Ok, i'm running you down the basics of feeding your piggies wild plants, these are the ones your piggies can eat: Clover 'White', Dandelion, Grass, (Ensure grass has not been sprayed with chemicals or soiled by animals.) Groundsel, Plantain, Shepherd's Purse, Sow Thistle. If you would like to see the pictures of these then please say so and i was get them. IMPORTANT! If you have a particular plant which is not listed on this page then please ensure you refer to a wild plant book to identify it and see if it is toxic or safe to feed - please err on the side of caution - if you are not 100% positive of your identification or a plants safety then DO NOT FEED TO YOUR PIG ! This page is in no way a complete listing of edible plants - I am only including plants that I personally recognise and that I have double checked with the sources listed below. These are the ones that are poisonous: Bindweed, Bracken, Bulbs - All ( eg daffodils, tulips, crocus, hyacinth, snowdrops etc), Buttercups, Bryony, Celandine, Daisys, Deadly Nightshade, Evergreen plants - All ( eg: Conifers, Yew, Ivy, Ferns etc), Foxglove, Hellebore, Hemlock, Horsetails, Lily of the Valley, Ragwort, Rhubarb, Privet. IMPORTANT! If you have a particular plant which is not listed on this page then please ensure you refer to a wild plant book to identify it and see if it is toxic or safe to feed - please err on the side of caution - if you are not 100% positive of your identification or a plants safety then DO NOT FEED TO YOUR PIG ! This page is in no way a complete listing of poisonous plants - I am only including plants that I personally recognise and that I have double checked with the sources listed below, and that are commonly found in English Gardens. Ok there you go! P.S. I got this information from a brilliant guinea pig website it has everything there! Here is the website: http://www.diddly-di.fsnet.co.uk/index.htm
