Iv just got rid of my pigs, they were a total night mare.
For every month in age they need an increase of a half kilo of food per day at the very minimum.
You try finding 7-10 kgs of food scrap per day to feed two pigs.
That soon adds up over a week, even this time of the year with all the wind fall apples they just consume everything,
Mine were getting through 60 kgs of mixed grain a week plus the apples and any cheap fruit and veg i could get my hands on.
SO, Chickens first, Rabbits second, duck and turkeys are great as well.
