I have a Mulberry tree, and I wanted to know if my pigs can eat the leaves. If they can, how much can they eat?
Also, how many dandelion flowers can they eat? When dandilions start showing up, I was thinking about making the pigs an edible bouquet or something.
 
Not sure about the mulberry leaves, but feed the dandelions in moderation. My pigs have gotten diarrhea before when fed too many flowers. The dandelion leaves though, are a big hit for my pigs.
 
They can eat mulberry leaves, branches and fruits (the fruits should be fed occasionally as a treat due to being too sweet), and the leaves and branches are particularly good (more so than other trees) at keeping their teeth in good shape. Mine like them a lot
 
I have a load of dandelion seeds I just have to find a space to grow some dandelions now that winter is here. I have loads of grass and stuff growing for winter food for my piggies. Just have to find some more space on the windowsill in the kitchen to grow the dandelions now! I got the seeds from here Seed Mixes
 
I’ve looked at some images and I think the tree is a white mulberry tree. How many leaves should I give the pigs? The leaves are really big.

And for dandelions, is it just one a day per pig? Or one every other day?
