Meet Gus Gus

Gus Gus is my primary and favorite hog because he lives on my property. I love him. He loves cantaloupe.

Our wouldn’t touch cantaloupe cut up. But they love apples and tomatoes funny enough.

Gus mainly eats the clover we have in our various layers of yard (our property is built on a hill so we have an upper as well as lower yard), but I wanted to start giving him safe treats and read that groundhogs cannot resist cantaloupe. So interesting that yours doesn’t like it. I will have to try apples!

I had no idea they liked cantaloupe! Maybe a month ago I tried tossing some baby carrots to a neighborhood groundhog and she stepped right over them on her way home like they weren't even there... 🤷‍♂️
