CATDOLL : Rural Pig Pen Construction Guide: Scientific and Reasonable Planning Helps You Raise Pigs with Half the Effort

Pigpen location selection

Choose a location that is close to a water source, well ventilated and sunny, and avoid low-lying, humid areas where water easily accumulates.

Pigpen structure design

It is recommended to use brick-concrete structure or steel structure to ensure firmness and durability. Reasonable partition fences should be set up to ensure that pigs have enough space to move around.

Pigsty size

The size of the pig house depends on the scale of breeding, and reasonable planning should be made according to the number of pigs to avoid overcrowding.

Ventilation requirements for pig pens

It is recommended to install windows of appropriate size to ensure air circulation and avoid excessive ammonia concentration in the pig house, which may affect the health of the pigs.

Pigsty hygiene management

Clean the pigsty regularly to keep it clean and sanitary to reduce the spread of diseases. You can add disinfectants in appropriate amounts to kill germs.

Temperature control in pig pens

Keep your pigs warm, especially in winter. Consider setting up heating equipment to protect them from the cold.

Pigsty safety protection

Strengthen the pigpen walls to prevent animal intrusion; regularly inspect the pigpen facilities to ensure safety and stability.
