Looking For New Food Ideas.

[loulou8425]

Hey all. I'm new to the forum and I'm looking for ideas to extend my piggies diet. They currently get (not everyday) kale, zucchini, peppers ( all colours) carrot, cabbage, dill, parsley, coriander, celery, romaine lettuce, blueberries, cucumber and unlimited hay and nuggets. I'd like to know what other veggies I can feed everyday? Thanks in advance from cookie and crumble.

Loads of ideas here!

Thanks for such an extensive list. I have never heard of half of this stuff . What do you feed your piggies on a daily basis?

Mine have spinach, rocket, watercress, parsley, corriander, dill, cucumber, a bit of carrot and apple, tomato, blueberries.

Only a small amount of dried food and loads of hay and grass

Is there a specific kind of tomato you feed them kate and are these the things you feed everyday?

I give baby tomatoes, removing the pips, they have half a one each probably twice a week

Spinach is a definite favourite with ours, as is broccoli but we rarely feed the same thing everyday with the exception of cucumber which they absolutely love and normally they have some of that everyday normally. They also really like melon too so I'd give that a try too - remember to remove the seeds - I quarter a whole one and serve in big slices they adore it! Other things I've tried are green beans and baby sweetcorn both they like but not favourites! Have you ever tried ready grass? Mine love that too I put some in with their hay.

I've never tried grass of any sort. They aren't keen on fruit or green beans but I'll try the seeetcorn and spinach . They go crazy for parsley and dill which seem to be a massive favourite. so many things to try.
