In the morning my two get 5 pieces of coriander ripped in half to make 10 pieces, 6 chunks of various capsicum, 6 small chunks of cucumber, 6 chunks of celery 3 times a week and 8 pieces of lettuce mix or whatever leaves I have available, small cherry tomato each twice a week and a piece of apple, seedless grape or babana skin once a week.

Night time is when their diet is more variedbut is usually 6 small chunks of whatever coloured capsicum they didn't have for breakfast, some small chunks of cucumber again because they don't drink alot of water, green beans and a rotation of sweet corn, carrot, spinach, parsley, dill, cabbage, kale occasionally, pretty much whatever I have in the fridge. Tonight silverbeet is on the menu as ir was cheap. And of course unlimited hay and 1/8 of a cup of pellets a day.
 
We feed ours this roughly
Morning:
Cucumber
Celery
1/6th of Red/Green/Yellow Bell Pepper (de-seeded)

Evening:
Cucumber
Two Little Gem Lettuce leaves or 10 sprigs Coriander. Twice a week we will swap in cabbage or parsley

We also add in to the above diet carrot, sweet potato, celery leaves and a few other things occasionally
 
Produce here is very seasonal, so my lot tend to get whatever I have been able to buy locally, forage, or was given to us by friends with veg gardens.

They have a few staples (pepper, cucumber, green beans, lettuce) and for example this morning a friend bought round some kohl rabi and a lettuce from her garden, so the pigs got kohl rabi leaves.

We also have food that is fed almost daily but in very small amounts by the girls when they handle their pigs.
This is stuff like apple skin, carrot pieces, and blueberries.
Today the piggies also got some blackberry leaves, which the kids picked for them on the way home from school.
