Vitamin C Supplements for Guinea Pigs

This is a good article (especially if coupled with Ly's food chart).

Re: Vitamin C Supplements for Guinea Pigs

Looking at the foods list on this link, they have dried herbs and cooked foods, both which are not suitable for pigs. I don't think it's sending the right message in ways, especially for newbies who don't know much about feeding veggies. They may end up thinking it's ok to feed cooked foods.

I am going to edit the link out of your post until I have the time to review it a bit more and talk to the other mods about it.

Re: Vitamin C Supplements for Guinea Pigs

The problem I am having with it is those charts. It mentions cooked foods and cavies should NEVER, EVER receive cooked foods. I am gonna have to talk it over with the other mods. Give us a few days.
