So I have 3 baby sows, 2 of them around 2 months the other about 1 month. Lately 1 of my guinea pigs (cocoa) seems to be getting on the chubby side since I've gotten her and her sister (meatball) who has also gained a little weight. Though the 3rd (Daisy) is still pretty small. I'm not sure about obesity rates in guinea pigs but I've started reading how theyre only supposed to eat twice a day. And because they're babies I figured they were supposed to have food available at all times, so I fill their bowls up daily and it lasts them the whole day. But now I'm concerned that this isn't healthy?
 
Hi, fresh hay and water should always be available, pellets need portion control as do fresh veggies, there detailed threads pinned in the food section

Hi, and yes they always have water and gay. Though I haven't included veggies as I was told babies couldn't have anything else but could you possibly send the link for that section, i was scrolling through and couldn't find what i was looking for
