How can I treat constipation in my pig?

Ask your vet to prescribe a laxative for the pig. Animals can be medicated as well as humans. Or you could try feeding him a lot of fiber, that might loosen him up.

One thing you could try is putting cascara sagrada into your pig's food and having him/her eat it. Another option that you might not find too appealing would be to insert the gel from an aloe vera plant into your pig's rectem. Chickweed and dandelion are also good choices to put in the food.
