is it ok to give the pigs there veggies every other day? it seems like when i give them everyday they have moist poops. but everyother day seems ok on there digestive systems. is it imperative?
 
what veggies are you feeding them? If you are feeding them lots of water based veg then this will cause wet poo's. But they need vit.c every day in one form or another.
 
kale, bell peppers, carrots occasionally, tomato, cucumber occasionally, parsley, celery, cilantro. the pellets i give them have stabilized vitiamin c, and we do have vitamin c tablets we can give if necessary. they show no signs of scurvy.
 
cut back on the tomato, cucumber and celery a bit - give more root and leafy veg, and more hay. they should be back to normal in no time :)
 
maybe, i usually give thme a pretty ample salad that fits on a paper plate. considering it's for 3 it doesnt seem big, but maybe it is. hard to say.
