I want to start off by saying that I am now very aware of how many piggies are waiting for their forever home and rescue is always the way to go. With that being said I adopted what I thought was two males from an individual I found online. I got them on 12/11/2015 and last weekend I started noticing one of them was getting heavier. I tried to check the sex of both of them and I'm almost 100% certain that one is a boy and one is a girl. I am also almost positive that the girl is pregnant. I want everyone to know this was not planned and I know the risks involved with pregnancy. I have removed the boy from the cage and I have been trying to make my girl as comfortable as possible. I was hoping someone would be able to just assist me in making sure she's getting enough nutrients to have the safest most successful pregnancy. She gets fresh water in a glass bottle every day. Oxbow pellets and oxbow Timothy/orchard grass hay and fresh veggies. How much alfalfa should I feed? Do I take out the Timothy or combine it? Any and all help is appreciated. I'm including pics of my piggie to maybe also have someone see if they agree she's pregnant. I held her last night (very carefully) and I'm pretty sure I felt babies kick but I have no idea how far along she may be.
