It might be a gastro-intestinal infection, or it could be stress-induced. I strongly recommend finding a vet, because this could potentially be very serious as your pig is at risk of death from thirst or of starvation.

1. Perhaps she has blockage or constipation. A pig that is constipated or that has a blockage won't eat. If your pig is old it has a pretty good chance of constipation.

2. Another possibility is pneumonia. It's a pretty common problem. You can check for pneumonia by taking its tempature, it will have a fever usually in the area of 102.

3. She might just be in extreme pain or sickness.

It's not very normal for a pig to go without eating.
