When beginning pig farming you should first plan on where you want your swines to call home. For pig housing you must construct a well ventilated pig pen which is spacious as well. You must place your swine pen in a flat place that is free from mud that may being insects.
Your swine pen must be adequate to accommodate your entire domestic swine and really should be comfortable to your pigs as well. To make it comfortable you may install hog wire and concrete slabs. The surrounding fence should be buried six 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 odours that the pigs produce you can put hay and straws on the floor. You can also design sections in the pen where your pigs can feed, rest and relieve themselves. A nice roofing is required as well to protect your swine from extreme weather like heat and rainwater.
After you have built a pig pen you then go ahead in choosing the right pig breed for your project. This must be done carefully. Make sure that you purchase your swine 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 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 occasionally to make sure that bacteria doesn’t develop in the pen. A proper hog will produce quality meat thus bringing you more revenue.
