Daily food

[JaimeGraceUK]

As long as piggies are fed plenty of hay, some fresh grass and a variety of fresh and dried forages and a variety of veg so they get a balance of nutrition, then it is actually acceptable to not feed pellets at all. However, they are given as a way to ensure all nutrition is met in case the diet is lacking in variety etc.
I only give pellets three times a week in summer (I give them five times a week in winter when they aren’t on grass daily) and instead give fresh and dried leaf forages in the place of pellets

You wouldn’t want to make fruit a major part of the diet in any event

so pellets is like a top up?

Yes, just ensures they get a catch all of nutrients if that makes sense.
Pellets should not be a major part of their diet

[JaimeGraceUK]

is there only one make of grain free pellets?

 

[Piggies&buns]

Yes a lot of hay. You will know they are eating enough when you carry out their weekly weight checks.
50g of a variety of veg per pig per day. Fruit should only be very occasional, no more than once per week
1 tablespoon of pellets per pig per day

There are other makes of grain free. There are some listed on the nugget comparison guide I added in earlier.
I personally use cold pressed grain free grass pellets from the supplier I get my hay from (haybox.club)
