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 pig pen which is spacious as well. You should place your pig pen in a flat place that is free from mud that can attract insects.
Your swine pen should be adequate to accommodate all of your domestic swine and should be comfortable to your swine as well. To make it comfortable you may install hog wire and concrete slabs. The surrounding fence must 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 smells that the pigs produce you can put hay plus straws on the floor. You may also design sections in the pen where your pigs can feed, rest and relieve themselves. A good roofing is needed as well to protect your pigs from extreme weather like heat and rain.
After you have built 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 swine from a seller who knows 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. You can do this by providing them with food plus clean water everyday. Remember to clean the pen every occasionally to make sure that bacteria doesn’t develop in the pen. A proper pig will produce quality meat thus bringing you more profits.
