...have not changed they're not in a draft I have not changed the brand of hay or the brand of kibble I did not introduce any different vegetables that might have started this. I could really use some suggestions on what I could try I haven't already done. THANK YOU in advance for suggestions. Carol

...I dont want too big change). I was studying various types of vegetable and almost everything was as from time to time and were few safe vegetables that can be given daily. So what they naturally eat? What should be the core of their food? It seems vegetable is something they like or tolerate...

...is definitely a red flag if you notice it. I use water bottle for my piggies or from the water filter. You should be giving 1 cup of fresh vegetables per guinea pig each day. I stay away from fruits and only give them as an occasional snack because of the amount of sugar. Too many vegetables...

My friend remembers the heatwaves in Scotland in the 1980s but this was before my time. I definitely don’t remember it being this hot in the summer here growing up in the 90s/early noughties. I think your memories are distorted with time (shifting baseline syndrome) but it’s sad we’re dealing...

Glad to hear you made an appointment with your vet! Eating their favorite food is good! Each guinea pig is so different! Hope things will be okay. Just one thing, guinea pigs can crash on you suddenly. Good luck!

...need to be supplemented with vitamin c. They need to eat hay (dried grass) in h limited amounts. They need to have a variety of fresh vegetables and a tablespoon of plain guinea pig pellets. Their vitamin c comes from the vegetables and pellets (provided they are fortified). A blockage...

...eating OUR food. Not only that but she was calling it rabbit food. The human also ate her portion of OUR food before we were allowed our vegetables. We have tried to approach the problem with multiple bar biting sessions, which unfortunately has resulted in us being told “It’s not your tea...

...with him for 2 sets of 10 minutes so that he could be with him and recognise. Although Alvin seemed much more interested in getting his vegetables. We stayed with Theo laying in a cuddle blanket stroking him gently and saying our goodbyes for about an hour I couldn't bare to do anything...

2x5 is the recommended cage size (not 2x6 as a minimum) but bigger is always better We don’t recommend the use of food bowls at all for either veg or pellets

They are adorable little animals with big personalities. Compared to cats and dogs, nature designed them to have a fast turn over to prevent rodents from potentially over populating an area and destroying all the vegetation. In captivity piggies can live for quite a long life compared to their...

My guinea pig is 4 1/2, Male. Since he was little he has always had a sensitive stomach and so throughout the years what (at least I thought) kept him at his healthiest digestive wise was feeding him a slice of green bell pepper everyday and romaine lettuce. Is this bad? Have I been...

You can add the video, but I cannot tell you what is going on. She needs a hands on vet check

...pig pellets. SHe can have one tablespoon (ie this is a specific measure) of these once per day. SHe must not have many at all. For vegetables she can have lettuce, bell pepper, cucumber and coriander. In total she can have one cup worth of a mix of these vegetables per day. So it is one...

...I was also struck by the difference between German and UK recommendations. Some people have very strong beliefs about the amount of vegetables, but there isn't actually that much systematic evidence behind it either way. Guinea pigs do need unlimited hay and some vegetables, but beyond that...

Thank you very much,

I'm trying to vary my guinea pigs' diet, but I would like to know if these two vegetables can be fed daily: Escarole leaves and Lollo rosso/Lollo Lettuce. They are currently eating: Green bell pepper daily at morning. Red or yellow bell pepper daily at night. Chayote/choko (squash edible for...

Thank you. ❤️ Yes they have a good home here with me. That’s what matters to them isn’t it?

...digestive systems That means that a new baby piggy from a pet shop will not be used to grass (they won’t even be used to a variety of vegetables so the same gradual introduction to veg applies) be able to have access to grass all day if you use the run as a bonding pen outside. It will take...

...whether I should continue. For context they have stopped eating bell peppers completely and so from what I have computed from their daily vegetables they are only getting 10mg of vitamin c for both of them from their vegetables. then I am only giving 1Tbsp of their pellet (10g in total =...

...I should give and how. Do you perhaps have a link? On the vet's recommendation, I ordered some homeopathic bladder syrup. I don't know if it's translatable. This would also be helpful as support. Blaassiroop Is there anything else I should be aware of regarding vegetables? Or any other ideas?
