What Brand Of Natural Yogurt?

[Liane]

The vet has recommend we give Glinda some plain yogurt to help her tummy, but I don't know what to buy. Can anyone recommend a particular (UK) brand that is suitable for piggies?

Please do not give dairy to adult guinea pigs, they are lactose intolerant!
It is much more effective to give probiotics, or even better fibreplex.

Thank you. I did wonder about lactose but I don't eat 'proper' yogurt so I wasn't sure if it had lactose in.

I have fibreplex in my supplies - is this sufficient or is there one that is better?

Fibreplex is ideal and the best thing you can give a piggy with tummy trouble! It also contains probiotics.
