Can my Guinea Pig eat Acorn Squash?

94

Yes they can!

2-3 times a week

Guinea pigs can eat acorn squash in small amounts as a treat, but it should not be a regular part of their diet due to its high carbohydrate and sugar content. Consuming too much acorn squash can lead to obesity and may also predispose guinea pigs to digestive issues such as bloat or enterotoxemia. It’s best to offer acorn squash sparingly to avoid any potential health problems for guinea pigs.
