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 pig pen which is spacious as well. You should place your swine pen in a flat area that is free from mud that may attract insects.
Your swine pen should be large enough to accommodate all your swines and should be comfortable to your swine as well. To make it comfortable you may install hog wire plus concrete slabs. The surrounding fence must 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 swine produce you can put hay and straws on the ground. You may also design sections in the pen 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 rain.
After you have designed 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 healthy hog will produce quality meat thus bringing you more profits.
