Hi all I give my piggies veggies like kale lettuce cucumber and celery every day which they love and also apples and carrots which they are not so keen on but will eat a little of. I want to give them as much variety as I can so was wondering what treats everyone elses piggies enjoy? I'm also a bit concerned about their vitamin c intake i know you can buy piggy supplements but wondered if the veggies they are getting daily will be enough? I havent had my boys very long and just want to be doing my best for them. Thanks
 
Hi, are you also giving them unlimited hay and good quality pellets?
 
yes they always have hay, when I first got them I tried feeding them pellets but they would hardly eat any of them so they now get a guinea pig mixture which they do well with and I dont think they pick and choose what they like from it because there never seems to be the same things left in the bowl.

If only my fussy pigs would! our new girl Megan loves parsley and coriander but frowns upon other food :))

How many piggies do you have?
 
Just the two boys at the moment but I'm keen to adopt another pair when the opportunity arises. Its really saddens me to think how many guinea pigs are bought on a whim then not looked after properly when I have two that are spoiled rotten. I seemed to have developed a bit of an obsession with piggies and will definately be expanding our family with less fortunate piggies. We have a lot of piggy love to give :-)

:)) It does become an obsession! But it's a fun one. There are always lots of piggies in rescues looking for homes, it is sad.

Be great to see some pigtures of your boys. Hope you enjoy the forum.
 
My profile picture is of my boys chicco and charlie. I'm so happy to find a forum where I'm not the only crazy guinea pig lady haha x
 
Cilantro

All piggies should love cilantro! xD

" crazy guinea pig lady " <== oh yes, there are lots of us here =]
 
I just found out last night that my piggies love cilantro. They are also quite fond of italian parsley and carrots. Wow do they ever go through the hay!
