When starting out in pig farming you should first plan on where you want your swines to call home. For pig housing you must 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 may attract insects.
Your pig pen should be adequate to accommodate your entire 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 six inches deep in the ground so the pigs don’t dig under it. Concrete slabs will ensure that the floor is proper and easy to clean.
To absorb odors that the swine produce you can put hay and straws on the ground. You can even design areas in the house where your swine can feed, sleep 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 getting the right swine 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 swine are in their houses all you need to do is take good care of them. This can be done by providing them with food plus clean water everyday. Remember 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 revenue.
