What is the best way to give my piggies Vit C?

[EmilyRose]

I couldn't find a thread that has already got info about this so sorry in advance.

I know their food pellets have vit c in them but is that enough?

Feeding veggies naturally high in vit C is the best way.

You can feed vitamin C by including one high vitamin C veg like, a slice of pepper, a bit of broccoli (all parts) or a sprig of coriander, parsley, dill, basil or mint each day. Please rotate.

There is added vitamin C in good pellets.

If you really wish, you can add vitamin C, but ideally dissolve a bit in water and syringe it for best efficiency. Don't add anything to the water. Give ill piggies extra vitamin C.

They can get a lot of vit c from grass, its not very high in vit c but they do eat a lot when they graze even for a little while.
