Re: Cavy Nutrition Charts Discussion Thread

I think jabberwock answered the tomato question very well. I feed roma's myself to my herd about 2-3 times per week. One small tomato covers all the pigs. They are less pulpy and contain more flesh. The tomato on the charts are an average for all types of regular tomatoes in 100 gram sizes. Cherry tomatoes are listed as singly served.

Yams and Sweet Potatoes are technically two entirely different tubers. Most of what grocers carry are sweet potatoes and not yams. Yams are typically in season in the fall I believe. If you aren't sure, ask your local grocer if they carry both.
