Cauliflower

[Alicia]

I was looking on the internet last night because I want to give my guinea-pigs more of a variety of vegetables so I was looking to see what I can and can't give them, and I read on a website that you shouldn't give guinea-pigs cauliflower? I didn't know this and every now and then my guinea-pigs get the leaves from the cauliflower when my Mum makes a roast dinner. Is this website right? I'll stop giving them cauliflower until I'm sure, but my guinea-pigs didn't get it much before anyway so I doubt it's made them ill, but I just want to check if this information is right?

I thought that guinea pigs were allowed cauliflower rolleyes It is on the guinea pig shopping list

think its one of those foods they can have every so often but can cause gassy problems if they have it too much

You can give cauliflower leaves without problems, but some places do not recommend feeding the florets on a regular basis.

Ok thank you, mine only get the leaves anyway and not very often so I don't think it's a problem but thank you for telling me.
