Becky's Sample Stones Diet
This sample diet shows what Becky feeds a group of her pigs and how she ensures the calcium/phosphorus ratio is appropriate for slowing the formation of calcium carbonate stones.
Becky notes:
"These amounts are for all five pigs. They seem to eat approximately the same amount of food and all seem to eat some of everything.
"In addition, they get wheat grass when I get to that particular store and if it looks good, I'll get them some dill. Dill has very little in terms of any of these elements so I didn't include it. It wouldn't have changed the numbers by much.
"I think what most surprised me was the amount of Vit. C they're getting. Everyone is so worried about this, but once you do the numbers, you see that they're getting plenty of C."
