Guineas are afraid of food dishes?!

[shannon0716]

My Guineas are 8 weeks old and they have outgrown their starter food and water dishes but refuse to use the new ones I bought them. If I fill the old ones they dive right in, same with the water. I got the new feeders a few days ago and I would appreciate any advice on this! They would rather starve than use them!

shake the feed on the ground and put your new and old waterers beside each other don't refill original but keep fresh in new one. They'll get it after awhile.
