Hi,
I was wondering whether it's better to chop all the different veg up and add the right amount into a sort of piggie salad and then store in the fridge in an icecream container and give them a cup per day or to give three different veggies per day and change them around each day? What do most of you do? Currently, I do the latter.
Thanks!
 
We currently give a small piece of each different kind of veg twice a day so they get the same each day :) I suppose it depends on what you find works best for your piggies :)
 
Is this a good diet? I have looked at the ideal diet sticky and came up with this:
Day 1 - pepper, cucumber, spring greens, coriander, lettuce
Day 2 - pepper, cucumber, spring greens, coriander, basil
Day 3 - pepper, cucumber, spring greens, parsley, rocket
(then start again at Day 1)
Carrot, blueberries and apples as treats.
I used to give them spinach and kale but I'm not sure how I would fit them into this diet and I heard they are high in calcium...

Sounds ok to me :D If I were a pig I would happily eat that ^-^ Just be sure to stick with romaine type lettuce rather than iceberg :)

Thanks! Yeah of course, I either give gem, red or romaine lettuce (gem or red if there's no romaine in the shop)
 
I just give mine what I have in the fridge. Tonight it was a few blueberries, celery, carrot, red pepper, mange tout and cucumber. I am going away on Saturday so will leave my piggie sitter a huge Tupperware in the fridge with a selection of little gem lettuce, red, yellow and green pepper, celery, kale, cucumber, carrot and apple.
 
I feed them different things each day, which is available in the fridge. I can only really shop once a week, so I buy the stuff all at once and then they get whatever is closest in date as the week goes by.

Yeah, that's what I'm doing at the moment x
