Stupid question but

[kezza30]

what size bowl does everyone use for there guinea pigs veggies. I feed Petal and jessie a mix of veg eery day at 5pm in a rabbit sized bowl from wilkonsons but didn't know if it was big enough to use with 3 piggies to get the right amount of veg.

So what size bowl should i use for 3 piggies 1 rbbit size bowl or 2 rabbit bowls, 1 on each floor of there hutch?

Sorry for sounding like an idiot, lol

Thats not a stupid question! I have the same bowls as you and 2 piggies share an over flowing bowl of veggies every evening. I think if it gets eaten really quickly, you could just top it up again and keep an eye they are all getting their fair share O0

Lol thanks i felt a bit daft asking that ;D

They both get there fair share and there's no fights over the bowl. They both stand on one side each and eat, but i was thinking hen i get another piggie maybe just one bowl might be a tight sqeeze and if they can't all get to the veg at the smae time theres going to be some fighting.

So i was thinking puttin some of eac fruit and veg in 2 rabbit bowls so if one can't get in theres another bowl so minimizing the need to fight over it and since 2bowls will take up to much room addinf a 3rd for normal food i gues i can just put the bowl in at there tea time and take it out before covering them up for the night, so they can have the space the bowls take up

No one sounds like an idiot on here! That's why we're all here! We may no more about one thing than someone else, but another person is sure to know WAY more about something than we do!

My piggies don't have food in a bowl..I just scatter it around the cage.

I have 2 ceramic bowls one for piggy mix and the other for veggies in each of the 3 cages. I load up the bowls to over flowing and they eat every last bit they do take up quite a lot of room tho.
