Oxbow Simple Rewards Oven Baked with Carrot & Dill Small Animal Treats, 3-oz bag

My guinea pig used to absolutely LOVE the oxbow simple rewards. Then they changed the shape and formula. From talking to their service reps the shape was changed to supposedly preview breaking up in the bag but in all the years I used them I never had that problem. Anyway I could live with the shape change and I assume my guinea pig would too. They also seemed to have removed the minute amt of garlic from the recipe. I'm not sure if it's that or some other formulaic change they won't mention but my guinea pig _refuses_ to eat these. I can leave them sitting their for days. I can break them up. I can soak them in a little warm water to soften them. And in all cases he completely ignores them. My guinea pig used to absolutely LOVE the oxbow simple rewards.

The waste of money is bad enough but now I have to try out lots of new treats until i find one that is both healthy and he likes. … more

My Guinea Pigs absolutely loved these until Oxbow changed the shape/formulation. Oxbow says they didn’t change ingredients but just changed the shape so they would be less susceptible to breakage during transport. Something has changed because my Guinea Pigs loved these treats before, but when I give them the new treat version they show lack of interest... continuing to beg for another treat instead. It’s been a couple weeks now and they barely eat them. They are hard and have no scent. I’m really, really disappointed. PLEASE go back to the original!

Not sure what all the complaints are about these but I’m here to tell ya, my guinea piggies love them! At first, they were skeptical at how they smelled but once they took a bite they were sold and couldn’t get enough of them! I can tell they enjoyed the awesome flavor and definitely appreciated all the nutrients they received from them. I trust Oxbow brand 100% with the health and well-being of my animals and they have always been very visible and transparent when comes to the ingredients they use in their products. Oxbow is incomparable to other brands out there. Oxbow brand labeling says it all. Every night before their bedtime my guinea piggies look forward to a different flavor.

Our bunnies really like their treats, our female (Willow) really loves all of the flavors of treats they get. Our male (Waffles) is not a fan of this flavor prefers the banana apple flavor, but he is a VERY picky eater.

My guinea pig LOVED Oxbow treats...that is until they changed them. He won't even touch them now. He HATES these new ones. Please bring back the original treat.

Idk what the heck they put in these treats to make them SO desirable but all my rabbits go completely nuts for all these oxbow treats! Great great buy!

At first my guinea pigs did not seem too interested in these treats, but now they greet me every morning waiting for their treat and vitamin C tab! They don't have a weird smell, in fact they smell just like dill. Will be buying again!

I used to buy bags and bags of these treats in every different flavor. My Guines Pigs loved them. Just hearing me open the drawer where I kept them was enough to send them into squealing fits. Actually cracking open the container so they could smell them sent them out of their minds. Then there was some genius update to the formula/recipe. Now every flavor is a scentless, hard tack biscuit more suited to survival rations than a flavorful treat. My guinea pigs turn up their noses and refuse to go near. I scour local pet stores looking for packages of the original biscuits. Once those suppplies run out I won’t be purchasing anymore

My bunnies used to LOVE these. Now they won't touch them. Why did they change them? Bring back the old recipe & I'll start buying them again.

My guinea pigs LOVED the original treats. But out of no where Oxbow decided to change the recipe, and didn't even rebrand the packaging to let us know. I have auto-ship and just expected to receive the same treats I always have. Not only are they thicker, harder, and have a hole in the middle; but they no longer smell the same either. The original one smelled like dill, now it just smells like molasses. My girls were so disappointed when I tried giving them these treats. I used to be able to break off smaller pieces easily, but now if I want to give my special needs piggie a treat, I have to use a mortar and pestle to crush it up for her.
