I have acquired a 4 week old female guinea pig about 3 weeks ago,
which probably makes her about 1 month old.. This guinea pig (WeeBo)
was given to me, because her equilibrium is off. The problem is that I
cannot get her to eat fresh vegetables or fruits that I give the other
guinea pigs in the morning. I have 6 total. Four females share one big
cage. I have even put her by herself, and try to force feed her. But
she refuses. She will now drink water, and eat the pellets, and eat
Timothy Hay. Don't know if I should be overly concern, or just be
patient...

I guess GPs are like humans in their preferences. WeeBo won't be harmed by
the pellets and hay if the pellets have vitamine C in them. She might decide
veggies are good sometime in the future but I wouldn't worry now if I was
you.

Please also give little WeeBo some nose rubs for me.
