As far as popular and commercially-available guinea pig pellets go, Kaytee Timothy Complete is one of the better choices, seeing as it doesn't have all those "extras" -corn, seeds, colored crunchies that resemble dry cat food -mixed in. (Stay away from the brands that have all the "extras" in the pellet mix, as they present a choking hazard and are nutritionally inadequate.)

My adult GPs liked the Kaytee Timothy Complete pellet perfectly fine; but then I started boycotting PetSmart and was forced to find pellets elsewhere. It's a good thing, too, because then I found the Oxbow Cavy Cuisine pellet. Oxbow is the best brand available due to nutrient content, freshness, digestibility, and far fewer preservatives. My piggies LOVE the Oxbow pellets and flat-out refuse to eat the Kaytee pellets now.

Go for the Oxbow Cavy Cuisine Timothy-based pellet (for adult GPs) or the Oxbow Cavy Performance Alfalfa-based pellet (for pups & pregnant females). They come in a red pouch, and you can get them for a very reasonable price if you shop around a little. However, if you can't find Oxbow, this Kaytee Timothy Complete pellet is probably your next best bet, given your options.

Update: Thanks to another reviewer on this page for pointing out one of the many toxic preservatives in this pellet. Most people would be surprised to see how many toxins are used as preservatives in the vast majority of pet foods. Please have enough love for your guinea pigs to do some research and find them the best pellet available! Your vet will be able to provide some guidance.

This gives the guinea pigs a balanced diet combined with the Hay and a few treats of various vegetables. All six of our pigs are well cared for.

Buy Kaytee Timothy Complete Treats for Guinea Pigs, 5-Pound Now

This is the first time I've bought guinea pig food for our two new family members. I've bought Kaytee products in the past for other pets so I thought it had a good reputation.

Our pigs seem to like it but really, they don't have a choice do they? I'll try another brand next time and see if there is any difference in their eating habits. For now, it disappears and they are growing.

I have two guinea pigs and they love this food. I changed to jojo's brand because it supposed to be "more natural" and I almost lost one of my guineas. After many trips to the vet(due to severe stomach issues),she barely made it. I went back to this guinea pig food and they are healthy and happy again. The vet told me that this was a good choice because hay is one of the main ingredients and not corn like the jojo's brand.

Update: After reading some comments about the preservatives in this food, I decided to change to the Oxbox pellets. If I cannot find Oxbox produts, these pellets still would be my next choice.

I've been using this product for a while. The pigs like it but def will prefer fresh hay, veggies, and fruits over this. It's basic without extra ingredients that the pigs wont need. (seeds, mystery pellets, etc). Definitely all natural.

I recommend this product as the basic food to give your pigs while supplementing with other veggies, fresh hay and vitamins.
