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 ventilated swine pen which is spacious as well. You should place your swine pen in a flat area that is free from mud that can being insects.
Your pig pen should be adequate to accommodate all your domestic swine and should be comfortable to your pigs as well. To make it comfortable you may install hog wire plus concrete slabs. The surrounding fence must be buried 6 inches deep in the ground so the pigs don’t dig under it. Concrete slabs will ensure 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 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 built a pig pen you then go ahead in choosing the right swine breed for your task. This should be done carefully. Make sure that you buy your swine from a seller who knows what are high quality pigs and what are mediocre breeds.
Once your pigs are in their houses all you need to do is take good care of them. This can be done by providing them with food plus clean water everyday. Also remember to clean the pen every occasionally to make sure that bacteria doesn’t develop in the pen. A proper hog will produce quality meat thus bringing you more profits.
