Guinea pigs cannot produce their own vitamin c so it is important to feed the avariety of veggies daily to supplement that on top of what you’re already feeding. Foods that are high in vitamin c are red/green bell peppers, kale, parsley, kiwi, oranges and broccoli florets. Also make sure he has something to chew on to help file his teeth down. i hope this helps!
