[rinn123]

Here is where I found the ingredient list ihttps://mealberry.com/catalog/little-one-grass-food-for-guinea-pigs-green-valley/

I'm looking for a grain free pellets for my piggies as I find that their poops get soft when they have pellets with grain. I've tried sherwood and bunny pellets but sometimes they run out of stock so I'm looking for other options too.
I'm wondering if this is a good pellet to feed? It doesn't just contain pellets but it does contain some dried herbs n dried fruit which I can actually pick out if needed.

They're fairly high in calcium, and they don't say what the calcium source is. If it's limestone (calcium carbonate), that could be a problem.

Also, pigs need a plain grass pellet (usually timothy) without other additives. Dried fruit is high in sugar, which they don't process well.
