Lara2913 and MyFairLacy will chime in, I'm sure, about the other advice - they're a wealth of good info!
They eat a lot of different fruits and they LOVE LOVE LOVE raw baby carrots. I usually feed them canned green beans but I would be willing to switch to fresh green beans if it's better for them (although they really love the canned ones).
