Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: How much daily vitamin C does Timothy Naturals provide?

Ans: Zupreem Timothy Naturals Guinea Pig Food supplies a stable 300 mg/kg of vitamin C in every pellet, ensuring adult guinea pigs receive their daily ascorbic acid requirement without additional supplementation.

Q2: Why is weed-free timothy hay important?

Ans: Weed-free timothy hay guarantees the fiber source is free from harmful pesticides and contaminants, promoting safe digestive health and reducing exposure to toxins in your pet’s diet.

Q3: Can Timothy Naturals pellets replace fresh hay entirely?

Ans: No. Pellets are a balanced supplement – fresh, unlimited timothy hay must remain available to maintain dental wear and gut motility, as recommended by veterinarians.

Q4: How should I transition my guinea pig to this diet?

Ans: Gradually mix Zupreem pellets with the current diet over 7 days, increasing pellet proportion by 25% each day to minimize GI upset and ensure reliable acceptance.

Q5: Is this food suitable for young guinea pigs or pregnant sows?

Ans: No. Timothy Naturals is formulated for adult maintenance. Growing, pregnant, or lactating guinea pigs require higher protein and calorie diets like alfalfa-based formulas.
