Bunny Nature CaviaDroom Junior is a guinea pig food for young guinea pigs in the growth phase up to approximately 6 months. The food combines a broad plant base with 63 plants and herbs from permanent grassland, a fiber-rich structure, and stabilized vitamin C. This makes this food practical for owners who want to provide young guinea pigs with a clear daily foundation.
At DRD, when it comes to junior guinea pig food, we focus primarily on growth, fiber, vitamin C, hay intake, and practical feeding reliability. Young guinea pigs are still developing and require a diet that complements unlimited hay, daily vegetables, and clean drinking water. CaviaDroom Junior aligns perfectly with this, featuring a broad natural composition and a texture that encourages nibbling.
✔ Junior guinea pig food for young guinea pigs up to approx. 6 months
✔ With 63 plants and herbs for natural variety
✔ With stabilized vitamin C, especially important for guinea pigs
✔ High-fiber texture, suitable for many small meals
✔ Calcium content tailored to young guinea pigs in the growth phase
✔ Practical for owners who want to clearly build up daily feeding
Young guinea pigs grow quickly and are also true fiber eaters. They have many small eating moments throughout the day, and hay remains the foundation. CaviaDroom Junior has been developed for this junior phase and combines a broad plant base with a fiber-rich structure. This aligns well with the natural eating behavior of guinea pigs: nibbling, chewing, and regularly consuming small portions.
The food contains stabilized vitamin C. This is important because guinea pigs cannot produce vitamin C themselves. A consistent source of vitamin C through the daily diet helps to establish a solid foundation. In addition, daily vegetables remain valuable for variety, hydration, flavor, and natural absorption.
The composition with 63 plants and herbs gives this food a distinct Bunny Nature signature. This feels good for owners: you are not feeding a plain kibble, but a junior food with plenty of plant-based variety and a clear role in the daily guinea pig diet.
This food is specifically aimed at young guinea pigs. For adult guinea pigs, after the junior phase, it is preferable to choose an adult guinea pig food, such as a suitable CaviaDroom variant for adult animals.
Bunny Nature operates with a free-offer philosophy: fill the food bowl and only refill it when it is empty. Many owners also appreciate having a practical guideline, for example to monitor appetite, growth, and condition. Therefore, we provide a handy feeding chart below as a reference.
A good daily routine is clear and manageable: unlimited hay as a base, daily vegetables, CaviaDroom Junior as junior food, and clean drinking water. This provides your young guinea pig with structure, fiber, vitamin C, and plenty of opportunities to chew.
The correct amount depends on age, weight, growth, activity, and how much hay and vegetables your young guinea pig eats. Use the table below as a practical starting point if you prefer to weigh the ingredients.
| Weight of young guinea pig | Daily portion guideline per guinea pig | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
| Up to approx. 500 grams | approx. 25–35 grams per day | Monitor growth, appetite, and hay intake closely. |
| Approx. 500–900 grams | approx. 30–45 grams per day | Practical guideline for many young guinea pigs. |
| From approx. 900 grams | approx. 35–50 grams per day | Gently tune in to growth, activity, and physical condition. |
This guideline is intended as a reference. Unlimited hay and daily vegetables remain the primary focus. A young guinea pig that is growing well, eats plenty of hay, has normal droppings, and is lively usually settles comfortably into the routine.
Guinea pigs are social animals and should be kept with other guinea pigs. Therefore, we calculate below based on 2 guinea pigs. For a young guinea pig living with an adult guinea pig, add up the daily portions for both animals separately.
| Situation | Daily portion for 2 young guinea pigs together | 600 g lasts about | About 1.5 kg goes with it |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 young guinea pigs, lower guideline | approx. 50–60 g per day combined | approx. 10–12 days | approx. 25–30 days |
| 2 young guinea pigs, average guideline | approx. 60–90 g per day combined | approx. 7–10 days | approx. 17–25 days |
| 2 young guinea pigs, higher guideline | approx. 90–100 g per day combined | approx. 6–7 days | approx. 15–17 days |
Calculation aid: volume in grams ÷ total daily portion for 2 guinea pigs = number of days. If your guinea pigs differ significantly in age, weight, or food requirements, use a guideline for each animal and add the daily portions together.
Guinea pigs cannot produce vitamin C themselves. Therefore, vitamin C is an important part of their daily diet. CaviaDroom Junior contains stabilized vitamin C, so the junior food helps to establish a solid daily foundation.
In addition, daily vegetables remain important. Consider suitable types of vegetables that your guinea pig tolerates well. By logically combining hay, junior food, and vegetables, you build a clear daily routine in which fiber and vitamin C both have their place.

This composition is built around a broad plant base of permanent grassland. This suits guinea pigs well, as they naturally eat a lot of fiber-rich plant material and have many small feeding moments spread throughout the day. Ingredients such as carrot pulp, whole corn plant, lignocellulose, flaxseed, Jerusalem artichoke leaf, herbs, and chicory inulin further supplement the fiber-rich base. The extra plants, herbs, and vegetable components make CaviaDroom Junior a varied junior food that fits well alongside unlimited hay and daily vegetables.
Crude protein 14%, crude fat 2.8%, crude fiber 20%, starch 6.1%, crude ash 8.5%, calcium 0.9%, phosphorus 0.45%.
Additives: vitamin A 12,000 IU, vitamin D3 840 IU, vitamin E 72 mg, vitamin C 600 mg, copper sulfate pentahydrate 7.2 mg, calcium iodate anhydrous 1.0 mg.
This analysis is consistent with a high-fiber junior food for young guinea pigs. The 20% crude fiber aligns well with the role of CaviaDroom Junior as a daily diet alongside unlimited hay. The 14% protein content, 0.9% calcium content, and added vitamin C are suitable for the growth phase, during which young guinea pigs may require extra care when being fed. Hay remains the primary source of fiber; additionally, the junior food provides a complete and easily dosable daily base.
Switch gradually when changing food. Mix the new food with the old food for the first few days and gradually increase the proportion of CaviaDroom Junior. This allows your young guinea pig to get used to the smell, taste, and texture.
During the transition, pay close attention to appetite, hay intake, droppings, and growth. If you notice clear changes, build up more slowly or seek advice from a guinea pig-specialist veterinarian.
CaviaDroom Junior is intended for the junior phase up to approximately 6 months. After that, you gradually switch to a suitable adult guinea pig food. This ensures the food remains aligned with your guinea pig's life stage.
Is CaviaDroom Junior suitable as daily food for young guinea pigs?
Yes, CaviaDroom Junior is intended for young guinea pigs up to approximately 6 months. Always combine it with unlimited hay, daily vegetables, and clean drinking water.
Can I offer CaviaDroom Junior freely?

Until when do I feed CaviaDroom Junior?
This junior variant is intended for use up to approximately 6 months. After that, you can gradually switch to adult guinea pig food, such as a suitable CaviaDroom variant for adult guinea pigs.
Why does the math aid calculate with 2 guinea pigs?
Guinea pigs are social animals and should be kept with other guinea pigs. Therefore, we calculate the consumption indication based on 2 guinea pigs.
Why is vitamin C important for young guinea pigs?
Guinea pigs cannot produce vitamin C themselves. Therefore, vitamin C is important in their daily diet. CaviaDroom Junior contains stabilized vitamin C as a solid base.
Is extra vegetables still necessary then?
Yes, daily vegetables remain important for variety, natural absorption, and the daily eating rhythm. Choose vegetables that your guinea pig tolerates well and introduce new types gradually.
How do I store CaviaDroom Junior?
Store the food in a cool, dry, and tightly sealed place. Check the smell and texture before feeding.
