Pot Bellied Pig Cubes: How Much to Feed Your Pig

Quick answer

Feed Allen & Page Pot Bellied Pig Cubes as a measured daily portion rather than free-choice, and adjust the amount based on your pig's body condition and activity. Start with the feeding guide on the bag, then fine-tune weekly.

How to set and adjust cube portions

1. Weigh your pig and check body condition: Use a livestock weigh tape or a scale if your pig will stand on one, and run your hands over the ribs and spine. Record the weight and condition so you have a baseline. A baseline weight makes portion changes measurable rather than guesswork.
2. Read the bag guide and split it into meals: Check the feeding guide on the Allen & Page Pot Bellied Pig Cubes bag for the suggested daily amount, then divide it into two meals. Do not leave a full bowl down between meals. Two measured meals are easier to monitor than one large feed.
3. Start slightly below the guide if your pig is overweight: If your pig is already carrying extra weight, begin at the lower end of the bag guide and top up with low-calorie vegetables rather than more cubes. Never cut the portion drastically in one day; reduce gradually over a week.
4. Monitor body condition weekly: Check ribs and spine every week and adjust the cube portion by a small amount if condition is changing. Keep the rest of the diet consistent so you know what caused the change. Weekly checks catch weight gain before it becomes hard to reverse.
5. Adjust for weather and activity: In hot weather, offer the cubes in cooler parts of the day and make sure fresh water is always available. If your pig is more active, you may need a slightly larger portion. Heat stress can reduce appetite, so do not force a full meal in the heat of the day.
