Boredom Breaker Treats

Anyone feed them? I've just recently come across the brand watching some youtube videos.
Along with a bunch of cute toys I wish they'd sell in the states lol.

I would stick to little bits of their favourite veg or pinches of dried forage (never more). Anything that contains fat in any form (including seeds), dairy (including yoghurt) or sugar (honey or molasses) is junk food.

We have got a thread with toy ideas; the best ones are thankfully very cheap and renewable. They satisfy the destructive streak that guinea pigs have. Shop toys are usually very expensive and mostly ignored in my own experience. https://www.theguineapigforum.co.uk/threads/guinea-pig-toys.43520/

Guinea pigs don't need chewing toys; they need hay (up to 80% of their daily food intake) to keep the crucial molars nicely ground down; if that is the case, the self-sharpening front teeth won't overgrow. Soft hay in a paper pag or the cardboard inners of a toilet roll are therefore much more fun for a piggy!

Thank you @Wiebke ! I've now got a lot of enrichment ideas for their runs now.
