dont need that much unless you want to make them overweight..lol

Really depends on the size of the rabbit how much you feed.
The Dwarf rabbits require about half as much as the giants. Dwarfs get about 3-4 lbs. The general rule of thumb is this. If you get the rabbit as a baby, start out with about 3/4 cup a day and see how long until it is gone. You have to feed enough for the rabbit to grow properly but not to get obese. A rabbit that gets obese will continually eat. Also provide the rabbit with Timothy Hay. It is excellent for the vitamin content and for keeping the teeth from overgrowing.

It does depend on the size of the bunny... my rabbit is a medium sized mini-rex and I usually give her 1/4 cup of rabbit pellets in the morning. However, I also supplement her diet with hay, and in the evening she gets veggies. She doesn't usually eat the food or the veggies all at once; she'll eat some to satisfy her hunger, the nibble as the day (or night) wears on.
Be careful, though! Remember that loving your bunny doesn't mean feeding it all the time... you want it to be healthy, not obese!
Rabbits are the bomb! ;)

I used to raise them when I was a kid. Keep food in the bowl along with water all the time. They will eat what they want.

It is just like asking how much food does a human eat?.............. You just have to experiment around until you figure out how much it will eat in one day and go from there.
