Oxbow Essentials Adult Guinea Pig Product Highlights

• Uniform pellets prevent selective feeding
• High in fiber for daily digestive health
• Fortified with vitamins and minerals for optimum health
• Formulated with the guidance of top veterinarians and nutritionists

Seventy percent of your guinea pig’s diet should be grass hay. Oxbow offers a variety of hand-selected, high-fiber hays to enrich the life and health of your pet.

Feeding Directions

Mature Guinea Pigs (over 6 months)

Feed 1/8 cup pellets daily in addition to unlimited grass hay. Although Essentials Adult Guinea Pig Food is an excellent complete feed for guinea pigs, unlimited access to fresh grass hay should also be provided. Choose from Oxbow’s Western Timothy, Orchard, Oat, or Botanical grass hays to provide additional natural fiber. Cavy Cuisine Adult Guinea Pig Food is not intended for growing, gestating, or lactating animals. Feed Cavy Performance Young Guinea Pig to guinea pigs requiring a higher level of nutrition.

This product is not intended for growing, active, pregnant, or nursing guinea pigs. We encourage pet owners to feed Oxbow Essentials Young Guinea Pig Food during these stages of life.

Please note that these are guidelines. If your guinea pig is overweight or underweight, please contact your veterinarian or Oxbow for more specific feeding information.
