Little One Sticks For Guinea Pigs, Rabbits And Chinchillas With Vegetables - 2x60g

Little One Sticks For Guinea Pigs, Rabbits And Chinchillas With Vegetables - 2x60g is a pack of two vegetable sticks from Little One for guinea pigs, rabbits and chinchillas.

Key Features

• Two sticks per pack: 2x60g in the pack, so there is one to give now and one to keep.
• Dried vegetable: less sugar than the fruit version, which makes it the better everyday choice of the two.
• Something to work at: a stick takes longer than loose food, which is half the value of giving one.
• For guinea pigs, rabbits and chinchillas: made for these species rather than for the shelf in general.

Giving One

• Wedge it between the bars or hang it so the animal has to reach up and work at it. A stick lying on the floor gets finished in one sitting.
• One stick at a time. Two in a pack is two separate occasions, not a double portion.
• Take out whatever is left before it gets buried in bedding.

Good To Know

• A stick is a treat, not a meal. It goes on top of hay and the daily complete food, not instead of them.
• Cereal-bound sticks are among the sweeter things on this shelf, because the grain has to be held together with something. Read the ingredient panel on the pack if your animal needs to keep sugar down.
• Dried vegetable is still not fresh vegetable. Keep the daily greens fresh and let this be the standby.
• Sticks of this kind are usually formed around a thin wooden core. Take the bare core out of the cage once the coating has been eaten off it.
• Introduce a new treat in a small amount and watch the droppings for a day or two before giving more.
• Humidity softens a stick. If one has gone limp or smells musty, throw it out rather than putting it in the cage.
• Keep the pack closed and dry, away from heat.
