Pitch our 4 year old Pig has had problems chewing her parsley last night, she did the I've got something stuck in my mouth thing and managed to spit it out. She's done it before and normally she's ate straight afterwards. But this time she tried again and exactly the same thing happened. We thought she may have some food stuck in her throat but we fed her watermelon and Celery Leaves which she ate perfectly well.

I was hoping it may be a one off and fed her again tonight which Spinach and the same thing happens, she cant seem to chew either the parsley or spinach and after a while of scary looking head movements spits it out...

Again we hand fed her small bits of celery Leaves and watermelon, she was also eating Timothy hay without any visable problems.


We are quite concerned that it could get worse and are planning a visit to the vet tomorrow evening. Does anyone have any experience of this?
