Sorry, what I meant was I don't feed them more than a cup of vegetables and fruits a day (per pig). That's what I meant when I said "minimum of vegetables".

I do give a lot of dried fruit treats when I'm handling them from time to time. I used to do that all the time until I started getting bit by Chloe when I didn't have treats! Trust me...I learned from my mistake! She's just now getting used to not having a treat every time I handle her!!!

Anyways, just wanted to take a moment to clarify what I meant by minimum!!
