Due to the nature of many of the pigs here at TEAS, they need to have the smaller nuggets. They enjoy the Excel Blackcurrant and Oregano nuggets. However, they do only come in the smaller bags and, as you can imagine, our piggies get through a huge amount very quickly! You can help us out by sending a contribution of food directly to TEAS. Our address is:

The Excellent Adventure Sanctuary
20 Fleetwind Drive
East Hunsbury
Northampton
NN4 0ST

Thank you!

Thank you so much, very appreciated. The money we raise for TEAS only cover the vet bills and all the rest I pay for myself, which is becoming increasingly difficult to fund, due to the extra residents we have taken on during 2014. Now they are able to eat well again, our little guys love their food, and the veggies alone are costing in the region of £50 per week, without taking into account buying the nuggets. It's just lovely seeing them all enjoy their food again!

Know how lovely it feels to see piggies loving their food again after my boy's recent illness & massive weight loss. I'll be happy to help fill those little tummies!
 
I saw on a site somewhere before someone asking for barcodes of used Burgess guinea pig food to be sent to her as apparently she had a deal with Burgess to get food from them this way. Does TEAS have anything similar?

Yes are part of the Burgess scheme, but to be honest I have only ever received one bag of food, and that has been in about two years.
 
Hi,

Just though I'd let you know that if you order Burgess Excel online on Amazon.co.uk you can get a 10k bag of it for £20, which considering that the 2kg bags of the mixed flavours cost £11-12 that's pretty good value :D

Ah, so there is no point sending you the barcodes as Burgess have only ever once made good on their promise? Shame as I have about 4..

I think the TEAS piggies don't eat the normal (value) nuggets but the more expensive and smaller flavoured ones. Only the nuggets come in 10kg not the flavoured I thought. I used to feed mine on these but fortunately they liked the nuggets and refused to eat the flavoured ones after when I tried.
 
If anyone wants to donate bags of the Black Currant and oregano nuggets to TEAS you can order from other website which are much cheaper. I think it was pet supermarket that I found the cheapest for under £5 per bag and over £29 is free delivery.

This would be a good idea if a few people wanted to donate a bag or 2 each because you could share an order :)
 
Have sent some food.
If you order from Pet supermarket use the code 15FIRST to get 15% off your first order.
Do you have an Amazon wishlist?
 
I'm pretty sure a private courier wont charge as much as Royal Mail. ;)
 
@furryfriends Excellent Adventure Sanctuary the nuggets I was planning to send you well Harley and Romeo have decided now they like them so I've taken half out of each bag and put them into clear bags for you I've also put in the box some sachets of recovery feed, some unopened 1ml syringes, a bag of supreme science fibafirst hay sticks, some nice new fleece pet blankets and a bag of camomile and dandelion hay for your piggies ;)
 
I can get an endless supply of syringes from work for you. Also have a large unopened Cc our chins and boys don't like the original. Once the banana one comes I will send you a package out :)
