Young food vs Adult food

[tayboonexx]

Hi all,
I have been feeding my boys (approx 5 months) Oxbow Garden Select Adult Guinea Pig food for about a little over a month or so now... I was ill-informed and I didn't realize there was even young Guinea Pig food. I realized now that there is, and piggies should be eating young food until about six months... so my question is, should I change them to young oxbow food until they reach six months + finishing the bag, or should I just keep them on the adult food that they have been on? TIA!

the adult food is fine. There is no need to use the baby food for them at all. It was only created for market demand and isn’t essential at all.

I agree. I had my Ellen at 8 weeks old. She was living with 3 adults at the time and ate the same food that they ate

Both my young boar and when my sow was young didnt get any special young pig food. No alfalfa hay or anything. They are both fine

Thank you! They enjoy their food... so I will just keep them on it! xx
