Quality Recommendation : CAUTION
The Oxbow Garden Select Adult Guinea Pig Food is not intended for young, active, pregnant, or nursing guinea pigs. At only 12% protein, it is below our recommended levels and therefore it may be fine for geriatric guinea pigs, but there are higher protein foods that will serve your little piggy better. If you choose to feed this, please supplement with additional protein sources.
