Have a look on here;

that is a list of loads of stuff that piggies can eat, my lots favourites are lettuce, cucumber, celery, beetroot and fennel but they get a variety of things (usually what is on offer in asda) Each one is different and you will soon find out who likes what.
ps watch out you dont feed too many high calory or calcium rich stuff.

I found out today actually that too much spinach is no good because of high calcium.

I already know mine are absolutely addicted to lettuce!

But seen as I was unaware of what happens after too much spinach I thought I would get other people's opinions

Laura did an excellent post that breaks foods down into feeding frequency it is a sticky thread and can be found at http://www.theguineapigforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=30297

It's about halfway down the post when it goes into deatil on what to feed daily etc.... Hope that helps

French beans are Green beans - these are fine, we chop them up small for one of our girls.
No idea on Runner Beans have never seen them listed anywhere so would avoid unless found out otherwise..
