You actually have to feed them meat sometimes, they need a varied diet, apparently.
I find it really creepy though, feeding animals their own flesh is how Mad Cow Disease started...
It was a bit weird today when I came back after abandoning my piggies for a few days, to find them more than willing to be nibbled... they had eaten the carcasses of their hungry buddies in order to stay alive.
have you ever seen how hens eat meat (real hens)? and I ve seen a lot of times. sometimes it is a rain worm and sometimes it is a chicken meat. They must have some protein to produce good eggs. And the pigs, I mean real pigs and not these nice and agreeable piggies we have here in glitch...
They are omniwores, If one goes to them and lies still nearby, they can wolf one. In my native village we had 2 or 3 cases when pigs were cannibals. They are really very dangerous beasts.
Pigs eating pigs doesn't bother me all that much. But BBQ'ing dancing magical fireflies into crystallized chards just rips my heart out. At 200 currants each though, I think I can live with myself.
I never jumped to the conclusion that meat was actually the meat of piggies. When you nibble them, they like it and give you meat. Where they are getting this meat, I have no idea.
