Question Posh salads?

My boyfriend and I tend to eat a lot of the bags of mixed salads (rocket, chard, lambs lettuce, watercress etc) the guinea pigs have tried some and seem to love it.

Is it ok for them to keep eating?

Re: Posh salads?

Pre-bagged salad mixes are fine. Just be careful of the ones with spinach as spinach isn't an ideal veggie. Also wash it thoroughly before feeding.

You could have done a forum search and gotten the answer to this question. There are many diet related questions about something that can be fed that have been asked literally hundreds of times.

Also make sure they don't have cabbage or iceburg lettuce in the mix. Really, just be aware of what is in the mix and check it with the nutrition charts.

Thanks. Sorry I'm new to this place. I'll check the forum charts before asking next time.
Thanks again!
