Well, pellet isn't exactly the right word for it. (broken link removed)
It's long pellet "sticks" if it makes sense, to "encourage the pigs natural foraging behavior" & provide a long fiber source.
Really surprised when I opened the box. It's called FibaFirst by Supreme Science, and it's available in both Sweden & the UK.
The first ingredient is timothy hay, but I'd like to know if the other ingredients are acceptable. The fiber & Vitamin C content is higher than Excel or Oxbow, and the calcium content about the same as Oxbow, lower than Excel.

Ingredients:
Timothy hay, alfalfa stalks, ground peas, soybean flour, wheat flour,
locust bean meal, flaked oats, alfalfa protein extract, linseed, soya oil, salt.
Vitamin A 23000 IU
Vitamin C 1000mg
Vitamin D3 1500 IU
Vitamin E 60mg
Protein 16%
Crude fiber 22%
Crude Fat 3,5%
Calcium 0,6%
Phosphorous 0,5%.
My pigs love them as a treat, but the feeding recommendations are expensive if I were to follow them.
