Don't give the guinea pig any stalks of celery. Anything else that is a 'vegetable' is okay, but make the vegetables strapping on the lettuce (for water) and put some very hard ones (raw carrots, turnips, etc) within to help keep the teeth from growing too long. You may also want to put a block of wood in ... use something similar to a pine block that comes off of a 2x4 or 4x4 and be sure it's not treated with creosote or other chemical agent that could wound your pet. No meat, of course, and no bread. Feed a good guinea pig 'pellet' at all times, and use the fresh vegetables as 'supplements' to that stout diet. Also provide a 'salt lick' (usually a circle, sometimes a square, that can be wired to the side of the cage to keep it dry), because guinea pigs necessitate salt in their diet more than the other rodents do. And fresh clean hose every day, too, of course ... no juice, milk, soda, or alcoholic beverages.

I'm pretty sure you can give it cellery and lettuce but I'm not completely certain, I would just feed it guinea pig food to stay on the safe side!
a great deal of lettuce can be bad for any small mammals...especially iceberg lettuce. you shouldnt give them anything beside a lot of protein in it because its hazardous to their health.
Fruits and veggies are ok to nurture them just dont give them large amounts... lots of treats can sort the sick and cause them to be overweight
Guinea pigs like to eat hay and alfalfa so quality free to give that to them too.
Good luck w /ur guinea pigs
in good health im not sure exactally but i heard u shouldnt feed them any artificial snacks and chesse it may look cute but fatal
Sushi, Lasagne, fish and chips, bleach, beans on toast, donuts, and aliminium.
