When beginning pig farming you should first plan on where you want your pigs to call home. For pig housing you must construct a well aired swine pen which is spacious as well. You should place your pig pen in a flat area that is free from mud that may attract insects.
Your swine pen must be large enough to accommodate your entire swines and should be comfortable to your pigs as well. To make it comfortable you may install hog wire and concrete slabs. The surrounding fence should be buried six 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 smells that the pigs produce you may put hay and straws on the ground. You can even design parts in the pen where your pigs can feed, sleep and relieve themselves. A good roofing is needed as well to protect your swine from extreme weather like heat and rain.
After you have built a pig pen you then go ahead in getting the right pig breed for your project. This has to 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. This can be done by providing them with food plus clean water on daily bases. Remember to clean the pen every occasionally to make sure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A healthy pig will produce quality meat thus bringing you more income.
