When starting out in pig farming you should first plan on where you want your swines to call home. For pig housing you must construct a well ventilated pig pen which is spacious as well. You should place your pig pen in a flat place that is free from mud that can attract insects.
Your swine pen should be large enough to accommodate your pigs and should be comfortable to your pigs as well. To make it comfortable you can install hog wire plus concrete slabs. The surrounding fence must be buried 6 inches deep in the ground so the pigs don’t dig under it. Concrete slabs will ensure that the floor is proper and easy to clean.
To absorb odors that the swine produce you may put hay plus straws on the floor. You can even design sections 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 choosing the right pig breed for your project. This should be done carefully. Make sure that you purchase your swine from a seller who knows what are high quality pigs and what are mediocre breeds.
Once your pigs are in their houses all you need to do is take good care of them. This can be done by providing them with food and clean water everyday. Keep in mind to clean the pen every every now and then to ensure that bacteria doesn’t develop in the pen. A healthy hog will produce quality meat thus giving you more income.
