Guinea Pig Pels, fortified with added vitamin C, provides Guinea Pigs with a nutritionally sound diet formulated with tasty and nutritious ingredients. Guinea Pig Pellets features a consistent formula to aid digestive health and function, chelated trace minerals for increased bioavailability of zinc, copper, and manganese, and MosPlus for stabilizing the digestive tract. The high- fiber formula eliminates the need for forage, although a wood chew treat should be supplied to keep the animal’s front teeth worn down.
- Fixed Formulation - Ensures consistent, high-quality pellets from bag to bag preventing sudden changes in the diet and maintains digestive health and function.
- Added Vitamin C - Meets dietary needs. Guinea Pigs, like humans and monkeys, cannot synthesize their own vitamin C and depend on a dietary supply.
- Chelated Trace Minerals - The more biologically available forms of zinc, copper, and manganese are added to provide proper levels of minerals for optimum health and appearance.
- MosPlus - Supports the presence of beneficial bacteria and helps stabilize the digestive tract.
- Yeast Culture - Supports a healthy, functional fermentation in the digestive system, promoting fiber digestion.

Guinea Pig Pels is designed specifically to be fed to guinea pigs in accordance with the following suggested feeding program:
New born guinea pigs can consume solid food almost immediately. In its native habitat, the guinea pig’s diet consists of green vegetation and fruits. With Guinea Pig Pels, it is not necessary to feed greens or fruit. The guinea pig eats many small meals throughout the day. Offer Guinea Pig Pels in a self feeder (one they cannot sit in). Provide fresh, clean water at all times.
The guinea pig is best known from a nutritional standpoint because of its requirement for dietary Vitamin C (along with man and monkey).
The suggested feeding program above is intended solely as a guide. The variables of management, environment, and breed may dictate changes in the animal’s dietary requirements.
