Hi,

I was wondering which guinea pig food brand would be higher quality and more nutritious. KMS Hayloft food or Oxbow Organic guinea pig food? And also why that one is better.

Thank You!

KMS and regular Oxbow (Cavy Cuisine) are about the same, now that Oxbow has taken calcium carbonate out of their pellets. They either have not taken it out of their organic guinea pig food, or they haven't updated the ingredients list. In that case, I'd take Cavy Cuisine over the organic stuff. Limestone (calcium carbonate) has been implicated in bladder stone formation, and I'd avoid it if at all possible.
