Hi!
My 3-year-old boar (S'mores) is producing some odd poops, this has happened before. I will keep him off veggies until his poops seem normal again. I don't think I have any probiotics, what kind can you give piggies? I was also wondering if I should give him some poo soup, his buddy (Pockets) is healthy and so are his poops. How do I make poo soup? (if that is what I should do)
Here is a picture of S'mores poop.

Yes keep him off veg and only feeding hay until 24 hours after his poops normalise.
Weigh him daily while you are concerned about him just to be sure he is definitely eating enough hay and not losing weight.

The guide below covers probiotics and poop soup. You need to take poops from your healthy piggy immediately as they are produced and put into water to soak, then syringe the water to your poorly piggy.

See a vet if keeping him off veg doesn’t work of if you become concerned about the situation
 
Hi! His poops are normalizing, much better shape than before. There is a very odd smell coming from the ones I have seen earlier today. Any advice?
