How many pellets are piggies supposed to have? I used to feed quite a lot but they would never eat them all, so i've started to reduce the amount to about 40g per pig per day (about 2 small handfuls per piggie.) I used to feed 2 BIG handfuls per piggie but iv'e done a bit more research. Some people say 1 spoonful per pig, some say 2 big handfuls, I'm not so sure, could anyone help me out? Thanks :)
What I used to feed to my 2 girls (pellet amount.) (also these are dog bowls lol)

Pellets should be kept limited and the feeding recommendation is one tablespoon per pig per day.

I have just weighed one tablespoon of pellets out and it comes to just 6g

Ooh 6g! That means the bag of piggie pellets will last much longer 😁😁 I was thinking around 15g. Guess each brand will differ though. Which brand do you use?
 
i use science selective grain free. I bought two bags back in October. i don’t anticipate running out and having to buy more until late May
