Mine love clover, and I have never had a problem with it, but they've only had small amounts at a time. I had never heard of it being poisonous. Thanks for posting that link, JarBax. As you said, hopefully someone here can clarify whether it's truly bad for them.

Replying to the original topic of this thread: outdoor playtime is a great idea now and then and very fun for the piggies. However, it's important that you are right there with them the entire time to make sure they don't escape or eat something that's bad for them, and to keep predators from being a threat. One more thing you need to look out for that I don't think has been mentioned yet is animal waste. You said you lived out in the country, so I'd keep a sharp look out for dog, bird, or other animal droppings.
