Can guinea pigs eat peaches?

Guinea Pigs can eat peaches as well as almost all other kinds of fruit. They should only eat fruit one or two times a week and servings should be limited to one to two tablespoons per 2 lbs of body weight. If they get too much sweet tasting food, they will neglect other foods high in nutrients.

Yes guinea pigs can eat peaches. Guinea pigs can eat any type of fruit or vegetable. They especially love carrots, but peaches are fine for them, too. You might want to peel them so that they don't have to eat the pesticides on the skin.

Guinea pigs should not eat anything with a bulb. Tomatoes are too acidic for their bodies to handle and also can be dangerous. Other acidic fruits, like apples, can be given in moderation. In addition, nutrients are most frequent on the skin of a fruit, so just wash it well. add a comment

Yes, they can. But only fresh ones, none of that canned peaches stuff, because of added sugar. Feed in moderation. Skin the peach. Don't let it eat the core.

I was told you cannot feed apples because they cause problems and can make your guinea pig very sick with runs. add a comment

It is fine to give your guinea pig peach in small amounts, but make sure it is fresh and not canned fruit.

yes,it should be a treat for them,just like any other fruit. (but dont stop given them it they need the vitiam c). if you soil them by giving them it all the time they wont eat other food ,(any thing that isnt sweet. ) they need the high nutrients.
