Plants for Piggies?

Whenever we have lap time our adventurous piggie, Biscotti, will inevitably make a sudden mad dash for the philodendron plant that is at the end of the couch on a stand. I know the plant is poisonous and we've tried moving it farther away but in a 1 bedroom apartment with only 1 wall of windows there is limited space.

Our piggies love wheatgrass but we were curious what plants we could have on hand for the piggies to nibble on during laptime? Something that would be profuse enough in one pot that they could keep nibbling every few days during laptime. I have looked at the link below but they don't seem like apartment friendly plants. Could someone tell me if they have any piggie-yummy plants that they grow indoors?

Re: Plants for Piggies?

There's a thread at the top of this forum about forages. It contains many plants that piggies can eat.

I grow lemon balm and peppermint plants indoors because they are sooooo easy to maintain. The pigs love them, and they smell good in my house.
