Small World Guinea Pig Complete Feed 9 lbs.

piggies love these pellets! price is acceptable, just wish the smaller bag was in stock more often

A small amount of research will reveal that this is not appropriate for guinea pigs over the age of six months. It is alfalfa-based, and alfalfa is too high in calcium for adults. Adults should have timothy-based pellets. Also, the care instructions on the bag are incorrect. It says they should have unlimited pellets. This is true up to six months only. After 6mo, they should only get 2 tablespoons/day, unlimited hay, and limited veggies. I'd say this item should be marked as being for young/pregnant/nursing pigs only, but I'd guess it's junky enough to not be good enough for that either.

I have done my research and I know adult piggies shouldn’t have alfalfa based pellets, but I bought these anyway to mix in with their regular oxbow pellets. I figured pellets are a small portion of their diet and the calcium won’t be too major of a deal. I hand fed both of my piggies a few pellets to see how they liked them and they couldn’t get enough. I couldn’t believe how they wolfed them down and wheeked for more. I will be buying more to mix in with their regular pellets.

I buy this product not for a Guinea pig but for my patagonian cavys which are relatives of the Guinea pig but much larger they love it I am very pleased with the product and will continue to buy it

All 6 of my guinea pigs love this food. The other brands that have large and small pellets, and other bits, are often not as liked by my pigs. These are all one size, great quality pellets. I wish the price was a little better but its the best guinea pig food out there.

I noticed that ny guinea pig gets bored with the pellets if its not combined with the nature's blend that you guys sell. Cause if not combined, unless she's starving... she'll get bored with the pellets. It doesn't excite her. The pellets were a huge fascination for my male guinea pig before he unexpectedly passed away due to old age. But with her, she's like "mommy! This bores me!". So I would suggest this for "normal" guinea pigs. Not mine. 🤣

These pellets are great! They give my Guinea pigs all the nutrition they need, so we can give them other snacks without worrying about there being any nutrition deficit. They are healthy and happy on this food!

My last Guinea pigs only ate this food for their pellets and they lived over 8 years. Must be decent since they lived long healthy lives. My New Guinea pigs are 2 and seem to be staying healthy as well.

my guinea pigs love these pellets they go crazy for them the only thing the price sky rocketed alot i used to get them alit for like $7.99 or $8.99 one of the two now they almost 12 dollars

Our pig does well on this. He prefers the 'fun' food with the colored bits, but throws it all over the cage to find the fun stuff. This feed keeps his weight up and him looking healthy without the mess.
