    Is the science selective grain free a good option? I feed my two the science selective brand already but not the grain free so would change if grain free is better for them.

    Burgess Excel Mint Nuggets Stink!

    Hi, The day pebbles passed we ran out of nuggets. Pumpkin was never too fond of the science selective grain free stuff so I took a trip to pets at home to buy some new nuggets. Ive never had these ones before but they do not smell good at all. They smell like boiled potatoes or mashed...

    Discomfort going to the toilet!

    The food is science selective, recovery food. We aren't giving him anything that the vet hasn't since we don't want to upset him more.

    Does this substitute for pellets?

    I see, so it’s just down to personal decision. To me, wheat, alfalfa and straw are all grasses (or parts of them) so are more natural than the soy bean hulls that the science selective seems to be made largely of.

    What the heck😱

    Definitely either return to retailer or contact burgess. I had some odd hard lump in a 10kg bag of science selective food and took a photo to email them more out of curiosity of what it was. Turns out it was some wastage from the process that shouldn't make it in to the bag. They wanted to send...

    Small nuggets?

    ...intakes Belle and Vera are having some problems with their teeth, albeit only minor. Belle can't manage larger nuggets such as science selective at the minute, but can happily munch away on burgess dual care. Of course this only comes in little sample packs and is very expensive! Can anyone...

    Piggies only want to eat muesli.

    ...bits they like and leave the rest. The mixes are also full of additives and things that shouldn't really be eaten, like seeds. Science selective is a great brand, many of the people on the forum use them, including me. Stop feeding the muesli all together and continue feeding everything...

    ...Mon: 946g Tues: 936g Wed: 922g I've started Fibreplex today as it's just arrived in the post, and have been syringe feeding Science Selective Recovery Plus since yesterday, as I was able to get this from another vets locally. I'm not sure if it is just old age rather than a specific...

    Need help with possible recurring abscess/cutaneous neoplasia?

    ...more! I’ve been wanting to try Emeraid or the Kavee Krucial Care one but I can’t find them in Ireland 😔 Critical Care and the Science Selective recovery feeds are the most accessible here. My boys over the past few years have been eating the Versela Laga Cavia Complete nuggets because of...

    Oh brilliant ! I’ll purchase some piggie parcels. I just want them to be as healthy as possible and I’m prepared to pay. I’m forgoing Botox to afford these pigs hahaha

    Ruby - lots of questions r.e. cystitis, ovarian cysts

    You have to find the level if cystease which works for a maintenance dose but it can go up during a flare. I would actually measure pellets out properly - no more than one tablespoon per day. Or is far too easy to overfeed then without properly measuring them. You could even cut them down...

    Hay

    ...having issues with hay delivery and I'm looking for a quality shop bought hay until my delivery arrives. Has anyone used Oxbow (for rabbits) or the Science selective for their piggies? I have avoided these before despite looking to be good quality as they are / appear to be marketed for rabbits.

    Burgess Excel Mint Nuggets Stink!

    ...think any pellets should smell like potatoes. Have you tried the pellets from Piggie Pellets They are a bit more expensive than Science Selective Grain Free but you don't need much per piggy. My three like them (Thea wasn't keen to begin with but eats them now) and the 3 of them only...

    Alfalfa in Pellets...

    Good idea; I'll try mixing their old food in with new food too.... and watch them just pick out their old favourite food and ignore the new stuff, probably. XD When I'm just about finished the bag I've got, I'll try what fluffysal did and hopefully switch them over to a new food without a...

    Does this substitute for pellets?

    Except piggies shouldn’t eat alfalfa (its not a grass, it’s a legume and is too high in calcium) and straw has absolutely no nutritional value (it’s just the dried stems of grain plants and is very different to hay which is dried grass). Wheat grains should be avoided. Whatever pellet is fed...
