It looks like a muesli mix which is not recommend. It also includes a lot of hulls and sugar which will act as fillers that the guinea pigs don't need. The best pellets from Oxbow are their garden-select pellets.

The first thing I noticed was cane molasses. Personally I wouldn't use them.

I agree, they are full of undesirable ingredients.

A lot of their new products are a bit questionable, 2 years ago they were bought out by Manna Pro..an agricultural feed company.
As well as the ingredients, I personally won't feed any feeds with holes in the middle. I have seen in my own pigs and in other people's, where these pieces lodge onto incisors and swell, causing tooth breaks, difficulty eating and a lot of distress.
