Anyone have any recipes they make for their piggies either for treats, daily add in, or whatever. I have one but would love to do have more to give my piggies

Thank you

The very best treats you can give them are bits of herbs and fruit.

Well that's a relief, I was wondering what to expect based on the topic title. ;)

Although our vet does pop our piggies into a casserole pot to weigh them....

Sorry no recipes here, just pellets, hay and veggies.

Yes, the best treat would be a cube of watermelon or apple. I have to say that I am curious about the recipe you have. Can you share it? And where did you find it?

Yep I am interested in what the recipe is as well.

Cube of watermelon? I am having to explain to my wife that she cant keep putting in huge chunks of watermelon in about 1/15th of a melon sometimes.

One inch cubes, or somewhat larger slices of rind only, with the skin cut off.

Watermelon is wonderful! I love it, Charlie the dog loves it, and Lacey the piggy loves it! As soon as I start slicing, Charlie is underfoot doing circles. Then Lacey starts wheeking so loud I think the neighbors can hear her! They each get just a small cube but that’s the high point of their day.

Based on this I tried Watermelon last night and even my picky eater, who doesn't like anything new, ate it right away. Surprised the heck out of me.

As bpatters and ItsaZoo says though keep the amount small.

We had issues last week when the wife was putting big slices in while I was at work, we ended up with lots of smooshy poop for a few days.
