No, they cannot overeat hay. Like I said, it's essential to their diet. When they get full, they will stop for a while. Cavies are constant grazers.
I also said unlimited hay, not unlimited food. You do want to limit pellets in pigs older than 6 months because pellets are the least of any cavies diet. They should also get the minimum of 1 cup of veggies each per day. Primarily leafy greens and then some other things like bell pepper added in for vitamin C content. See the nutrition charts and sample menus sticky threads at the top of this forum section for ideas. |
