Give it a while and see if anyone else wants the rest. I don't want to be greedy, but if there aren't any other takers, you could just send them to me, and anything I don't use will end up in a seed parcel at some point.

Debster, guinea pigs should only have small amounts of lettuce & spinach. Hope they aren't over doing it ;). I think it's the oxalic acid.

It was the vet who said not to but I have also read it since then.  The sister of one of the girls at the vets had GPs & they died very young & she thought it was because they had been fed to much lettuce & spinach even though she had advised them about it. Some sites say they are OK others no but they seem to agree on iceburg as it is of little nutritional value & full of nitrates.
