    Diet advice for bladder stones

    ...similar to the haybox ones. There are variances between brands - but consider the commercial brands most recommended such as science selective grain free are also around 0.6. The benefit to the ones you have found is that they are 100% Timothy so don’t contain the fillers of other...

    Renal cysts and urate crystals

    It could be the combination of genetic and overfeeding because renal cysts and urate crystals - especially the latter - are so rare? We haven't come across them so far, hence the absence of a magic wand measure from both your vet and us. But diagnostics are improving all the time so we regularly...

    Piggie parcels new pellets

    ...by and both of them have had gaps on the shelves for months. Brillo has got very fussy in his old age, this started when I added Science Selective's new Botanicals pellets in the mix (£6.30 in P@H at moment), all the other's love them but Brillo decided if his spoon full of pellets has those...

    GP showed signs of improvement but back to being lethargic

    One of my old piggys hated emeraid too. All the pigs ive ever had to syringe feed love recovery plus by science selective. I'm currently feeding my sick pig 5ml of it every 2 1/2 hours from 5.30am until 10pm.

    Best syringe feed to get from vets?

    ...all the different brands of recovery food so you'll be limited in what you can buy over the counter. My old vets used to stock Science Selective Recovery feed, which my piggies preferred to Critical Care. The vets I used most recently were out of Critical Care so sold me some Burgess Excel...

    Uk pellets,are science selective grainfree.contains 0.6mgs.They are the lowest I've seen. USA may have other brands.i believe your water is softer than the uk.which is a hard water country.its suggested you filter uk water to lower the calcium content.

    Pellet/Nugget Brands Comparison Chart

    ...the details off at the moment, I empty them into a large tin for easier storage. I don't think anything has changed since the last chart update. They are often difficult to get here since Brexit so I mix them with Science Selective and/or Burgess Indoor so it will be a while until I order more.

    Switching Rescue Guinea Pig Food

    THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE HELPFUL ADVICE. I had never heard of that brand but I had it delivered overnight with Amazon and he immediately started eating it. I am ecstatic. I understand pellets aren’t necessary but I am not comfortable doing guesswork with him getting all his nutrients while his...

    I feed science selective grain free pellets from pets at home - they are very much enjoyed by Geoff and Bobby 🥰

    Pets at home

    Are the nuggets and hay at pets at home good enough quality for piggies? I’ve bought science selective nuggets and their own brand hay.

    Bladderstone - best diet quick fix

    I will check for those in Sweden/look for some supplier that ships to Sweden. He has been eating Science Selective Grain Free until now, because of dental issues. I think Joe can survive without pellets, but the other one will be a drama if he doesn't get a few at least. Pellets that support...

    Harringtons optimum pellets

    ...bags and not just 2 kg bags. :yikes: I usually bulk buy 10 kg bags on offer for free delivery but I have had to switch to the new Science Selective 10 kg bags last month as the best compromise between cost and quality; not that there is much choice of brands for larger quantities. SS didn't...

    TImothy hay, pellets of science selective, and some veggies : pepper bell, cucumber, fennel, celery. Do you think thats too low ? Tho he got a check up on blood and the vet did tell me that his bladders were fine.

    Refusing Syringe Feed

    ...food would be better than mushed pellets as recovery food contains fibre and added vitamin C and other nutrients they need. Science Selective Recovery plus, Emeraid and critical care are all ones I’ve tried. You may be able to get them from your vets or you can buy them online I hope she...

    ...as she could. Now it won't be painful anymore. I would just like to say, for the record, that I refused to eat the yummy bowl of Science Selective Recovery Plus that Slave made up especially for me as I wanted to show her that I was at the Ironing Board Salon under duress. I know Slave...

    Does this substitute for pellets?

    Please can someone correct me if I’m wrong, but are the ingredients of these pellets (not the mix as a whole) not actually better than those of the science selective pellets?

    Unsure about forage vs pellets!

    ...and is high calcium. It contains grains. Molasses is sugar which I also wouldn’t let my piggies have. Just giving them the science selective grain pellets is plenty. However, They can have one tablespoon per pig per day, not two so you’re giving twice the amount they should have which...

    Syringe feeding

    Hi,I'm so sorry for your loss.This looks like the syringe you get given with science selective recovery food.That is a good syringe but I prefer a small one that comes with medications with the tip cut off.

    Abdominal Breathing

    ...making a snuffly noise sometimes. He completed the antibiotics this morning and metacam last night. Have removed all trace of the old hay (Science Selective) and gone back to the previous Burgess Excel. I'm weighing daily first thing in the morning. I'm in Corsham but used to live in Swindon too.

    Vitamin C for a bad veggie eater

    ...He really likes bell pepper, kale and tomatoes but the rest he tends to just take little bite from. He gets a smaller amount of Science Selective pellets, which he enjoys. He gets Oxbow Timothy/orchid-mix hay, and he's a really good hay-eater. I would guess hay is about 95% of his diet. We...
