1 Quick Manual
Your guinea pig needs to eat and drink, unless it is of a stuffed plush species. Provide it with the following:
- Fresh water in a drip bottle. Change the water and clean the bottle on daily basis.
- Unlimited amounts of grass hay, available 24/7. This is not negotiable.
- About ¼ - ⅛ cup of plain, dye free guinea pig pellets (heavy, ceramic bowl is recommended for serving to prevent tipping). The boring, grayscale ones are preferred over the funny colorful ones.
- Fresh vegetables on daily basis, especially those with high Vitamin C content.
! SAFE vegetables: green leaf lettuce, romaine lettuce, escarole, red leaf lettuce, curly endive, cilantro.
! UNSAFE vegetables: cabbage family, iceberg lettuce, broccoli, cauliflower, beet greens, radishes.
