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 aired pig pen which is spacious as well. You should place your pig pen in a flat area that is free from mud that can being insects.
Your swine pen must be large enough to accommodate your entire domestic swine and should be comfortable to your pigs as well. To make it comfortable you may install hog wire plus concrete slabs. The 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 odours that the swine produce you can put hay and straws on the ground. You can also design parts in the pen where your pigs can feed, rest and relieve themselves. A good roofing is needed 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 swine breed for your project. This has to 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 and clean water on daily bases. Keep in mind to clean the pen every every now and then to make sure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A proper hog will produce quality meat thus bringing you more revenue.
