Anyway, can I cook the sweet potatoes too? Also what about tinned sweetcorn, I'm just feeding him it on the cob atm but it would be easier just to give him it from a can? One more question, I feed him fine sugarsnap peas atm and he loves them, but can he eat plain garden peas? I've always kept hamsters so I'm kinda learning on the job!!<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09182751282077034508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5013085805224098181.post-88512432660020234202014-01-23T05:30:54.726-05:002014-01-23T05:30:54.726-05:00By the way, we gave you a longer response in our n...By the way, we gave you a longer response in our new <a href="http://cavysavvy.blogspot.com/2014/01/can-guinea-pigs-eat-grass.html" rel="nofollow">Ask A Guinea Pig post on "Can Guinea Pigs Eat Grass?"</a>.Lola, Buffy, and Broccolihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13184277366545421212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5013085805224098181.post-76396915044902051762014-01-13T19:32:33.957-05:002014-01-13T19:32:33.957-05:00Hi Heather.

You shouldn't just let your guinea pig munch on your neighbor's lawn, or eat any other grass you're unsure of because it may have been treated with chemicals that aren't good for us. You should check out our post on <a href="http://cavysavvy.blogspot.com/2012/09/can-guinea-pigs-eat-wheatgrass.html" rel="nofollow">wheat grass</a> for a type of grass your guinea pig can safely eat. Also, you might want to consider taking your guinea pig to a <a href="http://cavysavvy.blogspot.com/2013/10/pigstravaganza-pignic-2013.html" rel="nofollow">pignic</a> since they always host them in locations where the grass is untreated.Lola, Buffy, and Broccolihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13184277366545421212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5013085805224098181.post-74274567062696331712014-01-12T20:27:20.253-05:002014-01-12T20:27:20.253-05:00i love my guinie pig he so sweet but idk if i can...i love my guinie pig he so sweet but idk if i can feel him grass<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01085800415907106775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5013085805224098181.post-22751558223461428992013-12-09T08:36:32.821-05:002013-12-09T08:36:32.821-05:00have you been feeding it hay? have u put vitamin c...have you been feeding it hay? have u put vitamin c drops in his water? also, look at his teeth and see if they are maybe too long or overgrown for your pig to eat....is your pig a male? google impaction...that may be the issue...it is something you can treat at home...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13174807696870205858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5013085805224098181.post-88264748062669805312013-12-01T23:20:26.165-05:002013-12-01T23:20:26.165-05:00My Guinie pig does not want to eat or drink the on...My Guinie pig does not want to eat or drink the only thing that he eats is sweet potato smashed in a bottle.
