As a rule of thumb, you feed 1lb (450g) of food each day for each month of age, up to a maximum of 6lbs (2.75kg) per day. Do not feed more than this - you will waste money and end up with over-fat pigs. Only lactating sows need more food than this.

Most high-quality dog foods recommend approximately 1-1/2 cups per 10kg of body weight per day for smaller breeds, since they require 15-25% more calories per pound than larger breeds. Large and giant breeds are more often fed 1 cup per 10kg.

Recommended daily amount: 4 to 6 cups of high-quality dry food a day, divided into two meals. NOTE: How much your adult dog eats depends on his size, age, build, metabolism, and activity level. Dogs are individuals, just like people, and they don't all need the same amount of food.

In order to do this, the best method is to start low-and-slow—a 275°F to 300°F oven is ideal—and roast until the pig is cooked to at least 160°F in its deepest joint (the shoulder joint close to the head). This should take around four hours for a 20-pound pig, more or less if the pig is bigger or smaller.

Protein should be high (we're talking about 30%, way more than the average dog food). Some hedgehogs will eat pinkie mice. Most people feel their hogs ad-lib, which means they put the food in the bowl and let the hedgehog decide how much to eat. Some people feed once a day, others twice a day.

How Much. As for how much food to feed, a good rule of thumb is to feed no more than the fish will consume completely in less than five minutes. When in doubt, underfeed! You can always give them another small feeding if necessary.

The recommended daily amount for your Puggle is 3/4 to 1.5 cups of food twice daily. Remember that all dogs, like humans, are different, if your Puggle is more active he might need a little more than a Puggle that lives the couch potato life.

Below are some general guidelines on how much to feed puppies. Most dog food bags suggest feeding too much. I send our 10 week old puppies home eating about 1/2 cup of food 3 times a day. By 3 months, they will need a total of 2 cups a day and by 4 months, they should be eating about 2 1/2 cups a day.

You will often see them munching away, and many keepers struggle with knowing how much to feed them. You should aim to feed them 2-3 times a day and only give them what they can consume in less than 2 minutes.

You can feed your dog one or two times a day. It's best to do it twice daily at 8-12 hour intervals. If you're doing it this way, split the suggested amount found on the bag or you'll feed it double what it needs.

Personally I would be offering 1/2 cup of pellets per day per 5lbs of body weight. Once they hit adulthood/6months then they should only be eating a max of 1/4cup per 5lbs body weight. Unlimited grass hay at all times. Babies can have alfalfa.

Nursing Takes Commitment By the age of 1 week, piglets need feeding every 3 to 4 hours. If you want to get some sleep, most week-old piglets will be fine with a midnight feeding followed by one at 6 a.m. At 2 weeks, feed piglets four times a day.
