Dried herbs such as parsley, camomile and ribwort plantain, as well as dried meadow greens such as dandelions, fennel and marigold, are among the favourite foods for guinea pigs. Maxi Zoo also has a wide range of relevant products. If you feed fresh plants, you will need to be careful: Not all types can be processed by your little pets. Some are even toxic for these animals, for example various types of lilac, juniper and ferns. Crushed branches, on the other hand, are generally well accepted and are particularly healthy for your guinea pig’s teeth. Twigs from apple and pear trees as well as hazelnut bushes are particularly well tolerated.
If you order food for your guinea pig, you should also put dry food mixes into your shopping basket. These will supply your animal with important nutrients and building materials and they are also rich in fibre. Dried grasses, herbs, cereals and vegetables are, for example, contained as ingredients. Colourants and preservatives are often not added. Snacks made from dried vegetables and other ingredients are suitable as additional dietary supplements.
