What Your Pig Should Eat

Your pet piggy, just like any pet (or YOU for that matter), should get a balanced and well maintained diet. Now, they can't eat the same foods as other pets, but their diet should be consistent.

About a quarter of their diet should come from healthy veggies. These include leafy greens, potatoes, cucumbers, and celery. Depending on your pig, he or she may even like peppers, but stick with something mild, like bell peppers. Grains such as wheat and hay also play an important part in your piggys diet.

There is also food that is specially formulated for teacup piggys on the market that will balance the right amount of fats, proteins, fiber, and other nutrients that your pet needs.

Lastly, always remember to make sure that your pig has plenty of cool water, especially on hot days. Remember to change the water if it gets dirty, or just sits out too long.
