What kind of toys do pigs like? What care or precautions should I take with a pregnant pig?
Pigs are natural rooters and puzzle solvers, so anything that involves nosing around with or digging in will be fun. Giant rubber balls (like the kind you see horses playing with) treats hanging from a chain, places to dig and more can all help encourage some playfulness and enrich the environment. Pregnant pigs should be up to date on any needed vaccines in your area prior to breeding, and should be fed a diet appropriate for enough nutrition for growing piglets and nursing them after birth. A growing or lactation diet is best for mom to prevent nutrient deficiencies during these high-energy periods. Signs of problems that warrant a call to the vet are lethargy, loss of appetite, failure to gain weight, or struggling to stand/move around. Depending on your production style, most pregnant sows are crated or kept in a special birthing pen that allows piglets to safely move away from mom without having her accidentally lay on or step on babies.

Pigs should be fed a specific diet, such as in this case the Mazuri mini pig diet. I would recommend following the guidelines on the bag for your pig's particular size and weight. In addition, supplemental food can be in small quantities. I would encourage you to refer to the following page for information as it is a great source of info for new pig owners. http://americanminipigassociation.com/mini-pig-education/mini-pig-nutrition/ Hope this helps.

My pig just gave birth with ten piglets, what's the first thing should I do? Should I give them any medicines? When can I give them feeding? When can I separate them from their mother?
The only thing I would give them would be an iron injection tomorrow. Any vaccines you want to give should be done according to the manufacturer recomendation. You can put creep feed in with them straight away. You should wean them when they reach around 7kg usually at 3 or 4 weeks.

What can I put on my pigs sun burn. Her ears are burnt and her snout. Is there something I can put on it for pain. Can I put sunscreen on it, I don't want it to get worse.
You can use some Bag Balm on affected areas. There are sunscreens made specifically for pigs and livestock but you can also use a high SPF sunscreen for humans. Sullivan's Sun Guard is a popular sunscreen for pigs. Provide plenty of shade when she is outside or avoid going outside during the hottest part of the day.

What should my potbelly pig's weight be? I'm worried that she's eating too much and gaining too much weight. How much should she be eating?
Pigs grow at different rates, so it is very difficult to say your pig should weigh X pounds at X age. Adult pot bellied pigs can reach 200lbs. You can feed her a commercial pig chow. It should be a maintenance formula not a pig starter. Common brands include Mazuri, Manna Pro and Heartland. Penelope can eat 1.5-2 cups of chow daily. Divide into two feedings. Additionally, fresh vegetables should make up about 25℅ of her diet.
