At the moment my piggies have a range of brocolli, carrots, apple, parsley, dill, celery leaves and cucumber. I am wanting to give them so new foods, but I dont know what else theyre allowed to eat!
I have 2 piggies and give them 2 full bowls of fresh fruit/veg every morning (the bowls are smaller then the circle around a typical mug) and then they have 1 bowl of gerty guinea pig dry food every night.
Is this right? I worry a lot about whether or not I am feeding them correctly and giving them a good diet. They don't eat all their dry food, i go in on a morning and there is still some left, they tip it out all over their cage!

Also I think Yorkie is having too much calcium as his urine is quite milky looking...

Any advice is much appreciated! My guinea pigs are about 16 months old.

Thank you.
 
some of the other things i feed mine are

Corn & the husks & silks
greeen beans
any lettuce except iceberg
Snow peas
Basil
Mint
peppers in any colour
Cauliflour leaves
Carrot tops
tomaton in small amounts
Canteloupe/rockmelon

banana
Cucumber
Lettuce (not iceburg)
Corn cob including the leaves
peppers
green beans / dwarf beans
mange tout
baby sweetcorn
cauliflower leaves (they don't like white bit)
swede
carrots (2-3 times a week)
Spring greens
curly kale
savoy cabbage

morrisons value stir fry (only contains carrot, brocolli and bean sprouts so ok for piggies)
