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 aired swine pen which is spacious as well. You must place your pig pen in a flat area that is free from mud that may being insects.
Your pig pen should be large enough to accommodate all of your domestic swine and really should be comfortable to your pigs as well. To make it comfortable you can install hog wire and concrete slabs. The surrounding fence should be buried 6 inches deep in the ground so that the pigs don’t dig under it. Concrete slabs will ensure that the floor is proper and easy to clean.
To absorb smells that the pigs produce you can put hay and straws on the floor. You can even design sections in the pen where your pigs can feed, sleep and relieve themselves. A good roofing is necessary 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 task. This needs 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 plus clean water everyday. Keep in mind to clean the pen every every now and then to make sure that bacteria doesn’t develop in the pen. A proper hog will produce quality meat thus bringing you more revenue.
