Re: Too much hay?

Cut back or eleminate pellets (look up pelletless diet on GL.) Skip the apples and use bell peppers for vit c instead.

You can always take your piggie to the vet for a wellness check up and ask what they think you can do to help your pig lose weight.

Also lots of floor time and a large cage will encorage exercise which is part 2 of the weight loss equation. Try to keep the water, hay, pellets and hidey house far apart to encourage him to walk about.
