what foods are low in calcium for guinea pigs
Some calcium is needed in your guinea pig's diet, but calcium-rich foods, such as alfalfa, must be fed sparingly to avoid getting a surplus of calcium in your guinea pig's system. In my herd, alfalfa is an occasional treat; we rely on Timothy-based pellets, as well as Timothy and grass hay.owever, fruits, due to a higher sugar content, would not be a main staple in a guinea pig's diet, so the risk is lower than with vegetables. Fruits that are particularly low in calcium include peaches, blueberries, and bananas.
