I have 3 sows, 2 are about 13 weeks and the other one is about 8 weeks.
How much veggies should I give per pig, per day (in grams or cups)
If you could tell me what you would feed them and portion sizes everyday (For example how much of a cucumber?)

Today I am giving them;
1/8 cup pellets x3
A third of a bell pepper
3 florets of broccoli
3 romaine lettuce leaves
1 seedless grape (cut up)
2 baby tomatoes (cut up)

Is this ok?

I feed;
bell pepper everyday
Broccoli twice a week
Carrot 4 times a week (a little carrot stick each)
Kale 2 times a week (8 small leaves every time)
Romaine lettuce 4 times a week (a leaf each)
Celery 2 times a week (1/2 a stick cut up every time)
Tomato twice a week (2 small cut up every time)
Cucumber 4 times a week (6 thin slices every time)
And apple once a week (a slice cut up small) though I don't do this every week

Is this ok?
 
Mine get a 100g every day. So that's about 50g each.

You don't have to worry about cutting everything up into tiny bits though :)
 
I would do about 50g per pig, so 150g as a guide. Mine are on a strict diet due to health (one is dealing with bladder problems and the other is prone to mild bloat and dental issues). 1/8 cup of nuggets isn't much for young piggies, unless they have alfalfa hay once a day. They probably need about 30g nuggets each until they are 6 months old.
