changing to a different brand of nuggets..

[tinky75]

hi my piggies are on the pets at home nuggets.... was thinking of changing to the Burgess Excel nuggets.. do I just gradually introduce small amounts the new food, I don't want to cause any tummy upsets.

Does anyone else feed on the p@h nuggets?

You can switch over gradually. The shift won't cause any tummy upsets, not even if you shift in one go.

I switched some of my piggies in one go from Gertie's muesli to Burgess Excel without any tummy trouble - although my old lady held out on me for three full weeks (she'd previously refused to shift on any softly softly approachmallethead).

I was feeding my girls PAH nuggets, as that's what they were on before I adopted them. But they have been leaving more and more of them, so I tried a few Excel nuggets, and they ate those straight away. So now they wont touch the PAH ones at all, so I had to swap without a gradual change.

Dindy scoffs down the P@H pellets with relish. Well, not actually with rellish, water actually. I don't think she would be too pleased with me if I offered her relish.
I will often hand feed her a pellet when she is sat poking her head out of her hidey.rolleyes

Pets @ Home nuggets

My girls were on Pets @ Home muslei but were picking out certain bits so I changed them to P@H nuggets to makes sure they were getting a balanced diet. They seem to "like" them. I heard piggies are supposed to eat mostly hay anyway so I'm not too worried if they don't devour the nuggets in vast quantities. They certainly don't look underfed! They have a variety of hay and have recently tried "Hay Cookies" just for some variety and they seem to like them.
