Hi all,
I've been using the nutritional charts and sample menus on here - they're so helpful. I just have a question on the lettuce portions. When it says "1 large leaf" etc, does it refer to a whole leaf off the head of lettuce or just making a largish leaf portion for a guinea pig? I've been using whole leaves and tearing them up, but it makes the amount of daily veggies well over a cup per day. Sorry if this is a silly question; I'm not used to dealing with so many veggies! The piggies' diet is far better than my own, hehe.
Also, I can't seem to get Arya and Charlie interested in any fruit. They take maybe one nibble and then ignore it. Any ideas for a no-fail fruit or does it just depend on the pig?
