Here is some tips for first time guinea pig owners

If ur holding ur lil piggie freind and it nibbles on u it means it doesn't like be held the way u are holding it

Guinea pigs can eat

weet colorful bell peppers: Guinea pigs can have red, orange, and yellow bell peppers two to three times per week, but not at the same time as other sweet foods are offered. These peppers are good for your pet but , too many sweets can make guinea pigs sick.

Guinea pigs don't usually overeat, but it's important to provide the proper balance of pellets, hay and fresh vegetables. ... Vegetables like red or green pepper, broccoli and tomatoes have high levels of vitamin C in them and are great daily options. Add carrots, zucchini and sweet potato once or twice a week

Guinea pigs can eat star fruit as it is rich in Vitamin C and other nutrients too. But we should only serve starfruit sparsely because star fruit has a hint of phosphorus and sugar and is quite acidic. They can cause serious health problems if overfed to our cavies

feeding a small amount of pineapple as a treat to your guinea pig on occasion is totally fine and they will likely LOVE you for it! Moderation = A couple little cubes of pineapple is enough pineapple for one guinea pig.

Guinea pigs should also be fed grass and/or leafy vegetables (e.g. lettuce, spinach, cabbage, celery, the outer leaves of corn, cauliflower leaves etc). Greens are especially important for guinea pigs as they supply them with Vitamin C

radishes These should be fed to your piggy rarely as they contain oxalic acid. Radish leaves are high in calcium, so you should be careful with these as too much calcium can lead to bladder stones

For one guinea pig. A few slices of water melon is fine for 1 pig

So I looked up everything that is in this little guide hope this helped
