Hi Wren23

Good to hear the hogs are doing well and that the little one has put on weight. Re. the food, I would adjust it a bit according to how much they eat. So if they leave a lot, give a bit less, etc. But I would also continue to leave a small amount of food out for a couple of weeks, even if the hogs disappear to hibernate – just in case some other hogs turn up. Sometimes hoglets ‘miraculously’ appear late in the year when other people have stopped feeding.

Some people leave some food out all winter in case. But if the hogs don’t hibernate, just keep feeding them as normal.
