Over the past few days i have noticed a decrease in the amount of poops in Terras cage. I put in a call to the vet. As far as I know he is eating normally. What could cause this?
His poops are normal and he is eating his pellets hay and veggie.

Is he eating as much as usual? Does he make any squeaking sounds when he does poop? Is he generally in good form?
If he seems the same as usual (apart from less poos) and is definitely still pooping then I don't think it's anything to worry about.
You could pick him up and feel around his genital area to see if that hurts him. If it doesn't then I don't think there's anything serious going on.
When you say pooping less, how much less? Like barely any poops at all? Or maybe half the amount?

about 1/2 less He doesn't seem like he is in any pain and is acting normally. He doesn't squeak while pooping.

Is there any chance he's pooping mostly in one area so that's making it look like there are less? Have you weighed him?

Sounds normal to me, sometimes pigs poop less. May be worth making sure hes not impacted. But i reckon its nothing to worry about.
