bloat - food

[holly.DFM.]

Hi
One of my guinea pigs (Flake) has recently had bloat. Flake was the first of my three guinea pigs to get bloat and we are pretty certain it was the grass that caused it. she's already been treated but shes not entirely back to normal so I was wondering what vegetables would be safe to re-introduce to her.
Thanks in advance

Our guide will provide information on how to deal with this issue.
Don’t be tempted to rush back to veg and when you do introduce do it very slowly. Starting with herbs can often be the best as they tend to be milder on the tummy. Definitely don’t give cabbage or broccoli

ok thanks

does that mean dill would be ok to start with?

I’d actually start with coriander.
Dill is a good herb, good vit c, but if I remember correctly it is a little higher in calcium (parsley is higher still) so you wouldn’t want to be giving too much of it at all
