When starting out in pig farming you should first plan on where you want your domestic swine to call home. For pig housing you must construct a well aired swine pen which is spacious as well. You should place your swine pen in a flat place that is free from mud that can attract insects.
Your pig pen must be adequate to accommodate all of your swines and should be comfortable to your swine as well. To make it comfortable you can install hog wire and concrete slabs. The fence should be buried six inches deep in the ground so that the pigs don’t dig under it. Concrete slabs will make sure that the floor is proper and easy to clean.
To absorb smells that the pigs produce you can put hay plus straws on the floor. You can also design areas in the house where your swine can feed, sleep and relieve themselves. A good roofing is necessary as well to protect your pigs from extreme weather like heat and rainwater.
After you have designed a pig pen you then go ahead in getting the right pig breed for your task. This must be done carefully. Make sure that you purchase your pigs from a seller who knows what are high quality pigs and what are mediocre breeds.
Once your swine are in their houses all you have to do is take good care of them. You can do this by providing them with food and clean water everyday. Also remember to clean the pen every occasionally to ensure that bacteria doesn’t develop in the pen. A healthy pig will produce quality meat thus bringing you more profits.
