Need some help asap on this please.
Is there any hay pellets or solid blocks of hay that are suitable as an alternative to loose hay, that would be healthy for the guinea pigs to live off? (As well as regular pellets and veg.)
Long story short - Got guinea pigs on Saturday. Using towels and fleece as bedding due to a known allergy to sawdust/woodchip. Had a very severe reaction to the sawdust that was in the box bringing them home and only just escaped a hospital stay.
Now having a very unexpected, and rapidly worsening, allergic reaction to the hay. (spent half my life in and around hay bales on a farm!)
It has been decided that they will have to go back and we are all heartbroken. For all of the 4 days they've been here they are very much part of the family and loved. Frustratingly, they are not the source of the problem, but their food is. Hence a desperate last attempt at finding a solution.
TIA.
