Vegetables amount

[JIn1234567]

My guinea pig eat around 100g vegetables + half of lettuce every day. It that too much?
They also eat a lot hay too. i am not sure if i give too much vegetable.

They are currently 1160g weight and they are just 6month only

 

[Piggies&buns]

Each piggy needs around 50g of vegetables per day. So if you are feeding them each 100g then it is too much. If that 100g is split between them both then it’s fine as they are not getting 50g. Certainly half a lettuce is far too much - they only need one small leaf of lettuce per pig per day. Lettuce is high water and too much can cause diarrhoea.

The guide below details further and also shows a sample plate of how much veg to feed in a day
