Little One Snack Vitamin C - 180g

Little One Snack Vitamin C - 180g is a 180g pack of Little One's berry, fruit and vegetable mix, put together around vitamin C.

Key Features

• Built around vitamin C: a mix of berries, fruit and vegetable chosen for the vitamin rather than for sweetness alone.
• Matters most to guinea pigs: they cannot make their own vitamin C and have to take it in from food.
• Mixed textures: berry, fruit and vegetable pieces in one pack.
• 180g pack: the larger of the two vitamin C packs Little One lists.

What It Can And Cannot Do

• This is a treat with vitamin C in it, not a vitamin C supplement. A pig that needs a measured dose needs one from a vet.
• Vitamin C fades. An open pack standing in a warm kitchen for months is worth less than a fresh one, and fresh bell pepper beats both.
• Little One also lists a 160g pack of the vitamin C snack, so compare the two listings before you order.

Good To Know

• Treats are a small part of the day. The complete food and the hay come first, and a snack that pushes those out does more harm than its vitamins do good.
• The fruit in it is still sugar, so a pinch at a time rather than a daily handful.
• Introduce any new treat in a small amount and watch the droppings for a day or two before giving more.
• Dried food picks up moisture fast here. If a pack has gone soft or smells musty, throw it out rather than feeding it.
• Keep the pack closed and dry, away from heat.
