The following are foods you can feed your guinea pig.

  • Red Pepper (or green/yellow pepper. Red has the highest vitamin C concentration)
  • Carrots - both the root and the green tops are perfectly safe for your guinea pig.
  • Apples - just make sure they don't have any seeds.
  • Oranges
  • Leafy greens like red lettuce, romaine, or parsley (be sure to feed leafy vegetables in moderation to avoid diarrhea)
  • Cucumbers
  • Broccoli (in moderation since it can be gassy and cause a gas pain)
  • Green beans
  • Grapes
  • Bananas
  • Dandelion Greens
  • strawberries (in moderation)
  • Oranges or clementines. A helpful way to feed these to your piggie if they're being picky is to scoop out some pulp from half an orange and leave some in it so they can lick it without needing to chew on it if they're not diggin' the texture.

Why can't guinea pigs eat bananas?

Guinea pigs can eat bananas but it is not advised to feed guinea pigs very many bananas as they are high in natural sugar and can damage guinea pigs teeth. Of course they are highly nutritious and are good as a rare treat to keep a guinea pigs diet balanced. To help you with what kind of food a guinea pig can have to keep their diets balanced I have provided a list of good foods. Excellent foods include: Kale, Parsley, Sweet Red and Yellow Peppers, Broccoli and Guava. Very Good foods include: Green Peppers, Kiwi, Strawberry, Mustard Greens and Cauliflower. Fair foods include: Red Cabbage, Peas, Cantaloupe, Oranges, Snap Peas, Turnip Greens, Kohlrabi, Papaya. Poor foods include: Beet Greens, Collard Greens, Bak Choi, Aspargus, Lettuce and Carrots. All the foods above are good for your guinea pig but the poor and fair foods just need to be given less or need to be given a lot at one time of that food. So if you feed your guinea pig lots of carrot or lettuce don't fret they are good foods but the top foods are even better.
