## Questions & Answers

**Q: What role does fortified food play in the overall nutrition of guinea pigs?**
A: Your guinea pig requires daily amounts of essential vitamins and minerals to stay healthy and happy. Our premium, proven Essentials formulas contain 100% of your guinea pig’s daily recommended vitamins and minerals to support whole-body health.

**Q: I currently feed a mix. Why is it important to provide uniform nutrition to guinea pigs?**

**Q: What makes Oxbow Essentials Adult Guinea Pig special?**
A: All Oxbow foods are formulated with the help of leading exotics veterinarians and nutritionists. Essentials Adult Guinea Pig was the first timothy hay-based food on the market and continues to set the standard in premium nutrition for guinea pigs.

**Q: What is the shelf-life of Essentials Adult Guinea Pig?**
A: Essentials Adult Guinea Pig has a guaranteed shelf life of 2 years unopened. We recommend storing this product in a dry, climate-controlled area away from direct sunlight and using within 60 days of opening.

**Q: What is the recommended transition plan when switching to Oxbow Essentials Adult Guinea Pig?**
A: Transition gradually when switching your pig's food. Week 1, mix 3 parts current food with 1 part new. Week 2, mix 2 parts current food with 2 parts new. Week 3, mix 1 part current food with 3 parts new. Week four, feed Oxbow exclusively.
