How much veggies should I feed 4 guinea pigs?

[Lib'sCavys2]

Hi! I’m going to be adopting 2 more male guinea pigs in a week or 2 since their current owners aren’t able to take care of them during Covid-19. So I offered to adopt them. I already have all the supplies ready for them, including their quarantine cage until I can take them to the vet to get them checked out before I bond my other 2 males!

I currently feed my 2 males: 4 pieces of cilantro, 1 romaine lettuce leaf, 2-ish inches of celery, 2 string green beans, a chunk of red bell pepper, and 3-4 cucumber slices! How much more of what should I add for my 2 new males that I’ll be adopting soon?

To be honest if you have a bonded pair and this pair are bonded I would keep them in separate cages. A pair of boars is the most stable but then multiple boars very rarely work unless you have a large number in a very large space. I know it doesn't answer what you came here for and probably isn't what you want to hear but the worst case scenario is that you could cause a fallout in two bonded pairs and end up with 4 single pigs.

Please don’t attempt to bond them with your other two males. Boars should be kept in pairs. Any more than two together more often than not results in fights.

Just double up what you currently feed your current two piggies. You aim for about a cup of veg per piggy
