- •Make sure you wash your vegetables well before you give to your guinea pigs.
•Please remember that any new foods should be introduced gradually to allow your guinea pigs’ digestive system to adjust, so they don’t get sick.

Thank you so much! I give my two piggies 2-3 leafs of lettuce in the morning and afternoon depending on how big the leaves are, recently I’ve been mix in other veggies as well.
Question: Are Kiwi and Apple okay for Guinea pigs? I’ve gotten mixed signals for Kiwi and apples are okay without the seeds but shouldn’t be given often due to high sugar but I was just double checking.
Wow
Styron Rhanz thank you! 😊😘💖

Thanks so much my furry potatos are coming soon so i have to do my research before they come
One question tho can we feed the guineas red/green leaf lettuce on daily basis if we skip the lettuce
Hey.. my Guinea pigs do not eat veggies... They only eat cucumber or cabbage..I have tried giving them red/yellow/green bell peppers, they denied... Tried zucchini, no... Tried pumpkin,it was a no...tried baby corns, carrots...it's all a no for them...They only eat hay, cucumber and cabbage... Please suggest how I should I make them eat..
Thanks
Mamta Rani He is probably just a fussy eater and you can’t force feed him. Hay needs to be the largest part of the diet, so hopefully he is eating plenty of hay and you give extra vitamin C (in pellets or liquid form). I personally wouldn’t worry too much as long as he is eating plenty of hay and is not loosing weight. What about fresh grass, herbs and dandelion leaves, most piggies can’t resist them? Hope this will help! 💖
@@PetiteCavy fresh grass ..
Timothy hay is the only thing they love...they keep eating that...they love cucumber as well..
Thanks for replying 😊
Thanks so much my furry potatos are coming soon so i have to do my research before they come
One question tho can we feed the guineas red/green leaf lettuce on daily basis if we skip the lettuce ?
Hello!
I have two 6 year old female Guinea pigs with bladder stone. The vet told me to give them bell peppers and cucumbers. They both will not eat bell peppers and one will only eat cucumbers. I give them both organic romaine lettuce they both eat that. They do have bladder sludge so I am always worried about giving them things with too much calcium. I give them each an oxbow vitamin c tablet a day and they eat the oxbow adult Guinea pig food 1/8 cup each a day even less sometimes depending on how much they eat. And they get Timothy Hay. Any advice you have would help thank you so much!
How do I know how much to feed them ? My guinea pigs are like 4-6 months old I believe. I just got them and I’m stressing 😢
Magalt Arce good evening! Hope this video will help! 💖☺️ ua-cam.com/video/DOF-2Qhv9C4/v-deo.html
Thank you so much for a very informative video😁
Should I feed my piggies only organic greens and veggies or conventional just as fine?
I also have read that parsley can be given every day so as small amount of kale
It’s very confusing
lena jazuk organics are the best! 👍🏼 Make sure you wash your vegetables well before you give to your guinea pigs especially the non-organic ones. I recommend kale and parsley in moderation. 💖

Quick question ive been trying to see if its ok to feed my babies decorative/flowering cabbage/kale. I want to grow these outside and would love to just buy them already grown but im not so sure thats ok for them to eat. Help? Thank you!
Mireya Dominguez hi there! Although they're categorized as the same species of the ones in our grocery stores, the ornamental versions have been bred for looks, not flavor. In my opinion, you can try to feed your fur babies in moderation. 💖
Do you feed your guniea pigs pellets in the morning too or just veggies? My last guniea pig had to be fed pellets every morning. Also sorry for this second question but, if they dont dont eat alm the vegetables do you just take them out? And one more ( so sorry) what if they eat the other guniea pigs veggies would that be them eating too much?
So are all these good
Hi there! I was wondering if cilantro is actually safe to give everyday? I saw a few websites saying it should only be a treat.
Derpy Doodler you can feed cilantro on a regular basis in small amount mixed with other vegetables 👍🏼 here is a link for more information about cilantro! ☺️💖 www.guineapigtube.com/can-guinea-pigs-eat-cilantro/
@@PetiteCavy Thank you so much! Just subscribed :)
Derpy Doodler tysm!! 💖💖
How many times a day should I feed my piggies? And should I still put some pellets in with the veggies? What’s the best thing to put their water in?
twice a day, morning and night about 7pm this time good for piggies
Are there any alternatives to feeding bell peppers
Can you help? I have been feeding my piggy kale every day, but she seems fine
So I have another question , I’ve seen a lot of videos and some people say that it’s not good to feed guinea pigs cilantro everyday someone please help and tell me what’s right to feed my guinea pigs everyday :( I give them green leaf lettuce or romaine , green bell pepper & cilantro or parsley
Magaly Arce cilantro (with regular amount) can be given on a regular basis, not parsley 💖
Can they are allow to eat malunggay/morina?
My guinea pigs won’t eat any vegetables what can I do to help that
Mam my Guinea was wound and its not eating should i juice Carrot and feed it
My guinea pigs does not like bell peppers what can i give them instead?
When you say they can be Given regular how often is regular
Jessie Playz everyday 💖
Coucou nouvelle abonne merci de faire un tour sur ma p'tite communauté 😊 gros bisous ❤
Hello im from india and timothy hay is quite expensive and not available easily here can we just give them greens and veggies everyday ?
No, Hay is 80% of their diet it helps keep their digestive system healthy and their teeth healthy the fibre in hay is essential to keep a guinea pigs digestive system working. Without hay they may get serious health issues which may lead to death. Some cheaper options may be orchard hay, and meadow hay but Timothy is the best. If you can't get hay I suggest not adopting a Guinea pig if you have any questions feel free to ask!❤️✨🌸🦋☺️
no matter how much fruit and vegetables you give them, nothing can replace hay
Grass maybe
Buy grass
my guinea pigs eat only coriander leaves is it okay? if they it too much coriander?
kaif shaikh yes it is okay! 🤗 all guinea pigs have their preference, my older ones love the leaves and the stems but my little one only eat the leaves too! 😆💖 it’s okay with the coriander, it’s a safe green.
@@PetiteCavy hey can i get a reply on Instagram i want some advice
@@kaifshaikh7486 sure!
Do you feed regular basis of food daily for guinea pig we should feed that only
Hi! 😃 On a daily basis, a guinea pig should receive approximately 100g of fresh vegetables per 1 kg of the guinea pig's weight.
Here’s a video about the guinea pig diet 💖 ua-cam.com/video/Tb0BijNfUyc/v-deo.html
HELLO!
I KNOW GUINEA PIG MUST NOT EAT POTATO
BUT MY GUINEA PIG ATE IT. MY MOM BOUGHT VEGETABLES AND KEPT ON FLOOR AND MY GUINEA PIG WAS ROMING AROUND AND ATE 1 BITE OF IT..
WHAT SHOULD I DO..
Did it survive
@@lucyrobson5163 yes he is healthy and perfect

Maduta Maduta 3-4 times a week
Thank you

Hi, can you because unwanted? By his old family that I to Kingdom and I didn't know what I feeling that I just got the thing from the shops. The pet food that rock card and dry but the vegetables he weight barefoot. Animals cause dry food can cut your throats. And thereid1878 s me and my mum just learned what to do. She told me ask me if I took him out today. I said no. And thatid1878 S why I took him a second and my mum said to feed him. Some vegetables I searched up. This and you only had the most useful videos.Those the videos were just talking about guinea pigs , not
i just got two guinea pigs anyone knw where i can get some good quality hay for them?
Oxbow Western Timothy Hay is a great option for their daily hay. If the guinea pigs are babies you’ll need alfalfa hay. Orchard grass hay is also grey to mix in with their timothy hay every now and again. Oxbow has all these hays available at petsmart or on amazon :)
Audrey Michele my guineas are 1 year old i gave them some cilantro and romaine lettuce any snacks we can give them or toys?
@@sbryann18 I would recommend giving lots of wooden toys that they can chew on! Most guinea pigs love the balls made out of wicker and hay (you can get those at petsmart or on amazon). You can also stuff empty cardboard toilet paper rolls with hay as a fun toy as well :)
Omg I’m is scared I feed my piggy lace berg lettuce
Iceberg^
I’ll stop feeding him it
FlowerJaz MSP no stress, your piggy won’t die. Only no nutritional value or benefit to your guinea pig 💖
PetiteCavy Can my guinea pigs eat watermelon? I’m getting 2 tomorrow
@@harveyetn6772 yes they can eat watermelon in small doses. It is very good during summer time 😊
Idk man... I don't think your feeding them enough
Please reply
Did you delete my comment ? A few months ago I commented about how bell pepper seeds are safe and they wont choke on them (source from saskias guinea pig rescue)
Kuni hi! I didn’t delete any comment. 💖
@@PetiteCavy oh my bad! Very sorry
@@Bulbart No problem! ☺️ I watch Saskia as well and Scotty’s! 💖✨
Is the amount of veges per pig?
Natalie Baltzois around 100g of veggies per guinea pig per day 💖
You should be giving them that much EACH. Not to share. That's ridiculous
Iceberg**
Please do not feed iceberg lettuce. It has no nutritional value and excessive water, which can lead to diarrhea.
