High Protein Nuggets

[Sophie Baker]

Does anyone recommend any high protein pellets?

They are on an all rounder, but one of them needs a higher protein food. The content they are currently on is 17%, is this the highest they do?

Fussy pig who will eat as much veg and hay as he can get but only eats nuggets when he feels like it - bit worried that the veg etc isn't helping him gain much muscle/weight. Hard to monitor how much grams of nuggets he eats and how much the other pig eats while he is finishing all the hay! Really don't want to split them up, and two bowls isn't an option either

How old is he? If you are really worried (which there is no reason for), you add just a handful of alfalfa hay to the normal hay instead. However, he will flourish even on less pellets with plenty of run time; my own youngsters have not missed out for getting adult portions of pellets and in fine health and on an ideal weight for their age!
