When starting out in pig farming you should first plan on where you want your swines to call home. For pig housing you must construct a well aired pig pen which is spacious as well. You must place your swine pen in a flat place that is free from mud that can attract insects.
Your swine pen should be large enough to accommodate your pigs 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 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 odors that the pigs produce you can put hay plus straws on the ground. You can even design parts in the house where your swine can feed, sleep and relieve themselves. A nice roofing is needed as well to protect your pigs from extreme weather like heat and rainwater.
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 purchase 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. This can be done by providing them with food plus clean water on daily bases. Remember to clean the pen every once in a while to ensure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A proper pig will produce quality meat thus giving you more profits.
