When beginning 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 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 large enough to accommodate your entire domestic swine and should be comfortable to your pigs as well. To make it comfortable you may install hog wire and concrete slabs. The fence should be buried 6 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 odours that the swine produce you can put hay plus straws on the ground. You may also design sections in the pen where your swine can feed, sleep and relieve themselves. A good roofing is required as well to protect your swine from extreme weather like heat and rainfall.
After you have built 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 purchase your pigs from a seller who has found out 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. You can do this by providing them with food and clean water on daily bases. Keep in mind to clean the pen every once in a while to make sure that bacteria doesn’t develop in the pen. A proper pig will produce quality meat thus giving you more profits.
