It's said that the fresh veg should be approx 50g per piggy each day.

i give mine 1 1/2 scoopfulls of pellets in each bowl (2 bowls 1 for each pig)
(scoops from vanish powder oxy action )
and at the end of the day, there is often leftovers so i tip it all in to 1 bowl, and fill the other one with fresh stuff
sunny days they are on the lawn aswell

50 grams. The best thing to do is to weigh it because it most likely wont look like the amount you think it would. If you give them fresh food twice a day, then 25g each in the morning and the same again in the evening (sorry if you've already said, but I don't know how many piggies you have?)

I give mine carrot, bell peppers (all colours), cucumber and trimmed beans regularly and then babycorn, romaine lettuce, broccoli, spinach, celery less regularly - A mixture of these all depending on what looks the best in the shop when I'm buying. We grown basil and parsley at home so they get that sometimes too.

50g was a lot less than what I imagined it to be.
