:Does anyone out there know of a guinea pig food that is not alfalfa based?
:My girl got a rather large bladder stone due to the type of calcium it contains, and the vet said to take her off the food. But the constant supply of fresh veggies is getting expensive!
Hi There,
With reference to Timothy based pellets you can visit the
following sites:
---www.oxbowhay.com
---www.americanpetdiner.com
And here, with reference to stones:
---www.veterinarypartner.com
(once you get there scroll down to the Small Mammal Health Series
then see the article "Bladder stones and sludge"
---www.morfz.com/rabrefs.html
(click on the tool bar for bladder stones and sludge...
several articles here)
Some other links:

Best Regards,
Rosalee
P.S. Sorry I didn't "direct link" the pages above. This is my
first time on this board and I am not sure how the system works.
If anyone could assist me on this, I'd appreciate it alot.
(Thanks)
