Have you checked the label on your guinea pig’s food lately? Take a look, because many guinea pig foods contain molasses or syrup or other sugary ingredients. This extra sugar in a guinea pig’s diet can lead to overeating and obesity. It can also lead to dental problems too.

The average adult guinea pig will require 40-50g/day of Selective Guinea Pig Grain Free. Fresh vegetables should also be provided along with good quality hay and clean drinking water. Please store in a cool dry place.
It’s so nice to see that you made an appropriate pellet for adult piggies as your regular guinea pig food that is advertised as a “balanced adult food” is alfalfa based which means it’s way too rich for adults (only really suitable for pregnant sows and newborns). Only complaint I have is the bag, it should be in zip lock form so we can keep the rest of the pellets fresh 🙂
Response from Supreme Petfoods
Thanks for your review Maria, we really appreciate your feedback!
While alfalfa hay is suitable for baby rabbits and guinea pigs, and is often considered too rich or high in protein and calcium for adult pets, by blending alfalfa as part of the overall recipe along with other ingredients, we ensure that the levels in our products are perfectly adjusted so that the final recipe is blended for optimal health.
Alfalfa, when incorporated as part of a balanced formula, provides many benefits such as essential nutrients like digestible fibre, vitamins, and amino acids. It supports healthy digestion, tooth wear, and also helps to support a healthy immune system.
This makes these products 100% suitable for rabbits and guinea pigs of all life stages.
But we also have the Grain Free recipe for pet parents that prefer a Timothy hay-based food, and we are really glad to hear your piggy boys go crazy for it!
We also chose not to include ziplocks in our packs to helps to reduce plastic, as ziplocks make it much harder for bags to be recycled – our current pack is fully recyclable.
My guinea pigs really like this food and it’s full of the best ingredients but a bigger size would make it 5 stars.
I love how healthy these are because I really struggled to find a Timothy hay based pellet option for the piggies which weren’t full of unnecessary, unhealthy extra ingredients. I also use the rabbit version for willow and she also loves them! Basically we’re a big fan of the grain free pellets!
Feeding time is always met with great excitement by my guineas! They just love this food. Not always easy to get hold of though which is the only drawback
Was so pleased to find Supreme have a grain free food for guinea pigs. Since swapping over to this my guinea pigs have bags of energy and have never looked better. Thoroughly recommend!
