Hi ChrisMc. Yes and yes ! I posted somewhere on this forum recently about the amount of food they were devouring lately. Nic replied that they don’t overeat – but watching a hoggie eating half a tin (400 g tin) of wet food from one dish, then – it’s true it was the same hog – going to another dish and eating half as much again it’s a wonder he/she could waddle away !!
Not having a camera I only watch until maybe midnight, but have to refill the several dishes I leave out, some of biscuits some of wet food. One evening they were all emptied within 2 hours.
I do wonder if the hot dry weather we’ve had lately (west of England here) has made their natural food harder to find, it can’t be easy for them or the birds to find food in such heat I suppose?
