Burgess Excel Mint Guinea Pig 1.5kg is a high fibre nugget food for guinea pigs, flavoured with mint to keep even fussy guinea pigs interested, formulated with vets and nutritionists to supplement a diet built primarily around hay and fresh grass. Burgess is a muesli free company on principle, since research has shown muesli style mixes encourage selective feeding, where an animal eats the tasty high sugar pieces and leaves the fibrous, genuinely important parts behind, which increases the risk of dental disease, obesity and gut problems. These nuggets remove that risk since every mouthful has the same balanced nutrition.
Good quality hay or fresh grass should make up the majority of a guinea pig's diet and be available at all times, with a small daily portion of nuggets alongside it plus a small handful of leafy greens, following the Excel feeding plan rather than feeding nuggets as the main event. Guinea pigs need a reliable dietary source of vitamin C, which these nuggets are enriched with, since they cannot produce it themselves. Free delivery on all orders over 49 euro. Orders under 49 euro have a delivery charge of 6.95 euro. We deliver anywhere in the Republic of Ireland.
