Guinea pigs require plenty of fresh water, grass or hay, and pellets. They can have up to 1 cup of vegetables per day, but that doesn't mean they need that much. Romaine lettuce is fine in moderation. This site provides a list of cavy--safe foods and detailed dietary instructions. I hope this helps. http://www.happycavy.com/what-can-guinea-pigs-eat/
