hi there ive been searching for updated forums and cant find any so i was hoping u could help. i have a 3 month old potbelly pig im feeding her 2 cups of food but throughout the day i let her outside with plenty of roaming room but she still squeels for more food i feed her 1 cup in the morning and 1 cup inthe evening around 6 pm. what could i feed her throughout the day thats healthy for her but not so shes going potty all day. shes almost completely housetrained but still has accidents by peeing in the house, she wont use a litter box she just lays in it. its almost winter and i cant leave her outside to pee like i have been ,any suggestions?

i feed mine extras like apples, raisins and prunes. space them out with small helpings. this works for mine. he still looks for food 24/7, but he is a pig after all!!!

I have taken courses in livestock nutrition. Pigs are bred to be very hungry animals and are known to eat at all times of the day. Pigs are very smart animals and can learn very quickly how they can get more food. However for the general health of your pet pig you want to restrict his feed to what you have been giving to keep him/her from becoming obese. Here are a couple of options: (1) Look for feed that has a higher fiber content to keep your potbelly pig more satisified and stay in his belly longer. (2) Try to distract your pig from food by offering other forms of stimulation like a chew toy.

If you still have concerns call a local veterinarian and they can help you out further.
