...veggie wise? I mean, people say a cupfull and stuff, but mainly we just seem to add salad then stop when we think it's enough. It's bell pepper every day so they have enough Vit C, but am I doing something badly wrong?
They're happy and healthy, and have been since we got them, so we must be doing something right...
 
As long as they are healthy and active and their weights are stable then you are probably doing it right.
I wouldn't overfeed lettuce as it doesn't contain much nutrition and can cause soft poos, but as long as they are having a variety of veg, and still get lots of hay then I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Hmm....I think I possibly am feeding a bit too much lettuce. But not hugely! They have a decent variety, and plenty of hay. Speaking of hay, I think we need more already...
