First of all, thanks for saving those babies! I've never actually raised a piglet, but I know there's an underage pig Facebook page and they're very helpful. I do think piglets can start eating very milked down pellets pretty young, but, again, they would be your best resource.

When your pigs start getting older--please find a vet and get them fixed. I cannot tell overemphasize how important this step is, so I'll just leave it there. When they're old enough to get fixed, GET THEM FIXED!!

I would also recommend harness training them early on, since my 4 year old thinks his harness is the devil and won't go near one for all the cheerios in the world. Ditto car riding. Give them lots of praise (and, more importantly, treats) so they want to wear their harnesses/go places.

As far as toys go, our pig is super lazy, but he loves this for indoors and he has one of these for the yard. Either of those can keep him occupied for an hour at a time, though you might need to check in on them from time to time to make sure their ball hasn't gotten stuck or they haven't knocked anything else. (I once got out of the shower to find my entire living room rearranged because of the path the ball had taken...)

Good luck! Your pigs are lucky to have you!

Hi. I'm late, and my stuff is similar to yours but I'll show you anyway.

Our piglet LOVES this thing, we put cheerio halves inside: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003YHB8EI?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00

I made this rooting box last wknd during the snow storm and he now uses it once a day. I went the cheap route w the pans until I knew he'd actually use it. That's regular hay sprayed down with water and we add raw cut up veggies.

Also, this bed is the best. He roots in it 24/7 and tires himself out. I also have a hot water bottle in there that is kind of heavy, he likes digging under it and rooting into it too.

The best part is they're making an animated movie called "Chris P Bacon Saves Christmas" :)

Also there's a really cute storybook. I have it on my phone and it's amazing.

Pruning shears are great for general shaping and upkeep.

When their hooves get thick and a little out of control, the tool below works great.

It's called "Vegan Virgin Valentine." I've never read it, but I work in a library and I see it around sometimes.

I bathe our pig outside with the hose when it's warm-I'll distract him with raisins, and fill a big cup up with water to slowly rinse him off! But when it gets cold out, I use this Wahl Pet Friendly Waterless No Rinse Shampoo for Animals - Oatmeal & Coconut Lime Verbena for Cleaning, Conditioning, Detangling & Moisturizing Dogs, Cats & Horses - 7.1 Oz https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00GZQYLOE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_bkLXDb961T9TV
