I just got two girl guinea pigs about a month ago, they are about a year and 7 months (I think)
I have them on Oxbow Cavy Cuisine and they have unlimited access to Oxbow Timothy Hay, and they get fresh veggies every day and fresh fruits every once in a while, also they are getting fresh water every day and sometimes I take them out in the backyard in their portable pen to graze on our grass (no fertilizers or pesticides) I take them out of their cage for cuddles almost every day. I have been not giving them their Oxbow Daily C because I read that guinea pigs are supposed to have 25mg of Vitamin C every day and Daily C has 50 mg per tablet, and they are getting C from the veggies and fruits that I am giving them, and their food has Vitamin C too. They also have fleece bedding that gets cleaned every day, and two igloos, and lots of chew toys. Will someone please tell me if I am doing things right and if not, please tell me what I could do better?
 
Sounds like you are doing a great job! Bell peppers are great food for getting vit C in their diets, we feed these daily. Welcome to the forum :) Be wonderful to see some photos of your piggies.
 
Welcome to the forum! :) Sounds like you are very dedicated to your fur children and doing a great job!
 
Hi and :wel:

Your girls are very lucky to have you as their mum! Great job and keep up the good work!
 
Hello and welcome! Sounds like you're doing a great job!

I agree with the bell peppers. Really good vit C source and my piggies love them!
 
Sounds like they're well taken care of!
