Question
If i am going to buy 2 guinea pigs, how many water bottles do i need??!
How bout hay racks or fruit bowls?
2 or 1?

Answer
You will need 1 6" food bowl to put guinea pig pellets in
Fruit should be given sparingly at a teaspoon a day. A guinea pigs main diet consists of hay and vegetable.
Hay should be available unlimited as Guinea pigs are natural grazers and hay will help their digestive tract work
Go to my websites feeding page for a feeding guide

You should provide a drinking bottle made for guinea pigs about the size of a bicycle drinks flask
Water should be changed daily and always be available
It is always a good idea to by a guinea pig multi vitamin supplement
Hagen does one called Vitasol i use it, it is available in the USA and UK as it is a USA company.
