What do you feed a pregnant pig?

Answer 1

You do not have to feed these babies anything special. The mother will feed them her milk for 6 weeks after giving birth. Then the babies will eat the same food you feed the mother. She will teach them to eat the food you feed her.

Answer 2

A pregnant pig should be fed a balanced diet that includes a mix of grains, protein sources like soybean meal, vitamins, and minerals. It's also important to provide plenty of fresh water and to gradually increase the amount of food as the pregnancy progresses to meet the higher energy and nutritional needs of the sow. Consulting with a veterinarian or animal nutritionist can help ensure the pregnant pig's dietary needs are met.

Answer 3

We have a beautiful sow who is a half Wild Boar and half Alenteijo pig from Portugal. She is our first pig and we are still learning but generally we feed her corn, mangle wurzells, cabbage and anything from the garden.

We give her kitchen scraps - but absolutely no meat.

She will eat anything really so it's up to us to make sure it is suitable.

We also give her a small quantity of pig nuts as, apparently, it stops any problems with diarrhoea.

Pigs are like people, omnivores They are opportunistic feeders, often known as the catfish of the land. A farmer normally "grain feeds" pigs that are market bound. Grain usually being a corn and protein based pellet. They also eat hay.
