I guess I’ll keep trying with them don’t want them going to waste. I did try them with baby plum tomatoes wernt keen on them either
Tomatoes are acidic (so arent recommended to be fed often anyway) so the acidity may be what is putting them off

I’ve heard green beans are high in calciumHave you read the feeding guides that were linked for you earlier this month?
They will tell you what foods can safely be fed daily.
Mine get a romaine or red cos lettuce leaf daily.
Cucumber, green beans and coriander are also good daily foods.

Okay no need to be so harsh but i doI am going to repeat once again. Please read the guides. Don’t just skim read them but read and digest them.
The photograph of the plate with veggies on shows exactly what it is good, safe and nutritious to feed them each day and in the correct quantity. If you copy that plate you cannot go far wrong. You do not need to provide piggies with lots of variety/choice. My piggies get the same veggies every single day. They get pretty much what is shown on that picture of the plate every single day. And they are delighted with it, and they are healthy.
In case the photograph has passed you by, I’m attaching a further View attachment 189727copy of it here

Think you need to make your guides a lot clearer
I understand the autistic thing of asking things more than once to understand. Forget everything else that's complicated and just feed what's on the feeding guide plate That's per pig, per day. If they don't like it, they soon will.Well I am on the autistic spectrum and sometimes I find things difficult to understand and need them to be made out a bit clearer maybe you should put beside kale on your list high in calcium should only be feed 1 to 2 times a week
I do think you are trying too much too soon. It takes time for pigs to realise different veggies you feed are safe. Honestly wouldn't bother with fruits or tomato's as the sugar is too high.
What veggies would you like to feed your pigs? I can make you a little chart of veggies/herbs based on what veggies you want to feed or buy for yourself normally. I can add a note of veggies high in vit c, high calcium and how often you can feed them. You sound like you want to do your best for your piggies. Maybe something you can print and put on your fridge may help you?
Then use the diet guide, which includes not only a clear explanation, but a photo of what you can safely feed on a daily basis.I would like to feed them stuff which is good for them like lettuce etc
Yes.Hi can piggies have small amounts of mixed baby leaf salad daily as I know it has a lot of water content I just wanted to check
The only lettuce piggies can't have is Iceberg.Hi can piggies have small amounts of mixed baby leaf salad daily as I know it has a lot of water content I just wanted to check
Siikibam can I ask why not ones with spinach I give them a very small amount of mixed baby leaf salad
Okay I’ll remember next time to pick out the spinachAs previously mentioned in this thread, spinach is too high in calcium to be fed regularly. You should ideally only feed one high calcium veg per week so if it contains spinach, then I would give it once but then pick the spinach out and only give the lettuce for the rest of that week
Our piggies used to like the other leaves. But yes pull out spinach. The other forms of lettuce are fineOkay I’ll remember next time to pick out the spinach
Some people do, i chop themI tried my piggies with fine green beans again today. I think salsa has decided she likes them now . Is it okay to give them whole
