Can my Guinea Pig eat Cucumber With Peel?

Yes they can!

Up to 7 days a week

Guinea pigs can eat cucumber with the peel as it is a delicious addition to their varied diet and provides a high water content. However, it should not make up the majority of their staple vegetable portion, as guinea pigs need a minimum of 5 leafy greens in their diet for proper nutrition. Therefore, while cucumber with peel can be a refreshing snack for guinea pigs, it should not be the main component of their diet.
