Re: My letter to Safari Pet Centre

Do you live in Arkansas? If not what state do you live in? I am asking because just north of Little Rock, there is one of these Safari pet stores. I don't know if it's a local store, local chain, regional chain or nationwide chain. Curious to find out though.

A cavies main diet consists of #1-unlimited grass hay, #2-the minimum of 1 cup of veggies per pig per day and occasional fruit, #3-fresh clean unlimited water with nothing added and finally #4-pellets.

In response to this guy wanting the pigs to eat pellets more than hay- I would tell him that hay wears down their molars and helps aid in digestion. Pellets do not. Hay does not make them obese. Hay doesn't even have to cost much. They could buy a bale from a local farm/feed supply and keep it in stock instead of feeding them from their "merchandise".

You can most definately sex a pup by the time it reaches the age of 1 week.
