Pea Flakes, healthy?

[AlvieOB]

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for a guinea pig treat that is healthy, to reward my piggies with and hand feed to gain their trust and tame them. Are pea flakes a good option? Are they healthy?
If not, any other suggestions?
Thanks a lot,
Alvie, pawrent of teenage Peruvian boys Billy and Pumpkin!

I give mine chunks of cucumber or pepper as hand fed treats.
Mine do get pea flakes but not many.
The feeding guides on the forum might answer your question

I occasionally hand feed mine pea flakes as a treat. They love them I buy them in small bags from eBay.

I wouldn’t say they were healthy but as both my pigs are on a very strict diet with what veg they get (they get no fruit) due to my girl once being diabetic, they don’t get many treats

I stick with fresh veg and herbs

pea flakes are healthy for piggies, they contain lysine which is good for piggies. mine get about 2 a day

Mine adore pea flakes but I do restrict them.
