This could spark some opinions off and it goes against alot of what i have learnt on here. But still interesting point of view from a succesful guinea pig rescue

 
Poor piggy sitting with all that food and not getting any to eat!
As far as diet goes I see two piggy savvy vets and feed the diet they recommend which is just about as opposite to what she says as you can get! There's very little she said that I agree with but she has an interesting point of view.
 
What i dont know is, are the pigs being re homed and then running into health issues that she doesnt get to hear about. Who knows. She might be right. I'm sticking to what i do though
 
I haven't finished the video because I'm watching the celebrity painting challenge thing but while I only agree with about 50% of the stuff she posts, I kind of agree with her on this. Some of mine sure look chunky, but when picked up in person they're solid muscle and the excess is skin, they're certainly not flabby. Plus the whole double chin thing...they're dewlaps. All my more dominant girls and boys have had them, Ebony is the same age as Ivory for example and fed exactly the same yet she is smaller, leaner and has no dewlaps because she isn't a dominant pig. I don't know, I don't think I would ever pit a piggy on a diet, I don't feed fruit more than once a month if that, root veg is pretty sparse, pellets are extremely minimal, I mainly feed hay, peppers, leafy greens and wild forage yet I've got some right porkers! I don't believe it's all diet related, rather just how they're built.
Unless they're being fed on only pellets and carrots ...I can't see how it's possible to make one fat on hay and the proper amount of veg :xd:
