Hi Everyone

I'm :{confused:{ (no change there then)

I have been searching various threads to see if its ok to give Guinea Pigs Runner beans, most, including the sticky thread, mention green beans or string beans as being ok. But I have suddenly realised that I'm not sure if these are the same as runner beans?

There is also some discussion about whether the actual beans (inside the pod can be eaten)

So sorry for being so thick but are they the same? and if not can they eat runner beans with or with out the beans?

Apologies if this has been (no pun intended lol) asked before, which I think it was but I am not sure it was conclusive.

Thanks
 
I have fed them once before but then people seem to be so divided over any kind of bean.

If your not sure, leave it out. It's not worth the risk, I wouldn't bother feeding them.
 
I think the beans themselves are poisonous, the green bits are ok though. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
