Bought new food and hay today....

[vicky_notts]

So brought them new food today as they wasnt keen on the one he came with. I went for Burgess excel tasty nuggets.

And also tried new hay. I've ran out today so brought Timothy hay by alfalfa king.

Does anyone else use these or tried them before? What's your thoughts?

Thanks, Vicky

Burgess nuggets are a favourite on here followed by P@H (cheaper than burgess but less piggies like it)
Never had experience with the hay though as i find it quite expensive but i've had p@h's timothy and it's rubbish compared to hay for pets (google it - don't do alfalfa for piglets though but it's great for when they're older)

Ours aren't keen on the Timothy hay - have tried almost every online supplier for a good hay with no luck, resorted to farm bales which made the piggies scratch so that was the end of that too
I just buy Wilko's meadow and timothy hay now, works out a bit more expensive per week as we have 18 piggies but if they are happy, that's all I care about.
Would not have tried the supermarket/shop brands had I not been at my wits end with suppliers so just took a chance at it's paid off |)
Ours love the Harringtons Optimum pellets, Burgess Excel nuggets in small amounts and the Blackcurrant/Oregano are a hit.
This is a great site and use them monthly for pellets/nuggets:
