No kitten milk! Get Critical Care from your vet and feed that. It has everything even a baby pig would need.

i dont know if ur pig is still in need or is alive still but the same exsact thing happened to our lil baby cavy. She was the runt and she wasn't getting milk. What we did was she was completely unconscience so if ur pig is unconscience try it anyway, but get condensed milk and just give him/her a lil bit for a day. She will probably shake and a lil bit of weird things. And you will probably have to nurse her back by night. Then you have to leave the pig in the cage for a while so that the mother will accept her again then she should be good :) I hope It's not too late :/

Do NOT feed any milk based products to the pig. Chad is right you need to get some critical care from your vet and start it immediately.
