Many research facilities would like to offer their guinea pigs hay or alfalfa cubes but are restricted from doing so mainly because of the high risk of introducing unknown contaminants. Bio-Serv has developed a solution to this problem by certifying (contaminant screen) Timothy Cubes for the safety of your animals. Bio-Serv’s Timothy Cubes eliminate the inconvenience of bringing in hay which can clog drains and involves considerable clean-up time.

Features and Advantages:
Timothy hay is a excellent source of fiber for guinea pigs

High fiber aids in digestion and maintenance of a healthy GI Tract

Each cube contains 100% sun-cured timothy hay. Other hay cubes contain a mixture of less desirable alfalfa and timothy hay

Feed as routine supplement for a great source of enrichment as well as for therapeutic effects

Eliminates the mess of bringing in hay saving time and labor costs

Can be gamma irradiated to eliminate the risk of bringing in unknown pathogens that can affect your animals and valuable research data
