    Little One Green Valley - thoughts?

    I'm thinking about transitioning my pigs from their current pellets to Little One Green Valley. I've attempted to do this before, but to be honest I was way too impatient with the pigs and gave up far too soon. I just wanted to ask what people's thoughts are regarding this food? Thank you :)

    How do I convince my guinea pigs that I'm not trying to poison them?

    So, I bought my piggies some pellets from Piggie Parcels. Here are the reviews the pigs gave (their words, not mine): First day - Piggy approved. Best food in the world. Chef's kiss 👌. Second day - Disgusting. Poison. Cardboard is more enticing. I have no idea what happened in those 24hrs - I...

    Why is it so difficult to find good quality pellets for a good price?

    Bit of a rant :') Why is it *so* incredibly difficult to find good quality pellets that don't cost an arm and a leg? The only ones I've found are Piggie Parcels, Rosewood Meadow Menu HayBox - great quality overall and they're not too expensive. Other brands like Bunny Nature or Small Pet...

    Piggie Parcels Pellets

    Hi all - I'm looking at Piggie Parcels' pellets and I'm really liking the ingredients, but the protein percentage concerns me. Why is it so high? Is this something I should be worrying about?

    elderly pig not eating pellets?

    Hi guys, I’m a bit new here but as a guinea pig mom to elderly guys, I thought it would be good to have an account for any questions I had. So recently, my old man Nox (almost 6 yrs) has just completely stopped eating pellets. He still eats his hay and salads/veggies/fruits and is enticed by...

    Begging for pellets?

    Every day I refill Clover and Stella's food bowl. One tablespoon of pellets each. In the evening their bowl is empty, and whenever I walk by they wheek at me. I give them a little bit more, and in the morning it's empty. We're back to where we started. Are they truly hungry, or are they eating...

    How much pellets?

    Hi! I’ve got two guinea pigs at 11 weeks old and I think I’ve been over feeding! I read that young guinea pigs should have unlimited pellets so I’ve been letting them have quite a lot. Now I’ve read that they should only have 1 tbsp per pig! They’re currently on adult food and I think they’re...

    Burgess pellets

    Hi, Both my boys are fed on Burgess pellets the carrot and mint (think that’s the flavour😂 the orange bag as opposed to the purple they do). I actually feed my rabbit on the same stuff and this is the only food he eats (my boys aren’t fussed). When I had Steve at the vets about his squeaking...

    Not Eating As Much Hay Beginning 5/7

    On Thursday, May 7, I opened a fresh new bag of hay (I use Oxbow's Timothy Hay/Orchard Grass Blend). Neither of my guinea pigs seemed that interested and preferred instead to eat what was left of their old bag; hay that was arguably less fresh and getting stale. But even then, they did not eat...

    Guinea pig pellets

    Hi everyone! I'm a relatively new piggy mum and I’m just wondering how much I should feed my 2 boys? On the pellets we get, it says 35g per pig a day but they get through it very quickly, I’m talking about 4-5 hours sometimes! I’m wondering if they need a constant supply of pellets or we can...

    Suddenly Stopped Eating Pellet Food

    I feed my guinea pigs Oxbow Essentials (Adult) for their pellet food, and suddenly within the past 4-5 days, they have stopped eating it - they will either eat a few or sniff their bowls once and walk away altogether. As I am normally in my room getting ready for the day while they eat (which...

    1 year old and 3 month old. What food is better?

    I have a 1 year and 1 month old guinea pig who lives in the same cage as a 3 month old guinea pig. Should I feed pellets and hay made for adult guinea pigs or ones made for baby guinea pigs?

    New pellets

    My guinea pigs don't want to eat their new pellets (it's more like granules I think). I tried to mix them with the old ones but they only eat the old pellets. They just sniff the pellets and don't try to eat them (I have to admit, those pellets have really strong smell). I bought a big pack and...
