I know your only supposed to feed them 1 apple 1-2 a week but how do you feed the apple to them?? I'm completely clueless and my Mom just bought a bag of Apples and I told her Guinea Pigs could eat them. So how do you feed the Apple to them?       |

It's not 1 apple it's 100 grams (about 3.6 ounces) of apple 1-2 times a week. There is a BIG differance. |

Take the seeds out though they're bad for the pigs. I give them thin slices as a treat every few days. They LOVE them. |

Make sure to remove all the seeds. The seeds are not safe. No more than 1/8th of the apple per pig per feeding as they are high in sugars and also very acidic (can cause mouth sores). |
