Feeding Morio(superworms) To A Guinea Pig

[agpigowner]

Hi i was wondering if people thought it would be ok to feed a guinea pig a morio worm?
I buy them for my leopard gecko and I recently found out gerbils love the occassional one too (and they do!). Just wanted to check if there could be any risks with a guinea pig before I try it.

no, you definitely can't

NO.

 

[gizzy]

O no, defanatly not

 

[Shades]

My gut feeling is best not to.

No guinea pigs are vegan and so should have no animal products.

No to all animal products as mentioned, and I'll add no to human food, processed food, 'treats' with added sugar and food high in grains and starch.
Guinea pigs evolved to eat grasses and some plants. Other food types can upset their stomachs.
Most rodents are omnivorous and enjoy the occasional meal-worm, but guinea pigs eat a plant-only diet.

No, they are strictly herbivores, not build to digest anything else.

I'm certain that they should not be fed to guinea pigs....

I dont think a pig would know what to do with one if it were put under its nose
Defo no to worms
