Any preference for Harrington's or Burgess, @Stewybus ?

Mine defiantly prefer Burgess both the mint and the blackcurrent

Harringtons are great all round pellets & ideal for babies too because they are small. Burgess with mint are the largest & sometimes babies can't manage these. Burgess with Blackcurrant & Oregan fall inbetween. I don't have any real preference & tend to leave it to the piggies or if they're already on these pellets I don't change.

I also believe in feeding them Readigrass which is dried grass & usually really green. Just a 4 inch bowl a day per pair or topped up again in the evening in the winter whenyou can't give them good fresh grass x

Mine are on Rosewood Naturals Meadow Menu - they love it

I prefer B&M hay to Willinsons hay. It's greener and it smells nicer.

I get the meadow hay and the timothy hay from B&M.

My rabbits are on the Rosewood pellets too, they get so excited every morning when I'm putting some in their bowls

ive put some of mine on harringtons and they seem to like it..basic bunny pellets from zooplus are going down well,I'm mixing these together,as i do not want my piggies to get fixated on one pellet !

Yes I have a mix of Harringtons and oxbow cavy cuisine for them an I use Burgess excel blackcurant and oregano and the mint ones too but don't mix them I've also had the science selective but they weren't fussed on them!

I use oxbow pellets, ordered online and sent to my local pets at home store. It's near impossible to find timothy based pellets on the high street unfortunately

 

[BertnErnie1971]

Yes I agree it's so hard. Rosewood natural meadow menu is defiantly the way forward Timothy hay based no soya & no grain for me just hope they like them

I am a big fan of the Asda own plain pellets - the ones in the purple bag (not museli) - they have been reviewed on here before and seem to score very well in terms of nutrition. My three boys and girl love them and at £2 a bag I can buy a couple at once and used the savings on getting them good quality hay.

@smileyface:) I totally agree! I switched to Asda own pellets for cost reasons and found that these were the best in terms of nutrition and piggie approval!

Mine are not keen at all on the burgess pellets and the harringtons gets left in the bowl until the end. I have some of the naturals grainless but it does tend to get left in the bowl till the end, this food does smell gorgeous though.
I personally feed the science selective as all my 5 pigs love it. I find it to be the best shop brought food for me. It is the one that gets eaten the most out of the brand that I have tried.
I order my science selective from amazon and it is £21.99 for a 10kg bag.
