Food: Hamiform full meal is especially recommended for guinea pigs. His original and adapted presentation avoids a selective sorting of the components he prefers, often a source of food imbalance. Hamiform, by its formulation, ensures by itself the complex needs of the guinea pig (vitamins C, A, D and E, the essential amino acids, arginine, cystine, methionine, tryptophan). It is tested daily at the Le Closeau Breeding Center and approved by our little companions.

Important: To properly choose the food of your guinea pig, you must first understand that to live, the guinea pig needs daily intake of Vitamin C because it does not synthesize it. In addition, it is essential to bring him this vitamin C in sufficient quantity because otherwise your little companion can quickly become deficient with the consequences that this implies (paralysis of the rear train, loss of fur …). That’s why It’s important to make sure you know the right amount of Hamiform feed of your pet. «
