Different Or Same Veggies Each Day

[Pets Palace TV]

I am trying to give my guinea pigs a balanced diet, is it better to give your guinea pigs the same vegetables each day or to give them a variety of different vegetables each day? Thanks!

They need a variety to get a balanced diet. This thread will show you suitable ones,

Every day I give my piggies parsley, cucumber, pepper, coriander, celery. Every other day I give the same and romaine lettuce and the opposite day to that I give other veggies like carrots, parsnip etc and every third day they will have a small amount of fruit whether that be apple or tomato or melon etc. So yes I do mix up the veggies on top of their daily staple.

P.s mine is based on that list too

i give mine what ever i have left in the frigde or garden. they get whats in season. this should make sure that they are pretty healthy, and the watery thing like melons are ready during summer,which is bloody hot here. i go through and see what i can find at the supermarket mostly. cause we have very little money, so we grow most of our veggies. so the piggys get the good veggies and the rest go to the chickens
