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 aired swine pen which is spacious as well. You must place your pig pen in a flat area that is free from mud that may being insects.
Your pig pen should be large enough to accommodate all of your pigs and really 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 that the pigs don’t dig under it. Concrete slabs will ensure that the floor is proper and easy to clean.
To absorb odours that the pigs produce you can put hay plus straws on the floor. You can even design sections in the house where your pigs can feed, rest and relieve themselves. A nice roofing is needed as well to protect your swine from extreme weather like heat and rainfall.
After you have designed a pig pen you then go ahead in choosing the right swine breed for your task. This has to be done carefully. Make sure that you buy your swine from a seller who has learned what are high quality pigs and what are mediocre breeds.
Once your swine 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. Remember to clean the pen every occasionally to make sure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A proper pig will produce quality meat thus bringing you more profits.
