Supreme stabilise the vitamin C in Gerty at 420mg per kilogram, and at 40–50g a day per adult a 12.5kg sack is around 250 pig-days of feed — enough for a group of four for two months.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe mix is built on extruded wheat, flaked peas and maize, alfalfa and soya, with no added sugar and natural prebiotics. Protein sits at 16%, noticeably higher than Supreme's rabbit mix, which reflects what a guinea pig actually needs rather than being a marketing figure.\u003c\/p\u003e \u0026lt;\u0026gt; \u003ch5\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eStabilised vitamin C at 420mg per kg, the figure Supreme declare — stabilised so it degrades more slowly in the bag than plain ascorbic acid.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e16% protein and 8% crude fibre, formulated for guinea pigs rather than borrowed from a rabbit recipe.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCalcium 0.6% to phosphorus 0.5%, the ratio Supreme publish for this mix.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNatural prebiotics for digestive health, and no added sugar.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSuitable for all life stages, so one sack covers a mixed-age group.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLoose mix format encourages foraging, which keeps a bored group of pigs occupied.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u0026lt;\u0026gt; \u003ch5\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eGroups of three or more guinea pigs, rescues and boarding set-ups.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAll life stages — young, adult and older pigs eat the same mix.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOwners who want the vitamin C level stated in figures rather than described as added.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNot for rabbits, which need a different calcium and vitamin balance — Russel Rabbit Tasty Mix is Supreme's equivalent for them.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNot sensible for one or two pigs: at 40–50g a day a pair would take eight months to finish a sack, by which time the vitamin C will have dropped.
