How Much Pellets Should I Feed Growing Piggies?

[Lottie M]

Hi, I have two new 8 week old boy guinea pigs and I want to make sure I'm feeding them the right amount of pellets per pig, per day.
How much should they get as they grow?

(They also have unlimited hay and fresh veggies every day)

I believe that young guinea pigs up to 6 months can also have unlimited pellets. Now that my boys are older they get a small handful each x

30g-50g grams a day.

1/8 - 1/4 cup should be fine per day! Try not to give in to all their demands for more pellets because overfeeding on pellets may drive your guinea pigs' attention away from hay.
