Question
i have a baby (about 8 weeks)guinea pig and he does not like fresh veggies. All the websites say to give fresh veggies in addition to pellets and timothy hay. i'm worried about him not eating these veggies (although he seems to like banana). Help or advise please.

Answer
Oh some of my guinea pigs are very fussy try giving the supplement dried fruit or veggies or vitamins - you can get special vitamins that you use in the water, really experiment with all types of veggies and greenery - dandelion leaves, cabbage, lettuce, cauliflower, carrots !! anything
see what he takes a shine too
