    White powdery wee

    Hi Calcium pees can be a sign of too much or too little calcium in the diet; it is the normal way of the body to excrete any excess/or imbalanced calcium. Personally, I would not feed lettuce to guinea pig with bloat issues. Cos and Romaine are the same lettuce variety; in case you were...

    Sprouts for pigs

    I'm attempting to grow more food for my pigs (currently trying to get Carrot, celery, lettuce and fennel to grow. I'm also going to grow wheatgrass for them).

    ...under my arms therefore rubbing off any little ointment I have managed to apply. Any advice in keeping her calm?

    What plants can I grow?

    Currently I'm growing some wheatgrass and alfalfa sprouts at my window. Both are pretty quick and forgiving, and it can be fed to most other rodents if you have any :) Might be nice to have a little pot on a windowsill of something :)
