Meet
our piggy Twister. When Peruvian piggies are babies they have
rosettes in their hair like little twists, which is how she got her
name. I got Twister when she was just two weeks old so she is really
bonded to me. My husband says she always lets him know at least five
minutes before I get home by her little piggy sounds. She loves to
popcorn about and give kisses.
Twister may be a little girl, however she has a huge appetite. She eats
very few pellets but loads of leaf lettuce and hay. Veggies are a very
important part of a piggy's diet. They need certain amounts of vitamin
C each day, which you can provide via supplements or two cups of fresh
veggies daily. Twister prefers to have her veggies and in fact can get
quiet demanding about it. Most people say piggies should be kept in
pairs but our little princess seems very content by herself. That way
she does not have to share the lettuce ;o)!
