Make a rooting box for your pig

1.  Build a box from plywood for your pig to root around in since this is one of her natural instincts.  Make the box about 4 inches deep and at least 2ft by 2ft in size.  The box can be bigger if you have more space or a larger pig who requires more room to root.  If you are not handy with the power tools a sturdy old drawer will do well or a plastic under bed box.

2. Fill the box with hay or large pebbles the pebbles should be large enough that they cannot be accidentally swallowed damp hay will reduce the mess.

3. Hide food like natural popcorn or cereal like cherios in the root box for your pig to find.
