Much-loved by guinea pigs, our hay is bursting with good nutrients that perfectly satisfy their dietary needs and natural foraging behaviours.
Guinea pigs need hay as it provides the fibre that keeps their delicate gut systems moving. It also plays a vital role in dental health by wearing down their ever-growing teeth.
Generally, the best hay for your guinea pig is the one that they eat the most of. Guinea pigs, like humans, have their own preferences. However, adult guinea pigs shouldn't be fed too much alfalfa hays or other hays high in calcium. This is why we provide sample packs, so your piggies can choose their own favourite!
Guinea pigs should have unlimited access to fresh hay, but their diet should also be supplemented with fresh fruit and vegetables. Pellets are also a good addition but are not strictly vital to their diet.

Treats can be offered but you should wait until they have finished all of their normal foods. Otherwise, they can get distracted and it will put them off the most important parts of their diet. You can buy special small animal treats for guinea pigs that are not only tasty but also help wear down their teeth.
