mutton chops
I used this on Furbie for quite a while until she got too bad and I had to put her down :'( .
Thought I'd share this with you if your pig has trouble eating. Obviously it's not ideal and may not be the solution but it kept Furbie alive for quite a while. I'm open to suggestions on modifying it if you find any faults.
My pigs love eating it and it can be used as a bit of a treat too!
Use the blender to turn some of their usual dry food into a fine powder.
Get some fruit/veg juice (probably better if sugar/additive free) or you can make your own by blending their fave veg/fruit up, maybe adding a little extra water.
Shake/mix them up together. Try not to make it too thin as you don't want to give them runny poop. Remember though, it has to be able to be sucked up by a syringe.
I add extra some vit c to the mix too. I used just the normal dissolvable ones you put in your water.
Feed this to them as often as possible and let them have as much as they want.
My pigs will happily eat this without being wrapped up in a towel from the syringe, but others may be more difficult.
It's quick and easy to make, especially if you store some dry food that's already been powdered.
Hope this helps.
