Veg

[Herbs&Spice]

Hi everyone,
I am a bit concerned as i want to try my girls on Chinese leaves but i have a cute girl who suffer with bloat. Anyone given it to a guinea pig suffer with bloat before.

All pigs respond differently so it is difficult to say.
But if you have a girl who is sensitive then it might be better not to risk it.

Ever since Lucy suffered with sudden and severe bloat I have kept her diet very minimal. I feel bad sometimes, but I would feel worse if I felt I somehow caused her to suffer again like she did last time.

I agree, we have a "bloat survivor" piggy who only survived her first almost fatal bloat episode against all the odds and had recurrent acute bloat episodes for about 3 months after... I am still very cautious with her diet, she only gets new veg or a generous portion of veg for breakfast on days when I am home from work to watch her for the next 6 hours and only when the vet is open!

Hi ,
Thank you for your advice .I think i will give my other three girls it to try . may be while i am having cuddles with her and doing a health check. Good luck with your furry friends ,bloat is horrible. I gave mine a little amount of infacol worked but if it hadn't i would of been straight down the vets.
