When starting out in pig farming you should first plan on where you want your swines 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 swine pen must be adequate to accommodate your entire swines 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 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 smells that the swine produce you can put hay and straws on the floor. You can even design parts in the house where your swine can feed, rest and relieve themselves. A good roofing is needed as well to protect your swine from extreme weather like heat and rain.
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 buy your pigs from a seller who has found out 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 plus clean water everyday. Keep in mind to clean the pen every occasionally to make sure that bacteria doesn’t develop in the pen. A healthy hog will produce quality meat thus bringing you more income.
