    It's so obvious how much you all care about your animals!💝🐖🐖🐖 I've heard that dehydration can cause a pig not to eat. Maybe, since this one 🐖 is smaller than the other two, they're not letting her get her share 🤔 Maybe you could feed and water 💦 her separately until she catches up 🤷🏻‍♀️

    Loraine my mom used to make what she called refrigerator stew. She'd take the leftovers when they got to be too abundant and she'd dump it all into one pot, season it up and that was dinner. It was always good always plenty. My mom and dad were raised during the Great Depression and our family of 8, 6 kids, never wasted anything and thank God we never went hungry!

    They say animals intuitively know what they need when it comes to their minerals , especially when they don't feel good.

    • @Grunttamer
      @Grunttamer ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Activated charcoal isn’t just burned hardwood. It’s made in a special process that introduces extra air bubbles in the charcoal to increase the surface area. Burned hardwood charcoal will do the same job you just need 2 or 3x the amount to be equivalent

Today was my kale that was wilting, last 4 carrots and the last strips of bacon. Stir fry in a stir of butter. Garlic powder. It keeps your cost down at the grocery store and no waste. Do waste food with cost now. Chilli and cornbread looked good. Glad the three stooges are doing better. I still think of them that way when you first wanted a name list. Take care and blessing

    @winterbeauty1991 ปีที่แล้ว

    We raised our first pigs this last year and one of them just stopped eating, wouldn’t get up, only drank water and just super lethargic and felt like she had a fever. I got a syringe with a drench tip, and gave her activated charcoal, and then apple cider vinegar with salt. And supplements we gave them in their feed daily was apple cider vinegar, diatomaceous earth, and kelp. This next round of pigs I’m planning on giving them free choice charcoal throughout raising them. My pig guy says that most likely what happened was the pig ate something on pasture that didn’t sit well with them. Having that drench tip is a must have! You guys did everything right, and having that drench tip will up your treatment game, and is not that expensive! 😉
