Louise,

our piggies and bunnies are spoilt! they get better fed than I do! lol
Although i do feed mine better than me!

I dont really have a daily list like yours, i buy veg in every other day as I only live in a flat and have a very small fridge. I grow my own herbs so they get these and i give them greens, carrots, lettuce, corn on the cob, cabbage, dandelion leaves, brocolli, cauliflower leaves, carrot tops, hmm i am sure there are more, but cant thinko f them right now!

mine are very fussy and dont like much! useless bunch!

they do like their gingko and herb mix though which i give them daily. i swap this with the mixes i got from pampered piggies which their adore!
 
Hehe I used the Cavycages.com charts obviously I can only buy what is in the shops. The key with my lot is smaller portions. I have a three who get bloated if they eat too much.

I make platters up and carry it out on a tray. My neighbours must think I am crazy! :(|)

I tried them with Radish last week and they loved it, although this should only be given once a month as it is high in oxalates.

I wannabe a Cavy nutritionist! mallethead lol

I think my list could be better but again it comes down to what is available! :)
 
My three have (in varying degrees depending on type of veg/fruit / nutritional levels etc)

Cabbage
Romain Lettuce
Greens
Tomatoe
Cellery
Red / green pepper (although not too keen on this)
Brocolie
Corn on the cob
Grass

Going to start introducing more - but as said before mine are also very fussy.
 
your list is amazing! i wish i coudl get such varieties in veg, where do you shop?!?

lol! i love the bit about the tray, next they will be served on silver platters! lol :)) they deserve it though for being such lovely companions!

i didnt know that about radishes - i have never tried it on them, i dont eat them myself so would be a waste if i bought this stuff and they didnt like it, and if i dont like it either - it doesnt get eaten!
 
I shop in either Asda or Tesco. Aldi is good for cheap veg but I have trouble getting the greens from there. Lidl, is ok but we don't have one in this area and have to travel a bit. :)
 
Mine have been chomping their way through brocolli, carrots, corn on the cob, mixed salad leaves (on offer from lidl), kos lettuce, savoy cabbage, apple, cucumber, melon, mini corns, Timothy Hay, Supa Exel, grass in the garden, a shoebox, the ramp in the hutch, the bedroom door in the hutch, a chair leg in the living room and my cat's fluffy mouse! I make up a little mixed salady/veggie dish for them early morning and again at tea time. xx
