Re: New Girls!

[FONT=Georgia]Wow. It sounds like they really were not cared for in their previous home, and they're much safer and are going to be happier with you.

Since you don't have any supplies yet, you should give them a small towel or something for them to burrow in. They feel safe in small, cozy places.

Pine and cedar shavings are not good for pigs, and are believed to cause upper respiratory infections (URIs). Kiln-dried pine is fine though. CareFresh is a good choice, I've heard. Aspen is also good. Fleece is definitely the cheapest, and what I use. Two is good, so you can replace it while the other's still washing.

Have you given them veggies yet? What kind of pellets and hay are they?
