Hi everyone!

Has someone seen the woodlands guinea pig nuggets in Pets@Home?
We have seen it today, its in a yellowish-brownish paper bag with a plastic window, 2kg for 4.99, and there is a grain free nuggets as well for similar price (but it wasn't there only the price sing)

I can't find on their website, and I think this is a p@h brand (I couldn't find anywhere else), so I was wondering does it worth the money, the testing?

I've not seen these ones, sounds interesting. I have seen other products in the woodlands range but only at PAH so maybe it is their brand? I went in there at the weekend and the range of nuggets for pigs seem to have decreased. Its the only place I can get Natures Feast (other than online) but I have not seen it in there lately. :hmm:
 
Yes it is their own brand, to be honest I tend to avoid own brand stuff as it's often just a lot of fillers. I don't know what's in that particular brand as I can't find it on their website either so no idea what's in it.
 
Interesting to read as i was wondering about the woodland nuggets too.As i am looking for the lowest calcium level in a good quality pellet. So far it looks like oxbow. But i do wish they would sell sherwood over in the uk.

No i did try a version of the woodlands my girl pig went off of it and i didnt want to keep buying 2 brands so put them both on the selectives gradually introduced it, it can upset their digestive system if done suddenly

I have a 15kg bag of Zooplus JR farm grain free- and they don’t really like it arrrggghhhhh!
 
I do see them nibbling it at times but they don’t get stuck in like they do with two other brands I bought. Why did I buy such a massive bag!? If there was a rescue near me I would just donate it I think.

Sounds good to me, except for the feeding guide/amounts. 100g daily for an adult guinea pig! Really?
