Ratewatchers

Sample Meals for 2 Guinea Pigs.

A second meal of fresh food will be needed in addition to this, as well as a constant supply of Meadow Hay, a small amount of dry food (weight dependent on nutritional values) and fresh water. Either give Meal 1 (for example) once in the morning and again at night or Meal 1 (for example) in the morning and another at night- they are all balanced so can mixed and matched. With Ratewatchers there is no such thing as 'bad foods', only 'badly balanced diets'.
