    What To Chew On?

    Best Guinea Pig Nuggets In The Uk?

    Hi all! So I've just been told by another piggy friend, that the Burgess Excell Nuggets aren't very good for piggies - due to the lucerine & molasses. Now, I already knew about the molasses, but thought the benefit of the food outwayed that. However Lucerine stands for Alfalfa! Which I am not...
