ive just been told not to give romaine lettace ffs why cant people tell me the truthThe important thing is feeding everything in moderation and rotation so they get variety
Mine get lettuce pretty much every day but it is usually two or three different types throughout the week
The chart says tomatoes can be fed daily. I would disagree with this. The acidity of tomatoes can lead to an infection called cheilitis
I also would not give carrot more than once a week (in fact mine only get it about once a month)

i do give 2-3 leaves a day or do i need to make it 2 a day or 2 every other day?There can be a lot of misinformation online, particularly amongst Facebook groups. Romaine lettuce is fine to give but as I said, it is also about moderation

my guinea pigs love mint its the first thing they eat lolonce or twice a week
what about celery?I give cucumber, bell peppers, coriander and lettuce daily. Every thing else is usually once or twice a week either for calcium reasons or simply for moderation and variety
I don’t tend to give carrot often (perhaps once a month) or fruit though (fruit is probably only given once or twice a year - I’ll give them a bit of apple in summer)
