Question by ang_of_lynvlle: How do I stop diarrhea in a baby potbellied pig?
WE “addopted ” a baby potbellied pig after its mother died, its about a week old, I have been feeding it goats milk and baby cereal-which it loves, but since we got him he has had diarrhea which I can’t get to stop, as a “new” mom I don’t know what to do, any help?
What do you think? Answer below!
I would recommend you consult a vet because as you say, you don’t know what you are doing.
I once adopted a 2 day old cat because it’s mother died. The vet was brilliant and very helpful.

feed him as many fibrous foods as you can.
hold back on the goats milk and bump up the cereal for a while – if you see no improvement in about 2-3 days by changing the feeding proportion then crank the goats milk right back up becuase he has a gastro-intestinal infection and the diahorrea will start to dehydrate him.
If he sems withdrawn – less bouncy and sunken eyes or any excess discharge from the nose or eyes then see a vet straight away.

Mix Arrowroot in the milk as this will help stop the diarrhoea
