When beginning pig farming you should first plan on where you want your domestic swine to call home. For pig housing you should construct a well aired swine pen which is spacious as well. You should place your swine pen in a flat place that is free from mud that can attract insects.
Your swine pen should be adequate to accommodate all your pigs and really should be comfortable to your swine as well. To make it comfortable you can install hog wire and concrete slabs. The 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 odours that the pigs produce you can put hay plus straws on the floor. You may also design areas in the pen where your swine can feed, rest and relieve themselves. A good roofing is required 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 getting the right pig breed for your project. This has to be done carefully. Make sure that you buy 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 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 ensure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A healthy hog will produce quality meat thus bringing you more income.
