31% Beneficial Fibre | Protected Vitamin C | Blackcurrant & Oregano | All Ages
Burgess Excel Guinea Pig Nuggets with Blackcurrant & Oregano are a delicious, high-fibre complementary food specially formulated for guinea pigs of all ages. Made with a carefully balanced blend of vitamins, minerals and beneficial fibre, these tasty nuggets help support your guinea pig's everyday health and wellbeing.
With 31% beneficial fibre, prebiotics and antioxidants, these nuggets help support healthy digestion, skin and coat condition and a healthy immune system. They also contain protected vitamin C, which is essential for guinea pigs as they cannot produce their own vitamin C.
The uniform nugget format helps prevent selective feeding, ensuring your guinea pig receives a consistent balance of nutrients in every bite rather than picking out only their favourite ingredients. Blackcurrant and oregano provide an appealing flavour for extra tasty mealtimes.

Feeding Advice: Good-quality feeding hay and/or fresh grass should make up the majority of your guinea pig's diet and should be available at all times. Burgess Excel Guinea Pig Nuggets should be fed as a small portion alongside hay or grass, with a small handful of suitable leafy greens each day and occasional suitable treats for variety.
Fresh, clean drinking water should always be available.
If your guinea pig is currently eating a muesli-style food, gradually transition to a hay and nugget-based feeding plan over 7–10 days, slowly reducing the old food while increasing the proportion of the new nuggets.
Always monitor your guinea pig's weight to help maintain a healthy body condition. If you are unsure about your guinea pig's individual nutritional requirements, consult your veterinarian.
