Beginners guide to PIG PENS | STRONG, LONG LASTING!! 

just as a suggestion the side of the hogs Pen going toward your gate or your right hand is you might want to bury your 10 at least about five to six inches in the ground and put rocks on the inside and on the outside tap the Rocks down good and tight put the dirt back on top of the rocks and that will keep your hogs from getting out that will help you in the long run I've raised hog since i was too and 3 years old so i've been around them all my life i've not raised any in a long while but I just wanted to give you a suggestion because I noticed that if you can see light under the Gated roofing metal where your right hand is going toward your gate they can get out if they can if hogs can see daylight they will get out you want to block their view of seeing under the fence if they can see through the fence they're going to get out you don't want him to get out so you don't let them see on the other side of the fence let them see each other on either side of the pen but you don't want him to see anywhere else cuz believe me they will get out and they're hard to catch i just wanted to give you that suggestion your pen looks really good that's one of the best hog pins that i've seen i'm used to the old timey way the gated metal and plank fence on top of the gated metal also does really good for keeping pigs in just being neighborly

Awesome, those pigs are living the good life!

Thank you very much for all the valuable information. You have a great set up

Thank you very much. I’ve been searching for months on how to make my piggies secure and this was the most helpful video I’ve found so far

Remind me of my uncle 🤠

One big question....finally looking forward to doing feeder pigs this spring with our new property but I would really want to try to avoid the cost of digging the post holes with a tractor I'd have to rent...is there a way I can manually dig them with a post hole digger or manual auger? Thanks so much, great channel

Good setup. I'm going to use the water barrel idea. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks! Can't wait to see how they do over the summer. Are you eating them or selling them? Interested in knowing why butchering prices are so high. Will you be processing them yourself?

How do yoy manage the pen during the wet season?

Thank you for sharing. Thanks for stressing how deep post should be. I would like to raise 1-2 hogs for my own family; not worried about selling. For that would a 8x8 pen work? What should I aim for? I live in high desert of So Calif west of Victorville. Any suggestions what breed to start with?

Suggestion using free pine trees to make them last? Thanks!!!

How do you dig your post holes?

How do you feel about electric fence

How do you feed them during the rains?

If you’re raising feeder pigs, how often do you need to move them from one pen to another?

Aren't concerned about the chemicals in the utility poles you used for post? I got few old telephone poles I was thinking using in my pig pen set up as well.

How much would you say that you spent on materials?

How big do you build your pig shed ?

Do hogs need a mud hole?

Here bc I’m trying to figure out how to build a home for my boyfriend. 🥂

Do you have any problems with coyotes

Whats your cost per hog to get them butchering size?

Interesting you choose a light skinned breed that can sunburn more easily than a darker skinned breed like a Duroc, Red Wattle, Poland China, or Spot.
