Can Guinea Pigs Eat Kiwi Fruit?

kiwi fruit

Guinea pigs can eat kiwi but, as with any other fruit, it should be fed very seldom in extremely small amounts as a treat due to the sugar content. Just feed them a small piece the size of the end of your finger at any one time.

Kiwi fruits contain a high level of vitamin C which is essential for guinea pigs as their bodies can’t produce this by themselves. However, sweet bell peppers are also high in vitamin C and a much better alternative that has more benefits to their overall health.
