I agree with Kitty. How much they eat is seasonal. But I’d rather find some left over in the morning than to have a late arrival little hog finding empty bowl. In the early hours.
My main concerns are:
*Decrease in habitat which leads to decrease in the insects hogs eat. I’ve noticed BIG decrease in insects here in N W Kent.
*Giving dried food to any animal I think is wrong, unless it’s been moistened.
You can leave out 20 bowls of water in your garden, but after feasting on dried food….just where else in your area is there available water? Especially in summer.
I live near open land, which was once a hogs paradise, now it’s being strimmed, cut back & destroyed by humans.
Each day I soak my cats left over food & then pour the “gravy” over dried hogs food & stir. I add a little black fly larvae which looks like meal worms but w/o calcium issues
Ive found that the Best & cheapest dried hog fòod is from BRINVALE £3.80 per kilo. Free del
Just work out how much you are paying per kilo not per bag….per kilo !
Would love to hear if there’s cheaper around. Or if anyone disagrees with anything….
Thank you to all in advance!!
