What it is not

This is a grain-based mix rather than a hay-based diet, and may contain genetically modified soya and traces of nuts per the manufacturer's own allergen note. It is not a replacement for the hay and fresh vegetables a guinea pig's digestion actually depends on.

Why we chose it

It is a straightforward, nutritionally balanced mix at a price that makes sense for a food fed daily, and naming it honestly as a cereal mix rather than implying it is a complete hay replacement matters to us. The fibre figure at 8.0% is reasonable for this style of food, though nowhere near what hay itself provides.

Full description

Not every guinea pig food is built the same way, and this one is worth naming for what it is rather than assuming from the bag: it is a mixed cereal blend of extruded wheat, flaked peas and grains rather than a hay-forward pellet, so it suits a guinea pig fed alongside a separate, generous supply of hay rather than one meant to replace it.

The mix runs extruded wheat, flaked peas, flaked maize, alfalfa meal, soya bean meal, flaked wheat, whole oats, soya bean hulls and soya oil, and it is described as suitable for guinea pigs of all ages. It comes in a 2.5kg bag.

What it is not. This is a grain-based mix rather than a hay-based diet, and may contain genetically modified soya and traces of nuts per the manufacturer's own allergen note. It is not a replacement for the hay and fresh vegetables a guinea pig's digestion actually depends on.

Who it's for: guinea pig owners who already provide plenty of hay separately and want this as the grain portion of the diet, not the whole of it.
