Question What should I string wood chews on?

I bought some wood chews for my pigs. I'm not sure if I should give it to them, though, because I've heard they aren't a good brand. They are called Nutriphase Natural Nibblers. Small pieces of wood with bark on one side. Should it be okay for me to give to the pigs?

Also, if they are okay to give, what should I string them on? They come with holes drilled in the middle of each piece.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Re: What should I string wood chews on?

I use that kind of thing for my boys. It's just slices of wood with nothing added. Pet stores carry little "kabobs" for such things and I usually found them in the ferret section. You can also use an old fashioned metal shower curtain ring and just hang it from the side of the cage. The ring and the kabob make interesting places to string veggies also, the piggies enjoy "bobbing" for veggies.

They really don't need wood chews. The chews do nothing to help pigs. For proper wearing down of the molars, they need unlimited grass hay.
