Baby food - veg based one to begin with?

Have you tried herbs?

Sorry to hear she's not into her veg yet.

Any word from the RSPCA?
 
try scooping out the middle of a cucumber and mashing it and put it in a little shallow dish - she might lap it up :) very tiny grated bits of veg such as broccoli floret and pepper. Just keep trying - maybe put some on the ends of your fingers and see if she will lick it off :)
She sounds a little darling bless her :)
 
No news from the rspca as yet but they didnt call back last time either, the licensing people did and said cage sizes were ok. :( I shall try baby food tomorrow and cucumber tonight. She is lovely really likes to snuggle in to me bless her fingers crossed she likes veggies soon!
 
Has your grass reappeared from under the snow yet? We had two young sows who didn't seem to understand fruit and veg at all, but who knew exactly what to do with grass and edible weeds. I don't know whether it was instinct or if they were weaned in a field. It took a long time for them to develop a more varied diet, but they did gradually improve.
 
yes have been giving her grass since 1st recommended but no interest she seems to hate anything that smells like a vegetable wont eat baby food either 1 very fussy mini pig
 
If she's happy to eat some mashed food, you could start introducing veg by blending it in with the mash. Start with a tiny amount (e.g. 90% mash, 10% veg) and gradually increase the veg, so she is introduced to slightly different tastes with food she is used to.
