Feed ?

He ain't eatn feed much anymore. Still drinks milk pretty good (although not too much this am).

The feed is show pig feed for piglets.

Any suggestions on other feeds?

Thanks, D.

We have a friend that raised one on nothing but dog food. That sucker got huge for a wild pig.

We used to feed ours milk and white bread warmed in the microwave when they were small enough to fit in a coffee can. As they got bigger, about the size of yalls we'd transition them to dog food soaked in milk, then weaned the milk off to just plain dog food. About the 5th one we raised was named Ol' Roy, from the sack of dog food he'd eat a week.....

Thanks for the info, gents!

*Bi-polar pig!

He's starting to come around, I think. Last couple days we've seen vast improvements.

Eatn great. (And maybe "great eatn" in a few mos).

*Bloodied me up a little today. But next minute he's a lap dog.

Loves belly and behind the ears scratches, lol. Acting just like a dog. Even fast kicks one back leg when ear scratching.

Scratching

If you can get him still long enough to start petting him, he will go into a sleep like trance and just fall over once you start scratching his side/belly.

Maybe he thinks Ethan is "Momma", grooming him ???

It's pretty funny.

Ethan asked me to ask TBH for name suggestions.

Ethan is my Grandson. He & his lil sis (Bella) live w/us, along w their Dad - my stepson.

Their mom left us w the kids when Bella was 6 mos (aced a drug test). That was 5 yrs ago. Long story. Tough on em missing "mom", if you can call her that.

Short story..... - These kids are getn a lil "spoiled".

(Kinda hidden above, but posted video of the "scratchn", lol).
