When I had a dog I loved making treats for her. I love knowing everything I put in it was vegetarian and natural. I was wondering if there are any recipes for guinea pig treats? Recipes with herbs, veggies, nuts, seed, fruits, whatever. (Preferably recipes with a lot vitamin D)

I'm pretty new to guinea pigs but I know for sure that they can't have seeds and I'm pretty sure they can't have nuts (not 100% on that). For treats I just give my piggy a slice of cucumber or a couple of blueberries or occasionally a small piece of watermelon rind.

No nuts or hard seeds. Guinea pigs have incredibly narrow throats and can easily choke on something hard.

What's wrong with bits of herbs and occasional fruit?
