Question
What kind of pellets do i get 4 her? can i use any kind of hay like cow horse hay? is it okay to let them leave out side? how often do i feed her?  

Answer
get guinea pig mixes, you can buy them anywhere, even in tescos. give them plenty of hay from a pet shop. it is ok to put them on a run, as long as there are supervised or have wire across the top, to prevent foxes eating them, or them running away. it is ok for them to live outside. feed her everymorning and top everything up at night. give her a variety of foods and vegetables. at the pet shop are excellent cheap books on looking after a guinea pig, with food requirements. fill the water bottle up every morning. please contact me if you have any further questions.
