Nearly 2 years ago I sat on a lecture where the findings on mealworms was called into question. There will always be debate on these issues.
However, Vale Wildlife hospital are one of the foremost authorities on hogs these days and it makes total sense to follow advice given by them.

As Nic has said more times than I can remember, we are only supplementing a hogs diet, and therefore we should be doing it with healthy food if possible.

As more and more hogs are coming to rely on us as a major source of food, we need to make sure that they get a good diet, but more importantly make their environment sustainable for them.


@Jervis
, You don’t seem to be reading Nic’s posts properly – I’m not sure why you are attacking her, she has not advocated giving mealworms or calci worms. In fact she has only ever endorsed cat or dog food and good hog practice in all the years I’ve seen her posts.
This is a site set up to help people understand hogs and to get advice not to attack others. That behaviour will just put people off asking for help
