| Not eating thier veggies... Hi i have been feeding my piggies ( this is my frist week as a new owner) the Queens diet from http://www.guineapigcages.com/forum/...gie-menus.html for two piggies. but i noticed they dont like alot of the veggies like bell peppers they moslty only eat the timothy hay and leafy greens, should i start them on some vitumns with the veggies they do like? I just want them to be as healthy as possible thanks guys  |

| Re: Not eating thier veggies... If you've just started giving them veggies, keep trying. Sometimes it takes 2-3 weeks to get them to eat many types of veggies. As long as they have a high quality pellet with stabilized C in it and they are eating some leafy greens, they will get the C they need. |

| Re: Not eating thier veggies... Welcome to the forum! I'm glad you're already researching how to give your piggies the best possible diet! They will probably come around eventually and try the other veggies. Do you have any pictures of them? What are their names? |

| Re: Not eating thier veggies... Thanks!! I do have pic's! Ivy ( 4 months) and Autumn ( 1 year) , Ivy is a long hair'd, and Autumn is a satin/ silky. They are so sweet, both were very dirty so right away when we got home we washed um up and cuddled them in a towel tell they were all dry, poor Ivy she had a poo/hay ball on her a bit bigger then a golf ball so not only did she get a bath but a new hair cut as well!! both of them are amazing! Ivy being the little one soon is so cute, i call her a whiner, she is always chatting and anytime autumn even touches her she starts yellin, hehe This is Ivy before a bath and new due...  Ivy after her bath with a new due...   Autumn is a bit more hyper so she got a pic taken with me  Checkin out the camera  |

| Re: Not eating thier veggies... Haha, that is adorable! I have a whiner too. My girl Sasha has to announce every step she takes and when a pig gets within six inches of her she automatically starts squealing really loud! She's such a baby, it's really cute! |

| Re: Not eating thier veggies... Welcome. Sometimes it will take them a lil while to get used to veggies ecspecially if they are from a petstore or person who didnt give them any. I would keep trying dif. foods all pigs are different some like some foods others dont, just like you said your pigs didnt like bellpeper and bellpeper is my boys fav. |
