veg

[Amylove]

Sorry if this has already been asked but I'm not sure on the portion size of veg i should be giving my piggies. as i dont want to be giving them to much or to little.
Also how many times should i be feeding them there pellets? At the moment iv been giving twice a day once in the morning and once at night.
They do love there food

I have just copied and pasted this from another thread, hope it helps!

- Unlimited good quality hay around the clock
- A small amount of commercial diet (pellets) this should be unlimited for growing piggies
- Half a cup of mixed veg (and fruit) a day (around 50g)


This isnt too much, guinea pigs are like eating machines. Go easy on the Kale, it is high in calcium, so feed this sparingly. Other veg is fine, just introduce new kinds slowly. Steer clear of too much spinch and kale though, but still can be fed in moderation.

Thank you i wasnt sure if i was giving the right amount
Seems i was getting the veg and fruit right
I might sound stupid but is twice a day with pellets enough or not enough? Or should i be giving more everytime they run out as they are growing sorry if i sound like a complete idiot.

They have to have access to nuggets al the time when there growing and when there older they have just a small amount? Am i right?
