As you can see breadfruit has a hint of phosphorus, calcium, and a little acid. It is also very sweet.
However breadfruit also has a very good amount of vitamin c in it.
So guinea pigs can eat breadfruit, however only once a week in small amounts because of its sweetness. However, it would be a good addition to their diets because of the vitamin c content.
However do get rid of the skin and only feed the flesh.
