Here's what I found for the (broken link removed) and here is the (broken link removed). It says it works for cucumbers, zuchini, bell peppers and herbs. And while I was looking I found these. (broken link removed). hmmmmm wonder if they really work.

Sounds like it is wheatgrass. I get the seeds at my local Whole Foods in the bulk section. I think they call it winter wheatberry or something like that. I got a whole pound for under a dollar and it grew a lot of grass. If you don't have a Whole Foods up there try other stores that tend to...

I had this same experience. There was only 1 place listed within 50 miles of me and when I went there (they were just down the road from where I work) they had gotten out of small pets completely and only did things related to fish and aquariums. I did get a bunch of free water bottles they had...

Well personally I just switched cold turkey. I ditched an almost brand new bag of Kaytee. Mine never seemed to notice the difference. Maybe if they didn't have a choice they'd eat the good stuff. Offer a kid an apple or a cookie, most likely they will take the cookie.

I know you meant bowl but this mental image had me chuckling.

The Tractor Supply here takes in rabbits and sells them for a couple of BYB's. I know because one of them is my sister-in-law. >( One of the many reasons we don't get along. I have stopped shopping there as a result. Last week I was running low on hay and the store I usually get it from was out...

I just ordered a 25 lb box of timothy from Oxbow on Monday the 4th. I paid $19.75 and $22.31 for shipping (total $42.06). That comes out to $1.68 a pound. I received an email on Wednesday the 6th that it had shipped and gave me a tracking number. I just checked the tracking number and it says...

Radicchio is one of those things they can have everyday, red cabbage only 2-4 times per week. My pigs love radicchio but I have a hard time finding it and when I do it is a little expensive. Last time I bought it the girl charged me for red cabbage (.58/lb) instead of for radicchio (4.99/lb)...

But Kale is also high in calcium so needs to be limited to prevent sludge.

Yes cut the spinach and parsley down. You need to feel the spots and if they are gritty then you have a problem. If it is just chalky I think it is fine but you do need to make diet adjustments. Also cut back on the cucumber. It has a high water content and is too gassy.

Or just the 1/4 cup scoop once a day. It is a small amount but they should be getting the majority of their nutrition from the hay and veggies.

From guinealynx Put 1/8 cup of pellets (per pig) in the cage once a day. Or if you have 2 pigs and really feel like you need to put pellets in more than once a day, put 1/8 in the morning and 1/8 at night. I feed my boys 1 cup of vegetables each in the morning and at night. (Total of 2 cups...

So did you go back to the Kaytee? I hope not. If not, he went back to eating pretty quickly I am sure. I have never seen an animal (other than human) refuse food that was in front of them for too long. An animal's survival instinct is too strong to refuse any food unless they are ill. Human...

Yay! Good for you and your piggies!

Maybe you could just not give them their veggies and pellets at the same time. Give them veggies in the morning and at night right before you go to bed and the pellets some time during the day, like when you get home from work/school. That way they may be more inclined to finish off their...

I give my 2 pigs veggies in the morning and at night, 2-4 cups at each feeding. I replenish the hay every night and any other time it needs it. I give them their portion of pellets at night. It doesn't matter when you give the pellets, just be sure to not give more than 1/8 to 1/4 cup per day...

Well you might try giving Twizzler some lap time when you put the pellets in the bowl and give Oliver some time to eat some of them before you put Twizzler back in. Or take Oliver out and let give him some outside the cage while Twizzler eats his in the cage.

....and here I thought I was the only one that "cruel".

I just want to point out that I have never heard of a healthy animal starve themselves to death if there is food available. They may not like it at first but they will eventually eat any food that is there when they get hungry enough.

I went to HEB. They are a regional grocery store but they are just as big as Randall's and there are more of them around. Practically an HEB on every corner and usually pretty close to a super Wal-Mart. Where I live they are across the street from each other. I usually go to Wal-Mart because...
