Just a bit worried, my 1 year old piggie Gordon is eating less, than normally , just wondering if this is something to worry about or not?
If he was not eating at all of course, I would have taken him to the vets by now, but for the last few days, he is just not eating as much as normal.
 
Have you had his teeth checked, it could be that he has a spur or that they are a little overgrown. My little piggie started to eat less and she needed her teeth done. Worth a try.

My first thought is what Neve38 said about having your piggies teeth checked. They can cause a lot of problems if dental work goes untreated.
 
Thankyou all for your help. Gordon has eaten more today, but I will keep a eye on him and I think a vist to the vets to check his teeth, would be a good idea. :)
