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 ventilated pig pen which is spacious as well. You should place your swine pen in a flat place that is free from mud that may being insects.
Your swine pen must be adequate to accommodate all your pigs and should be comfortable to your swine as well. To make it comfortable you may install hog wire plus concrete slabs. The surrounding fence must be buried 6 inches deep in the ground so that 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 pigs produce you may put hay plus straws on the ground. You may also design areas in the house where your pigs can feed, sleep and relieve themselves. A good roofing is necessary 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 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 have to do is take good care of them. This can be done by providing them with food and clean water on daily bases. Remember to clean the pen every once in a while to make sure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A proper pig will produce quality meat thus giving you more income.
