Don't give your piggie yogurt! Where do some of these stupid people come from. Piggies need vitamen C every day. Go to the guinealynx web, it will give you all of the information you need for feeding and treats.

Green leafy veggies are good, veggies such as carrots, celery, peppers, green beans, and such are wonderful for them. Fruits such as, apples, oranges, tomatoes, grapes, and such are good. Just go easy on fruits as it is not apart of the normal Guinea Pig diet and can cause stomach problems if eating to much fruit. My girls get a salad ever night for dinner which consists of a little of what I named. For treats that I use in training them, banana skin (very good for them), and little Guinea Pig vitamin C yogurt drops that you can get at the pet store are good.You can also buy several different types of Guinea Pig treats at a pet store. Though some Guinea Pigs tend to prefer fresh treats compared to what the pet store sells. Just depends on the Guinea Pig.

pretty much any fruit and veggie is great- no avocados though or iceberg lettuce (will get them sick) romaine lettuce is excellent. One thing you should be doing is at least give them weekly orange slices for vitamin C. Guinea pigs have problems with vit C absorption and need a lot of it.
It may take a while before they will eat it, but most end up loving it. To be careful, start adding the fruits and veggies in small amounts so they can get used to the bacteria in fruit (just like if you ate too much fruit from another country- you would get sick) You can feed plenty of oranges and grapefruits, but feed everything else in moderation. Too much spinach/kale can be bad and bind up calcium to toxic levels, but most grapes, strawberries, apples and melons are ok.

Most veggies are good, we give ours spinach, lettuce and other green leafy veggies, also carrots and beetroot to (though it turns their mouths pink!). The other things we give them are apples, and dandelion leaves (just picked from the garden). Things like apples and carrots are better cut into smaller peices so they can carry them around (ours always take them to a 'hiding' place!)
Apart from that, shops sell little treats you can buy for them.
