Feeding Piggies

All I see is that when I'm clicking really fast I sometimes give them all of my first food (usually meat) by accident... I know I should click slower, but shouldn't it only be an option to feed veggies you can harvest?

Also, since it's every 3 of a food to gain seeds, wouldn't it be loads easier if I could just give 10 (or implement a "give x" option) and get 3 seed packs instead of giving him 9 individually and risking accidentally selecting the "give all" option.  Imagine when trying to get 12 seed packs for my farm... An accident is bound to happen and that's just not fun.

  • Pigs will eat anything edible including meat.  They will also eat the fruit off your trees if you don't feed them (mine did).  I recommend that you just learn to slow down on the clicking for now or they might eat everything.  You might consider packing that first bag or slot with veggies.

  • Limiting what you can feed piggies so that you won't make a mistake is not the optimal solution, especially since you can feed piggies a number of things aside from veggies. 
    I personally don't bother trying to feed my piggies to get seeds--seeds are cheap enough that I can buy them, and I really only garden to have fun and make my rooftop look pretty.  Instead, I feed my piggies whatever extras or leftovers I have from cooking projects.  I cook in large batches, but when I get ingredients I often end up with extra ingredients that can't be combined into recipes.  I throw all of those to the pigs to clear out my pockets.

    I think people would be annoyed if they could only feed pigs veggies.

  • I feed piggies specific things to get piggy plops. Otherwise they eat whatever is in the feeder.

  • Like g33, I only specifically feed piggies things I want seeds of.  Otherwise, they will eat that grain in the feeder and LIKE IT.  Momma squoze a lotta chickens for you ingrates (I'm looking at you, Oscar, Meyer, Snausage, and Weiner!)
