Way too much hay

Today my pig was great except she ate 3 hay-racks full of hay! Is that way too much? Is their any health issues she might have? She is all alone in her cage and is still in quarantine. She's on ivermectin if that has any concern.

Re: Way too much hay

Actually, that's not too much hay. Let her eat as much as she wants. That's why we tell people to give unlimited amounts.

Re: Way too much hay

Thanks I just wanted to be sure. I think it could have been because she was starving from only eating a little amount of pellets.

Thumbs up Re: Way too much hay

It is ok if your guinea pig eats that much hay So do not worry at all your guinea pig will be fine
