## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there wheat, oats, spelt or barley in this food?**
A: There is Wheat in it along with Alfalfa and soybean.

**Q: How long will this last 2 guinea pigs ? normal servings**
A: We have 3 Guinea pigs and it lasted about 6 weeks. It says to feed 1/8 cup /Guinea a day but I just throw a handful in their bowl and keep some in it. Always have Timothy grass available

**Q: I was sent this by accident instead of the adult rabbit food, Is it safe to feed my rabbit this?**
A: I know that a guinea pig cannot eat rabbit pellets but a rabbit CAN eat guinea pig pellets.

**Q: How long do cavies need to eat this food? At what age do you switch them to adult?**
A: I switched mine to adult food after about a year.  One source on the internet said they become adults at nine months.  But I did not know that at the time.  I don't think it hurt them to wait a few months after nine, though.
