Feeding Guide

For Guinea Pigs

Care & Advice

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 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 pigs enjoy variety and appreciate the addition of fresh food in their diet several times each week; leafy greens and dandelion leaves are ideal. Providing plenty of space and the company of other guinea pigs is hugely important for keeping your guinea pig happy, as is keeping your pet at the ideal weight.
