Dry vegetables?

[koolkathan]

Hi there

Can anyone please give me advise on what vegetables to give my guinea pig stan, after his mouth getting better the vet told me that I'm only allowed to give him Pepper. Either red or green.

But is there no other dry vegetable that doesn't contain a lot of moisture?

Even though he is loving it so much more now, I'm afraid he'll get bored as his brother ollie gets everything else.

Parsnips, but not too often, I don't actually know how often you can feed, but never done my pigs any harm. Also carrot, but not often at all, high in sugar apparently.

What about green beans and celery?
Now that his mouth is better is there a specific reason for avoiding 'wet' veggies?

Yes, because apparently he is more sustainable to reopening the sores around his mouth again and getting infected. So hes not allowed wet vegetables. In order to keep the mouth area dry and not reopen them sores.

How about herbs like coriander and dill? They are not wet and are nice delicate leaves that go straight in the mouth with no mess
