Bestpets Guinea Pig Food
Bestpets Guinea Pig Food is a complementary food specially formulated to provide the essential ingredients for a balanced and healthy guinea pig diet of fibre, protein, oil, vitamins and minerals.
Directions
- Guinea pig food should be made available each morning. The average guinea pig will need between 30-50g of mix per day.
- Fresh greens, vegetables and fruits such as apples, chickweed, cauliflower leaves, broccoli and dandelion greens must be well washed prior to offering them. Never offer food direct from the refrigerator.
- A daily amount of good clean hay is essential in aiding the guinea pig's digestion.
- Clean drinking water should always be available, either using a water bowl or more hygienically a water bottle. Water should ideally be changed twice a day.
- A good quality earthenware food bowl is essential to keep the food clean and dry. Plastic bowls should be avoided as guinea pigs can chew or knock them over.
- When introducing a new diet to your guinea pig it is essential to gradually change their diet over a set period. It is recommended that a guinea pig’s diet should be changed over a period of 30 days. A sudden change in diet can lead to a loss in appetite due to their sensitive digestive systems.
