Remember that good quality hay and/or grass should make up the majority of your guinea pigs's; diet and should be available at all times. Guinea pigs should also be fed a small portion of Country Values nuggets, the occasional snack to add variety and encourage emotional enrichment, and a small handful of leafy greens each day. Fresh, clean water should always be available.

If you are currently feeding a muesli style food to your guinea pigs, you should gradually transfer your pets onto a hay and nugget based feeding plan over a period of between 14 and 28 days. You can do this by gradually reducing the amount of muesli and increasing the proportion of nuggets until they have completely replaced the mix.

Always ensure you are monitoring your guinea pigs’ weight to ensure a healthy weight. If you are ever unsure you should seek veterinary advice.
