Can Guinea Pigs Eat all types of Peppers?

Can my guineas eat all types of peppers? There are so many types. We buy a pack of 3 in green and then a pack of three with one red one yellow and one orange. I know there is also purple.....
I would like to know because we don't really use the orange or yellow...

Re: Can Guinea Pigs Eat all types of Peppers?

Yes, they can eat the other colored ones but they are more sweeter and sugar-y I believe. Some pigs are picky though and won't eat them.

Re: Can Guinea Pigs Eat all types of Peppers?

Yes, they can eat any color bell pepper, including green, red, yellow, orange, and purple. They have slightly different nutritional content (i.e. red is higher in sugar), but all can be fed frequently and at least one kind should be fed every day.

They should not have any kind of hot pepper.
