I have had two female degus for about 3 years now and haven't usually had any problems with what I'm feeding them, but due to a communication error I have ended up with sunflower seeds and budgie seeds (as shown in the photo) and was just wondering w
Thanks for your question about your degus, and thank you for the photos - they are very helpful. I would not recommend feeding either of these products to degus, as they can lead to dental disease and gastrointestinal distress. Degus are meant to have a high fiber, low nutrient diet, so the majority of their diet should be hay. You can also provide them with a small amount (approximately 1 tablespoon/degu/day) of chinchilla pellets, which are typically alfalfa based. In addition to this, you can also add dark leafy greens (approximately 1 cup/degu/day). Examples of these include leaf lettuces, cilantro, parsley, arugula, dandelion greens. I do not recommend feeding any dairy, sugar, fruits, muesli, or seeds to degus. I hope this gives you a place to start, and thanks for using Boop by Petco.

Hello and thank you for using Boop by Petco. Unfortunately, when I try to enlarge the photo, it is too pixilated to see the fine print and learn what it is. I would recommend to compare the ingredients. If it's a dusk free bedding, it's likely fine to use it. Please write again if you have any questions!

We don't have much money to buy expensive dog food, plus we're taking care of three dogs. I'm trying to find a better food for my dogs. Can you recommend the best one for pet owners on a tight budget. Also Koko sheds a lot, like a lot. Is their any w
Thanks for using Boop by Petco! A very good diet that is also accessible and not expensive is the Purina pro Plan shredded diets. You can get them at your local pet store. While it may not be an emergency, it is still ideal to have him checked for the bites and the itchiness. It is also very important to start a flea and tick preventative like Frontline plus. He may be itching due to allergies. It really comes down to figuring out what is causing his allergies so that they can be treated or the specific allergen avoided. A secondary infection is likely and also needs to be addressed. There are many things that can cause allergies though in most cases they can be broken down into 3 big categories: flea, food and environmental allergies. Allergies are usually worked up in a stepwise fashion starting with flea allergies as this is the easiest and cheapest to take care of. If not on a flea preventative, then it would be a good idea to get started on one. If already on one then it would

Hi, I have three adult Purebred American Staffordshire Terriers what would you say is the best affordable Dry food for them?
Hello. You have quite a very handsome group of pups! The best dog foods most vets will recommend are those made by Purina, Hill's Science Diet & Royal Canin. I personally feed mine Purina One True Instincts. These may not be the very cheapest foods out there, but they are definitely more reasonable than the incredibly high priced boutique foods which are no better than the basics. Hope your guys do well & thanks for using Boop by Petco.

My mom got my Fluff guinea pig from the store. It has stuff I don’t know what it is. It has peanuts with the shell to. My sister told me they can’t have the internet said they can but not to many. It has something I can’t identify. It’s pebbles are s
Thanks for reaching out about Fluff and including photos. Peanuts and other seeds are not healthy, too high in fat and low in nutrients. Pellets can be used as a supplement, but free choice to a good quality hay (timothy, not alfalfa) is the primary diet for guinea pigs. Since their teeth (incisors and cheek teeth) grow throughout life, hay is helpful on wearing the teeth down as it requires lots of chewing. It is also low in calories, which is good. The diet can be supplemented with 1/4 c of fresh vegetables. Good luck.
