this really should be in the food section;)
guinea pigs can eat all parts including stalk and leaves,they tend to love the leaves more than any other parts,personally i cut the stalk off because i feel bad giving them off cutsrolleyes,only give it in small amounts though due to its high calcium content x
 
Oh yes my bradders loves broccoli in fact if its not in his dish then he doesnt touch the rest of his food until it is lol
 
Minx' favourite was the stem - unfortunately, she was allowed it only as a special treat because of her bladder stones.
 
thank you to whom ever moved this post....i didnt relise i posted it in the wrong section hehehehe i guess we all have days like this xx
 
Best not overfeed broccoli though - it can be a bit gassy. For pigs prone to gas/bloat, it is one to avoid.

My Mimsi has a bladder stone and I find that iron rich veggies such as broccoli and spinach cause blood in his urine. I avoid these now which is a shame as Mimsi adores broccoli. He get plenty of other veggies to make up for this.
