Re: Questions---- help

1. It depends. If they are in an area with grass and other edible forages then they won't need it. If they are outside and don't have access to grass/forages then yes they do need it.

2. Teeth chattering is what is is called. They do it to tell you to back off.

3. Have no clue. Do they have a working water bottle?

Hi
Thank you for your reply.
Yes they do have a working water bottle.
Another quick question can they eat daisies because the grass area that they have in some parts has them on.

Re: Questions---- help

I've never found sufficient evidence to know how safe daisies are for pigs to eat so it's better if they do not eat them. You may want to move your pigs from that area to another area where there are no daisies.

Re: Questions---- help

I often used to put my pigs out on grass with daisies on and they never had a problem (they liked them actually !)
However guinealynx says they are poisonous, So I am not really sure because my pigs were OK. I wouldn't want you to risk it so maybe best if not

Thank you for all advice. I think i will keep them away from them as i do have a big garden and can put them else where.
