Why We Love It:
- UNIFORM PELLETS = COMPLETE NUTRITION IN EVERY BITE. Oxbow Essentials Young Guinea Pig Food is 100% uniform to prevent instinctual selective feeding and picky eating tendencies of small pets. Unlike muesli mixes which commonly contain ingredients with high amounts of sugar, fat, and simple carbohydrates, Essentials Young Guinea Pig Food is made with nourishing ingredients which are appropriate and beneficial for young guinea pigs.
- SPECIES & LIFESTAGE SPECIFIC. Guinea pigs have different nutritional needs at different stages in life. Essentials Young Guinea Pig Food is formulated to meet the specific nutritional needs of young, growing, pregnant, or lactating guinea pigs.
- MADE WITH PREBIOTICS & CHELATED MINERALS. Essentials Young Guinea Pig Food is made with prebiotics to feed the good bacteria in your guinea pig's GI tract. Chelated minerals are a premium form of minerals which are more efficiently absorbed to support your guinea pig's daily health.
