Diuretics

[BellasMummy]

Someone a little while ago let me know that Dandelions were Diuretics, which was very helpful as it explained why my pigs had been drinking such alot. I immediately cut down on the dandelion leaves and their drinking went back to normal.
So I was wondering what other foods are diuretics? sometimes my girls seem to drink excessively and I'm always worried that it could be a UTI again but it seems to come and go so different foods might explain it?

Thanks

Does anyone know? it would really help me and the piggles out

I think celery is a diuretic as well, but hopefully someone will confirm that?

Thanks, hopefully someone else might know some more. I want to keep a list so I can refer back if I notice mine are drinking more again.
Although this time looks like Paislee might have a UTI again

Have you tried pearl barley & boiling it up to get the liquid to give her?

Instructions how to make it on there. It may soothe things but see a vet as well.

I hadn't heard about that before so thankyou The water bottle is going down very quickly but I haven't really seen either of the pigs at the bottle alot. I want to determine which pig it is before treatment.
Thanks
