In this episode of the Pet Pig Podcast, Autumn explores one of the most common (and misunderstood) pig behaviors: their obsession with food. If your pig begs constantly, roots endlessly, or always acts hungry—there’s science behind it!
You’ll learn:
• That pigs have 15,000–20,000 taste buds and how that makes food even more rewarding for them
• How their gut-brain connection differs from ours, making them feel less full—even after eating
• How food activates the pig brain’s reward system and why begging often becomes a learned behavior
• Why pigs are natural foragers and how feeding enrichment meets their biological and psychological needs
• Practical tips for using treats strategically and making mealtimes more stimulating and less stressful
Autumn also shares simple enrichment ideas, safe feeding tips, and how to avoid common mistakes like emotional or mindless treating. Whether you’re raising a piglet or managing a full-grown pig’s appetite, this episode will help you feed both body and brain.
