Pig in CAG costume?????

Hi all,

I am really starting to think that I was sold a pig in a CAG costume!

Our mornings start off with a hand feeding of about 40 cc's (of course today was the first day that she actually only ate about 20cc's and played with the rest of it, getting it all over her and the playtop). After that she moves onto about 1/2 cup of fresh fruits and veggies, which she devores like crazy. Then she moves onto about 1/2 cup of pellets that she eats during the day, however when I get home at 5:30pm, my husband has already restocked her pellet dish. Around 6pm, she is given beans, rice, pasta and veggie mix and all you see of her for about the next hour or so is her butt! Then around 8pm, she still eagerly downs another 40cc's or so of formula.
She only weighs around 360 grams and that's kind of on the small side for a CAG, but I am getting the feeling that she is making up the difference FAST!!!! :lol: Let me tell you, my little girl is not afraid of loosing her girlish figure that's for sure! :lol: I really don't think she still needs those hand feedings the way she gobbles down everything else, of course like I said she is a little underweight and the formula helps with that, but other than that, I think she is just spoiled rotten and enjoys letting Mommy feed her. :D

Keep her on the formula until she refuses it.
Big birds need heaps of food :lol:
