Low Calcium Veggies

[LeahsPiggies]

Hi everyone, so my Porche has started squeaking when weeing again, we are hoping to get a vet appointment on Tuesday - obviously due to this I want to have her on a low calcium, balanced diet which means lowering pellets and exchanging it for more fresh veg.

So does anyone have any low calcium but preferably high vitamin C veggies I can add to the piggie shopping list? .. I already know about cucumber, carrot, bell pepper and tomato

Thank you!

Have a look at the sortable food list on Guinea Lynx http://www.guinealynx.info/chart.html#chart Very useful resource

Love and healing vibes to Porche

Mine are on a low calcium diet and I feed:

Coriander
Occasional Dill
Cucumber
Pepper
Celery
Green beans
Small amount of spring greens.

Thank you both - I was feeding celery but heard that was high in calcium! Green beans is an idea .. do you feed this daily @helen105281 ?

Yes but in very small amounts. It was recommended to me by a friend who has done a lot of research into the best diet for bladder pigs.

Ok thank you .. I am not sure how much of everything to feed.. it's quite confusing. The chart is very helpful though - typical that bell pepper is one of the best yet she is my only pig who won't touch it!
