The correct recipe is:
Guinea pigs over 3 months old: unlimited Timothy hay (some alfalfa can be added every week)+special food for guinea pigs+appropriate amount of fruits and vegetables+drinking water every day.
Guinea pigs under 3 months old: alfalfa hay+special food for guinea pigs+proper amount of fruits and vegetables+drinking water every day.
In addition, it can also be mixed with hay such as fruit tree grass and oat grass to change the taste of pigs.
Please don't feed guinea pigs with other animal feed or human food!
Please cherish your little life!
Hay provides essential nutrition for guinea pigs, and contains a lot of fiber, which can not only make guinea pigs grind their teeth, but also keep their digestive and excretory systems normal. A lot of hay should be provided to guinea pigs every day.
There are many things that guinea pigs can't eat, such as bananas, chocolates and peppers. Friends, please make sure that these foods are available to guinea pigs before feeding them. Don't treat guinea pigs as guinea pigs, and don't take them for granted irresponsibly! In addition, some friends will have a misunderstanding, that is, to send something to guinea pigs, which seem to like it very much and think it is the most suitable. In fact, this concept is wrong. Just because guinea pigs like to eat it doesn't mean it won't hurt them or it's okay to eat it. Some things should be given in moderation, such as carrots and Chinese cabbage. It's good for pigs, but eating too much is bad for guinea pigs.
Guinea pigs, like people, have a sense of rejection of things they have never eaten. Therefore, when welcoming the guinea pig, it is best to know its original food first, and prepare some for emergencies if possible. When changing a new brand of feed for guinea pigs, do not change it all at once, but step by step: reduce the amount of the original feed every day and increase the amount of the new feed, otherwise the guinea pigs may refuse to eat because they are not suitable.
Guinea pigs must be supplied with clean water in addition to fresh feed and hay every day. Wild guinea pigs can get the water they need from food, while captive guinea pigs have to drink water to get enough water because they eat feed.
How many meals does a guinea pig eat a day? How much do you eat per meal? Some books suggest two meals a day, while others say small meals and more meals. These are all true. The first thing to consider is the cooperation of the host. If you have a lot of time to get along with it, then a small amount of meals is of course the best; Not at home during the day, have to eat two meals a day; Another is to put a lot of food so that it can eat whatever it wants, but if your guinea pig likes to eat, you should be careful to raise a super fat mouse.
There are two teeth (front teeth) in front of the mouth, which are mainly used to cut off food. The front teeth grow very fast, so you must chew food with high fiber content often, otherwise you will not be able to eat because the front teeth grow too long. Molar teeth will grow too long and enter the brain tissue. So Timothy grass is a must!
