Yes, almost every animal will drink water. It is especially important that you never deprive any pig of water because they can die from salt toxicosis simply by not having enough clean drinking water available.

What is a potbellied pigs diet?

Potbellied pigs will generally eat anything. The danger in this is that they can become obese and unhealthy. A potbellied pigs diet should mainly consist of foods high in fiber. There are feeds made especially for potbellied pigs that will contain the amount of fiber needed. Some brands are Heartland and and Peak Performance. The amount of feed depends on the weight of the potbellied pig. The general rule is about 1/2 cup of maintenance food per 25 pounds of the pigs weight. This total amount should then be divided into two feedings a day. Potbellied pigs can also be fed vegetables to expand diet options for the pig. Fruit can also be fed to the pig but in small amounts because of the higher amount of natural sugars. Another very important part of a pigs diet is water. Water should always be available for the potbellied pig to drink.
