Too much food

[Crumpylenko]

For some strange reason Crumpy and Lenko have stopped eating carrot and adore Kale, greens and cucumber and so this is what I have been feeding them, all I want to know is can these be dangerous in large amounts or on a regular basis, they seem healthy and they are going to the loo regulary.

PS Have just took my baba's to Just for pets to get their nails clipped and they only charged £3 and this goes into a charity tub, I though that this was a excellent idea, this also done across the stores. Hope this helps8

Don't think these particular foods are dangerous to them. Maybe they're just bored of it and would like a change? My lot are real fussy that way. But probably my fault as I spoil them far too much with different veg!

my 2 have just scoffed a huge bowl of kale, romain, celery, grapes & plum.They sound like a pair of fairy elephants when they jump off the house in the nero 4 onto the base.Later on They'll fling the bowl around the cage untill I give them another snack.

Beware of too much kale, it is pretty high in calcium. Greens I think are usually a type of cabbage, so don't go overboard but daily is fine. Susceptible pigs may find cabbage makes them a little gassy, so watch out for this, but many pigs are fine with it.

I agree with the JayneG, pigs can and do get fed up with certain foods at times. Rotate through as much variety as you can with the basic everyday veggies and that should keep them happy!
