When starting out in pig farming you should first plan on where you want your domestic swine to call home. For pig housing you should 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 can attract insects.
Your pig pen should be adequate to accommodate your pigs and should be comfortable to your pigs as well. To make it comfortable you can install hog wire plus concrete slabs. The fence must be buried six inches deep in the ground so 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 may put hay plus straws on the floor. You can also design sections in the house where your swine can feed, sleep 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 getting the right pig breed for your project. This should be done carefully. Make sure that you purchase your pigs from a seller who has learned 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 plus clean water everyday. Keep in mind to clean the pen every every now and then to make sure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A healthy hog will produce quality meat thus bringing you more income.
