Can i feed my guinea pigs nettles?

I've been told they can eat nettles, but I am worried in case they sting them.

They have a varied diet and will only eat fresh veg they hate the dried stuff.

There fav food is dandelion the leaves and flower,but has I live near afield i was wondering if I can feed them the nettles.



I've only had them a few weeks, and they are my 1st 1s so I am still learning stuff bout them,so any hints and tips would be grateful too.



And yes I have checked they are both sows, and they are 3 months old.

OK according to the breeder down the road poisonous plants to guinea pigs include

Buttercup

Foxglove

Most trees (can't be bothered to list lol)

Most garden plants

Nettles



Safe wildstuffs are rare although chickweed is another from what the other guy said

Reply:no you shouldn't. they definitely prefer dandelions and a bit of clover, lucerne, carrots, anything but nettles and lettuce.



hope this helps.
