Cos and little gem lettuce

[jane28]

are these ok to feed piggies within reason?

I'm not 100% sure (try goggling lettuce and Guinea pigs)?

I found this on another website:

"Ice-burg lettuce is not suposed to be fed to Guinea Pig's because it contains toxins, however dark leaved lettuce is a good source of vitamins."

Cos aka Romaine is good to feed piggies O0

It's only Iceburg lettuce which shouldn't be fed. all other lettuces are fine but none really have much nutritional value so should only be fed as a treat.

cos and romaine are ok to feed. Twice a week I feed them that.

 

[wales1000]

I fed mine romaine lettuce everyday is that not good?

Lettuce is like chocolate for us. But Romaine and Cos can be fed every other day.

Romaine, I think, has the most vit c content of all the types of lettuces so i think it is the best one to feed.

And in the summer it is so cheap!

I've grown my own from seed in pots on the balcony, so easy to grow!
