Wagg Twitch Guinea Pig Nuggets, 2kg

Product Information

It’s important to buy good quality pellet food for your guinea pigs as this will contribute to a healthy pet. Twitch Guinea Pig Nuggets are a complementary feed for guinea pigs. Guinea Pigs should have constant access to fresh hay or grass and water at all times. Hay is essential to provide them with a complete diet and help them maintain a healthy digestion, promote natural tooth wear and provide environmental enrichment. Providing twigs and branches for them to gnaw on from trees such as apple, willow and hazel, can also help keep their teeth healthy and strong. Guinea pig pellets shouldn’t be stored in the fridge but should be kept in a dry, cool and dark place. Avoid placing them next to a radiator or in direct sunlight.

Small Pet Select Timothy Based Guinea Pig Food is an expensive food, but it does contain Timothy hay as its main ingredient. Firstly, it’s good to note that guinea pigs are natural herbivores, so their diet is completely plant-based. If they were in the wild, they’d forage for things like small herbs and grass to eat. Because of their dental needs, as their teeth never stop growing, roughage is essential to their diet and is what they love eating. Chewing on some roughage is good for their dental health, but also provides them with a natural source of fibre.Timothy Grass Meal, Soybean Hulls, Soybean Meal, Cane Molasses, Wheat Middlings, Sodium Bentonite, Soybean Oil, Salt, Lignin Sulfonate, L-Ascorbyl-2-Monophosphate (Vitamin C), Monocalcium Phosphate, Choline Chloride, Vitamin E Supplement, Zinc Sulfate, Yeast Culture, Hydrolyzed Yeast, Zinc Proteinate, Niacin, Copper Sulfate, d-Calcium Pantothenate, Manganous Oxide, Riboflavin Supplement, Biotin, Thiamine Mononitrate, Magnesium Sulfate, Copper Proteinate, Vitamin A Supplement, Sodium Selenite, Manganese Proteinate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Folic Acid, Vitamin D3 Supplement, Cobalt Carbonate, Vitamin B12 Supplement, Calcium Iodate Vitamin A 23,500 iu, Vitamin D3 1,700 iu, Vitamin E (alpha tocopherol acetate) 95 mg, Vitamin C (ascorbyl monophosphate) 300 mg, Iron Sulphate Monohydrate 30 mg, Calcium Iodate Anhydrous 2.5 mg, Cupric Sulphate Pentahydrate 25 mg, Manganous Oxide 48 mg, Zinc Oxide 34 mg, Zinc Chelate 166 mg, Antioxidant You may notice that some of the brands called them “pellets” and others call them “nuggets” but they both refer to dry guinea pig food.
