So I have some sort of weed popping up all over the garden. I have no idea what it is or if it is safe for the herd. If someone knows what this is and if it is safe please let me know.
Can anyone identify this

No idea sorry. Hopefully someone may know
If in doubt leave it out

It looks like Oxalis Stricta (Yellow Wood Sorrel).
It is super invasive and fast growing, and spreads with 'exploding' seed pods - fun to play with but a disaster for your lawn.
It is actually a food plant, but not sure if piggies can eat it - it tastes pretty sour, so they may not like it anyway.

Thanks for all the help it sure looks like oxalis. Guinea pigs can eat it but not to often so I guess I will have to find places where this stuff is not to thick.
