as title says really, what are you're piggies fav foods ?

izzy loves tomatoes and baby corn :))

esme loves celery leaves and cucumber ^)

lexi is still not sure about veg but seems to like the celery leaves too rolleyes

how can i make sure lexi is getting enough veg? the others seem to eat it all before lexi can get a chance :0 and i need to get her weight up ?/
 
My piggies all love spring greens and lettuce.

Mars and Wispa are carrot fiends, Buttons and Scruffs have lately decided they don't like cucumber rolleyesand Rocky eats EVERYTHING!

Lexi will get the hang of veggies - mine did, when they first arrived they just nibbled a bit but now they love them. Is she very underweight?
 
Well here goes!

Smokey-Carrots

Bandit-Red peppers

Basil-baby spinach

Ralph-Saffron-anything he can get his paws on

Zanzabar-Corn kernals

Baker-Baby corn

Cooper-Beau-Corn silks

Windsor-Duke-Corn silks

Blade-anything leafy and green

Rajah-Butter lettuce

Prescott-red oak lettuce

Panda-cucumber

Prince-Snow peas

My zanzabar and Baker live together and when Zanzi was stealing most of the food Baker began to lose weight so what i did was let Zanzi eat his half then take him out for cuddles while Baker ate in peace,corn is a weght booster but dont over feed it,plain rolled oats also gain weight quickly but be careful giving it to good weight pigs as it works quickly xx

i dont think so, but to skinny for my liking! i want her to get as much as poss because there is a possibility she is preg :o so i dont want her losing any more weight! she is the same size as my 7 week old sow! :o
 
Any kind of leaf, green peppers, basil, cucumber, baby corn, carrot, chicory, celery - erm can't think of anything else but they only really turn their noses up at tomato.

Africa loves cucumber, tomatoes and types of lettuce the most. He vibrates at almost anything frankly =P

He dislikes turnips(or is it parsnips) whatever is white and looks like a carrot.
 
Mine go mad for anything green and leafy. Cauliflower leaves (but they hate the rest of it), broccoli leaves and stems but not the bushy bit, parsley, dill, coriander, mint, celery, pepper (esp red), carrotts, radishes, watercress, sugar snap peas, green beans, curly kale and on and on! Parsnips (the white carrotts) were a huge success the first two times then were completely ignored, as was baby corn and corn on the cob, but they do love the leaves and silks. Reading this back I think mine just LOVE veg and don't care too much what kind :)) Greedy girls!
 
Cookie likes lettuce, tomato, grass, hay,cucumber, cabbage, greens, curly kale, banana, peas

Maisey likes lettuce, carrots, tomato, grass, hay, cabbage, greens, banana, curly kale

Where there's Cookie that likes cucumber, Maisey is fussy with it. She only eats a little bit of it and then wastes it :)) Cookie doesn't like carrots, but Maisey does.
 
There's very little that my girls have tried and didn't like. The only things they wouldn't eat was celery and parsnips

Both love.. Curly Kale, Spring Greens (and cabbage in general), Carrots, Peppers (any colour), Cauliflower leaves, Baby sweetcorn, Banana, Apple (only very occassionally), Pear, Cucumber

Favourites are watermelon and parsley though (as well as lots of grass!)
