won't eat vitamins

[sunshineprinces]

After a lot of research and comparison I decided to put all three pigs on the Oxbow GNC50 (or whatever it's called). I have one piggy who was recently adopted who's on them and absolutely loves them. Both the other piggies just ignore them. I've tried wetting the tablet as recommended by the company and also have tried "hiding" one in veggies for accidental injestion. Does anyone have any more ideas?

I have to syringe feed my pig. He absolutely HATES the taste, but one of my pigs have already died from scurvy, so now I'm extra careful to give him vegetables and vitamin C tablets. Some pigs will just refuse to eat it. Have you tried crushing it into a power and sprinkling it on a wet vegetable, like romaince lettuce or something?

I haven't tried crushing the pill yet. I'm still hoping they'll eat it whole so I know they got all of it. I'll give it a couple days more then resign myself to that...sigh...

Thanks for your advice!

Anytime, I'm always happy to have a chat with other piggy owners!
