Skinny piggy!

[deepelemgirl]

We adopted a piggy who is just too skinny & not fattening up like we had hoped. Are there any foods that might help her gain weight? She was pretty neglected when we got her & her health is definitely improved already, I just want to see her gain some more weight. I've looked at the dietary info on here and guinealynx but can't seem to find anything aside from providing more alfalfa over timothy. Thanks!

A good varied diet of veggies, a good quality timothy hay, a good brand of pellets such as Oxbow or KM's would help. You could also supplement with Critical Care.

I wouldn't give more alfalfa than timothy as you could end up with calcium sludge/stones.
