You can put the veggies in the container just don't snap the lids down all the way. When I was chopping everything up into daily containers I set the lids at an angle and then stacked them so all the corners had gaps.
Pigs don't get fat on veggies. There's no fat there. They get fat on pellets so if you have a fat pig cut back the pellets not the hay or veggies. You can't really overfeed veggies so long as they are still eating enough hay for fiber so no soft droppings. Otherwise 1 cup a day per pig is only the average or recommended amount. There are even diets where you don't feed pellets but feed alot more veggies. Which I've done in the past because I had a pig that was horribly obese and kept eating the pellets for 8 pigs instead of 1. I was feeding more like 2-3 cups per pig in veggies along with 2 grocery bags or 4lbs of grass for the 8 of them daily. Then they'd eat around a pound or 2 of hay a day. Grass can take the place of hay and provide some of the nutrients hay is missing like vit c but they have to eat more of it since it has a higher water content.  |
