Potbelly pigs do not enjoy the winter months. Some potbellies can become very depressed. They sleep a lot more in the winter. Potbelly Pigs can become very bored also. They are used to going out in the yard and lay in the sun and graze.
So if you have Potbelly Pig Pets indoors you may want to find some activities for them to do. Potbelly Pigs love to play.
Sometimes in the winter I have problems with one of my potbellies getting constipated. This is because she is not grazing.
If you have this problem here are a few suggestions- Add one tablespoon of vegetable oil or mineral oil to their food once a day.
Also, make sure your potbelly is drinking plenty of water. You can mix their food with lots of water,they seem to do pretty well with it.
Just make sure your potbelly pig gets plenty of excercise in the colder months, and you should have a happy,healthy piggie!
