Have you ever given your piggies plums ?
Did some shopping for my 'fruit' mad daughter last night and the plums were so plump and juicy so we gave each of the piggies a piece each.
A bit of sniffing first followed by a little nibble - then...gone rolleyes (the guinea pigs that is, not my daughter ;)) Checked on the net if they're safe to give first of course and apart from the high sugar as in all fruits, are deemed safe :) I do limit fruit for them so this was just a little tester :))
 
I have given mine plumb before but as with most fruit they wont really eat it. I think they are trying to watch their waistlines lol, i am fruit mad like your daughter, i have a tropical feast on a daily basis! Fresh pineapple, melon, grapes, plumbs, nectarines, banana's, so yummy! I do share with the pigges but they are not keen on fruit!
 
Ooh, will test that out on Misty. Being all white she does look funny when she has eaten strawberries etc!

:(|) Know exactly what you mean :(|) Our white piggies look like savages or something out of a horror film when they have watermelon or beetroot, little red sticky mouths and drooling rolleyes
 
I have given my plum's before, some of them like it and some of them dont xx
 
The only 2 fruits that Rod would eat were bananas and melon....he turned his nose up at everything else....Oh no wait he LOVED oranges!

Didnt give it to him regluarly as I was worried about the citric acid content, even though I know they are high in Vit C....but whenever I had one I would give him a segment and listen to him sucking the juice out of it...so cute :))
 
My mums just asked me to ask people on the forum whether guinea pigs can have plums so thanks to whoever posted this thread! (:
Are they okay to eat the skin aswell!?
 
Mine have had plums before and all 4 of them loved them.

Mine will eat pretty much everything except: Strawberries, tomatoes, banana, sprouts and courgettes.

Their favourites are melon, cucumber and spinach!
