When starting out in pig farming you should first plan on where you want your pigs to call home. For pig housing you must construct a well ventilated pig pen which is spacious as well. You should place your pig pen in a flat area that is free from mud that may being insects.
Your swine pen must be large enough to accommodate your entire domestic swine and should be comfortable to your pigs as well. To make it comfortable you can 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 smells that the pigs produce you may put hay and straws on the floor. You can also design sections in the pen where your swine can feed, rest and relieve themselves. A nice roofing is needed as well to protect your pigs 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 project. This needs to be done carefully. Make sure that you purchase your pigs 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. Also remember to clean the pen every occasionally to make sure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A proper hog will produce quality meat thus bringing you more profits.
