When starting out in pig farming you should first plan on where you want your domestic swine to call home. For pig housing you should construct a well aired swine pen which is spacious as well. You must place your swine pen in a flat place that is free from mud that may being insects.
Your pig pen should be adequate to accommodate all your domestic swine and really should be comfortable to your swine as well. To make it comfortable you may install hog wire plus concrete slabs. The surrounding 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 odors that the pigs produce you may put hay and straws on the ground. You can even design sections in the house where your swine can feed, rest and relieve themselves. A nice roofing is required as well to protect your swine 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 must be done carefully. Make sure that you buy 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 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 once in a while to ensure that bacteria doesn’t develop in the pen. A proper hog will produce quality meat thus bringing you more income.
