Guinea pigs can eat a variety of fruits and veggies as treats, but Timothy hay should be their main source of food, before pellets. Pellets should be fed in moderation. They healthiest thing is to try to mimic what their diet would be in the wild, and there aren't any pellets in the wild.

Another important thing is Vitamin C. Vitamin C needs to be added to their diets daily, because like humans, guinea pigs cannot produce their own vitamin C and are very prone to scurvy. Bell peppers, broccoli, parsley, cantaloupe and kale are all great sources of Vitamin C. You can also purchase drops to add to their water to provide extra vitamins.
