No, it only makes them pee a lot. That is the WRONG ANSWER!!! Lettuce CAN KILL a Guinea Pig! Iceburg Lettuce contains a lot of water & no vitamin C, which is essential for piggie health. NEVER feed your piggie Iceburg Lettuce. Foods that are safe are: Parsley Top veggie for "C" and Calcium. Buy in bunches at grocery store. Fresh Spinach, as above in nutrition. Kale- Has Loads of calcium and vitamin "C" Apple's --but not on a daily basis( ***I say this because one green veggie should be given with an apple or a carrot or any other non-green veggie)--great source of nutrition! Carrots- read above. Do NOT feed them the greens on the top of the bunch. Collard greens -Cheap & healthy! A bit smelly though. things Not to feed your pig: No Iceburg Lettuce-ever! No turnips, no greens from top of bunches of carrots, no potatoes, no onions, or radishes Be wise: if in doubt-throw the veggie out!( or at keep it away from your pig). Have a happy pig-:) & remember they are social animal's them in pairs. Try the local shelters for adoption. Try NOT to breed, unless you are prepared to spend about 90.00$ on ads and more on education supply's >(paper, ect). Know that shelters often have guinea pigs that are already fixed for you, in advance. Have some extra money tucked away for emg. vet visits. Your pig cage per pig, should be at least 4 by 4 per pig-they need a lot of space and a lot of car concerning cage cleaning Dirty cages will kill your piggy quickly.
Just like humans, different rabbits have different taste preferences. The only way to know what type of foods one rabbit prefers is to observe her reactions when you feed it to her. Not all lettuces are healthy for rabbits. Avoid white/light-coloured varieties entirely (like iceberg and romaine hearts) because these are low in nutritional value for rabbits, and can lead to illness (like diarrhea). Dark-coloured lettuces (like fully-grown romaine, red leaf, green leaf) are healthy in moderation: they can be included in the rabbit's "salad" but they shouldn't be fed every day. See the related question below for more info about the rabbit diet.
a guinea pig will eat atleast 8 oz. per day.Guinea pigs don't eat much pellet foods, but they should eat a small amount (about a cup full) of cut of fruit and veg twice a day. They should always have hay (preferably timothy hay) available which guinea pigs will usually eat a lot of. They should have this everyday.
Feeding iceberg lettuce to guinea pigs is not recommended as it has very low nutritional value and can cause digestive issues such as diarrhea. It is better to offer a variety of other leafy greens and vegetables that are more nutritious and safer for your guinea pig to eat.

If you're using it as a side dish or in sandwiches, you might want to adjust this amount based on your specific needs and the other ingredients being served.
