Foster Piggies

[Catherine]

Quote:They love carrot tops and we get them whenever we can, but most veg is so well prepared these days that we don't see them often. We will, on occasion, grow the tops from carrots on a saucer of water but it takes weeks to produce enough and it's eaten in seconds!!

I tried growing them, but it took forever and I got a few straggly leaves.

So I bought a beet, yes just one. After all we may not like it. And I will remember not to panic when they pee red.

So, they like it in fine strips. I already cut their food up. I also cut fine veggies for two bearded dragons and other assorted lizards. The piggies will eat chunks of butternut squash, but the lizards need it in tiny pieces. I will try thin shreds of beet and see what they think.
They like slices of Banana too, but only if I don't give it to them too often. I buy one Banana and wait a while before I get another.
They are so fussy.

Cecil sounds like he is just so happy to be alive. His life has become wonderful and happy and full of love and treats. He is a lucky guinea pig.
