Can guniea pigs have a popsicle?

Guinea Pigs aren't really supposed to have fat and sugar.They can eat small amounts of fruit, vegetables, no lettuce, or spinach, it makes guinea pigs have diarihha (didn't spell that right sorry). Lettuse leaves and clovers are god, the also like hickory or timothy hay, depending on what you \r guinea pigs like to eat. Anyway, guinea pigs don't really need sugar and fats in their diet, it isnt very good for them. I've never tried giving my two pigs 1. Maybe just try freezing fruit and water and then giving them some sometimes. the coloring in popsicles isn't really good for them either. :)

What will happen if you fed your guinea pig iceberg lettuce?

Iceberg Lettuce is not Guinea Pig food and is not a healthy part of their diet. Guinea pigs may eat little pieces of iceberg lettuce as a treat, but will get no nutrition from it other than a little water. Guinea pigs that are given large amounts of iceberg lettuce will fill up on this food which has no nutrition, and it then prevents them from eating as much of their good foods. Eating a diet with lots of iceberg lettuce can cause them to be malnourished, get sick and die if only given iceberg lettuce (sad but true, this lettuce is inexpensive so people may be tempted to give it daily like food- causing their guinea pigs to die of starvation). Guinea pigs need lots of timothy hay and vitamin C rich pellets as the staple of their diet. Things like carrots, oranges, blueberries, green leafy vegetables are great snacks that give them lots of vitamins. Iceberg gives no vitamins, no calories, but makes them feel full- so iceberg lettuce should only be given as a treat in small amounts and try to give them green lettuces instead- the darker the lettuce (spinach) the more nutritional value. Guinea pigs are not allergic to iceberg and will not have an adverse reaction to iceberg- it is safe to give in very small amounts.

When is lettuce ready to pick?

I pick lettuce as soon as it starts producing around a dozen palm sized leafs. It will continue to grow more leafs all spring and summer, though when the weather gets hot, the plant tends to bolt. When it bolts and goes to seed, I pull up the whole plant, and replant more. Planting lettuce again in August is good, since many lettuce varieties ( red, romaine, endive, grand rapids, etc. ) prefer cooler weather.

Is it good for a guniea pig to eat 2 full leafs of lettuce a day?

Leaf lettuce does not have a lot of food value, is mostly water. Make sure to feed your guinea pig dark colored leaf lettuce with other types of greens & fruits & veggies, such as spinach, carrots & carrot tops, alfalfa hay, celery tops, pieces of apples, oranges, broccoli. The guinea pig also needs to be supplemented with vitamin C added to their diet, use the liquid or grind up tablets of Vit C into their food. Most animals naturally manufacture their own Vitamin C with the exception of humans, Guinea Pigs & Rhesus Monkey. It is very important that you add Vitamin C to your Guinea Pig's diet. The key is to feed your guinea pig various types of greens, fruits & vegetables.

Nutritionally speaking, lettuce really doesn't contain much of anything, so it'be more a case of lettuce not being bad rather than being actually good. But sure, if you were to compare a lettuce to a donut, then the lettuce would be "good" for you.
