Best Answer

Guinea pigs can eat grass, and it is good for them. They can eat as much as they want. However, it is a good idea to make sure the grass doesn't have chemicals in it, and to dorm your guinea pig routinely, as parasite eggs can be found in grass.

No they cannot. You should start feeding your guinea pigs hay at 8 weeks when they are ready to leave their mothers.

What are guinea pig pellets?

Guinea pig pellets are small pieces of food that guinea pigs eat. Pellets can be timothy based or alfalfa based. For an adult guinea pig a timothy based pellet is best because alfalfa includes extra protein and calcium that young (under age one) and pregnant guinea pigs need, but adult guinea pigs don't. Pellets should be available to guinea pigs at all times as they are the main part of a guinea pig's diet. Source Guinea pig owner
