in order for homegrown sprouts to be safe for you or your piggy is to wash them off in 10% bleach solution , rinse, and sprout, I believe.
Contact Territorial Seeds http://www.territorialseed.com/contact or Nichols Seed Company http://www.nicholsgardennursery.com/contactus.htm both in Oregon. Seeds untreated can transmit either salmonella or e coli. Both of these companies sell the seeds, equipment, books etc . Sprouts as pig food, I'm not sure, If I recall they have higher protein than the plants they produce and piggies cant do allot of protein, bad for little kidneys I think, so small amounts are probably ok
good luck
