Guinea pigs do well when they are on a schedule. When you feed around the same time each morning it trains the guinea pig to be up and ready for you to come and feed them. This can help establish a bond between you and your guinea pig. Make sure you don’t feed at the exact time each day, however. You don’t want them adjusted to a set time or they may get upset or overly anxious should you feed them at a different time. When feeding your cavy, dump the food from the day before especially if it’s wet and picked over. Fill his food dish with the suggested serving as listed on the guinea pig food bag. You can check the food and refresh it in the evening. Give your guinea pig a handful of hay as well and check his water to ensure it’s fresh. For additional information, ask your vet clinic Bend, OR.
