| Re: Can I feed my guinea pigs fresh grass, dandelions, and other forages? Great list, Ly, thanks for posting it. I had just been wondering about lemon balm which I see is also called lemon mint.
I do have a few questions - you have peppermint (mentha piperita) on the list, but not spearmint (mintha spicata). Do you think spearmint would be okay too?
There are also the herbs that are included in the new Oxbow botanical hay: Chamomile, Lemon Verbena, Hibiscus, Lavender, Rose Hips, Comfrey, Borage, Red Clover Blossoms. I know some of these are already on your list, but do you think its safe to assume that if Oxbow would include it, then it is okay? I am particularly curious about lavender.
Thanks! |
