Simple solution, scatter feed, its the best way to feed nuggets anyway I think. Your pigs will enjoy sniffing through their hay to get to them. Gives some extra enrichment. Put the bowl outside for the hedgehogs struggling to find water in this heatwave

I have two naughty boys and I have to use heavy ceramic ones to stop them tipping stuff over...
I too scatter some of their other food such as pea flakes when I feed them too.

Either a heavy ceramic bowl or scatter the nuggets as has been said.
Both solutions work

For me its better scattering. I only have a 120x60 cage and it creates more room not having a bowl in

I'm glad you have found the suggestions from members helpful. I have merged your threads as others seeing the message would want to know what the suggestions were.

We do ask that you keep everything about one topic to one thread instead of creating new threads as it's much easier to follow for anyone reading

Would the StayBowl work for piggies on fleece, though?
