So i have these veggies ready available alot so could this be a plan ? is it healthy for them


Am - 50g Mix Of Cucumber,Tomato,Romaine Lettuce
Pm - 50g Mix Of Carrot,Broccoli,Cabbage


This with 15g Pellets per day and Unlimited Hay.

This is for two piggies so the values are per two piggies not per piggie.

Sorry for asking so many questions just want to get it right.

Cheers Tommo :)
 
Or Is this ok for the first week ?

Monday , Wednesday , Friday , Sunday - Lettuce,Cabbage,Tomato
Tues , Thursday , Saturday - Cucumber,Broccoli,Carrot
 
I dont mean to sound rude, i can see you just want to do right by your pets, but you are looking into it and worrying too much, just a variety of salad and veggies a couple of times a day will be fine my lovely, don't panic!

And persoanlly, i have a bowl of dry food in my cage readily available to the all 3 pigs at all times and top it up once a day, i dont weigh anything, all of mine are fit and healthy and not over or under weight.
 
Its fine , I'm probably thinking about this to much.

But all the warnings about Ca:p ratio and about getting bladder stones kinda scared me !
 
Just avoid iceburg lettuce, spinach in small quantites, fruit only a couple of times a week and high acidity fruit and veg in moderation.
 
I agree, dont worry too much about it. Although i was the same when i got my first boys! You will soon be confident. Dont be frightened to try a little of something new for a bit of variety. Mine love baby sweetcorn, celery and curly Kale as well as the standard veggies. I offer apple, pineapple, melon etc occasionally too. Mine also have nuggets in all the time and are kept topped up. I have 5 piggies an none are overweight.
Excited for you :<>
