...the grass, and what to feed it etc keeping it all safe for piggies.. Not my forte! Also fudge is single handedly keeping it all short.. Even the edges! So need to give it a wee boost. I have seen people making wheatgrass trays online for their piggies but not sure about the ins and outs of...

Thanks @Wiebke for your reply. yes I found the tips in the feeding guide really helpful. We’ve been back to the vets yesterday as the first antibiotic wasn’t working and Mini is still sneezing lots & not eating apart from a few leaves after syringe feeding. He’s now taking 0.6ml Marbocyl once a...

...The first crop of Timothy grass was quite fine, but the regrowth looks much more substantial so I’m hopeful for the winter. I also tried wheatgrass last year, which grew really quickly, but it went mouldy after the first cut so I had to throw it out. I’d love to hear your hints and tips and...

...him, plus some Avipro. He won't touch any kind of hay (I think possibly his molars are overgrown at this point), and when I offered him wheatgrass today (his favourite) he mouthed it but didn't eat it. His poos are still soft (I've removed all veggies apart from a single sliver of pepper in...

...home with plenty of grass in the courtyard, lol) but I would reccomend going out to a local gardening store and getting a 'Grow Your Own Wheatgrass' kit. Wheatgrass is not only reccomended for your piggie as it has many beneficial nutrients, but it is also a common forage food! My piggie...

...using a old medium sized commercial cage to grow the grass in. Unfortunately, I cannot grow the grass indoors as the cage is too big and the only ways I've seen to growing grass is indoors. Does anyone have do it outdoors? Also is wheatgrass the normal? I think I've seen Timothy somewhere...

I wouldn't recommend sunflower sprouts. When I sprout wild bird mix seeds, I always pick the sunflowers out. Any sprouts from seeds of the grass family are fine. Wheatgrass is quite a favourite with some members.
