can guinea pigs eat popcorn?

[Tallulah]

Just wondered, have s
ome ready to pop for my hamster...

I have seen it sold in pet shops for piggies, a wee bit now and then as a treat would be fine.

I've never tried popcorn with my boys, they're fuss wee things and prefer their veggies (oddly) to pet shop snacks, I'd say it's fine in modiration

 

[MrsM]

usually, if it's cooked, it's a no-no

 

[daleksarah]

i wouldnt give them it they would prefer a nice bit of cucumber or lettuce more

 

[KingBoris&HisFollowers]

i certainly wouldnt give anything outside of whats recommended, apple tree branches are a great treat you just have to make sure they arent sprayed xx

I heard this too, but aren't most kinds of guinea pig food in shops cooked, and oats and stuff?

Oh yes - our two love it as a treat. In P@H, there's even piggy popcorn for the microwave. It's on a cob so the whole cob turns into popcorn

Just what I was going to say my old piggy loved it as a treat

Just made a huge bowl of popcorn (plain) and I am going to see what the piggies think of it!

I got my boys some popcorn from pets at home they were terrified of it they kept running away from it. David was hysterical x

I also tried my guinea pigs with the pets at home popcorn and they wasnt impressed! They looked at me as if to say ' what have you put in my cage you mad woman' haha
