Hey guys!
I'm having trouble finding a good way to keep the hay off the fleece but still accessible for the pigs. I was using some kind of bowl thing, but the pigs are getting bigger now and they like to dive in it and knock all of the hay onto the ground. Once it hits the ground for long enough, they refuse to eat it. I wake up every morning to pretty much all of the hay on the fleece and the poor pigs wheeking for new stuff.
I've tried using a bent grid in the corner of the cage, like I've seen many do here, but Bentley has a really hard time actually pulling any hay out.
I'm getting sick of wasting hay and spending so much time cleaning it off their fleece. Has anyone had any luck with other methods that they'd like to share? Pictures, maybe?
