Food and diet

[MariaClover]

Hello all,

I'm in need of some advice, I have been wracking my brains on our piggies diet! There is so much conflicting advice out there it's hard to know if I'm doing the right thing. I've attached a picture below of the plate they will have scattered in their environment today (I've taken the carrots out BC they are super high in sugar and feel like a treat (I've owned rabbit in the past)) I've also included a notebook I am keeping for their food and the list I've compiled (with lots of help from guinea pig people on websites) I'm just wondering if it looks okay?

Thank you in advance

Mine get the four safe daily veg of coriander, lettuce, cucumber and bell pepper - that’s it as routine.
They may get something else added if I’ve got it in the fridge - a piece of broccoli, slither of spring greens, a different herb - but there is no routine to it, it is literally if I’ve got it.

In your third pic - as you’re giving carrot on Tuesday I personally would not give strawberries on Saturday. I would stick to one sweet item per week only (I actually don’t give fruit or carrot routinely because I’m mean! - they will get a slice of apple once in summer and some carrot peelings when I’m prepping Christmas dinner. For my piggies a treat is their pellets which they only get twice a week or a different type of herb).
