100 pigs on 400 square metre's c'mon mate!

Thank you sir

I couldn't agree more with the setup. We raised hogs for the freezer. We shared them with my grandparents every year. They are stronger than you expect. They definitely need a strong enclosure with hog panels

Is there a way to gain access to this spreadsheet?

Came here to learn el fence install… stayed to admire his arms😊

Why they get bloated? It happens a lot with cattle. They don't get enough water, wrong feed, too much of bad grass?

How many hogs do you raise a year?

Nice set up !

Great content thanks for sharing

Get rid of the boar and use AI.

Do you feed your pigs hay in the winter or is that just for bedding. Are you pigs just fed a feed ration?

It's not a myth. Customers have no problem paying a premium for pigs raised in an alternative to a confinement raised highly medicated pig. You can't expect a premium price when you aren't using premium inputs and grazing methods. So many people make profits like that the USDA tracks it monthly. It's called the pastured pig report.

Thank you. Good luck on your future endeavors.

Just found your channel and I'm interested in the book you referenced. Can I get the Author's name and full title. I see a few on audible.

A question. On putting up a bear hot fence do you think the string wire is ok to use or would you go with the wire wire 14 Or bigger

This guy is the spitting image of Jake Busey, the actor !

As long as you don't pretend this is in anyway humane.

Very interesting to understand how you work with the soil where the pigs live. I was thinking of using carbon in some form, eather wood in some form and the carbon and pig manure will bound but its still the part with low PH that needs to be solved with lime as you informed us. Thx!

No electric fence what keeps them from jumping up mine would get out of that in a heart beat unless it’s cattle pannel buried 2 ft deep

I don't see it....I'm 63,life farmer, livestock, 10 brood sows,2 boars, 100 capacity top hog finish floor. 1/10 acer is a myth unless inhumane

You have a really good set up

More than a 1/10 of acre why you lie

I have injected ivermectin into cupcakes and gave to 4 piglets I purchased from a friend. It worked well cause two of them shit out long worms, I’ll never eat spaghetti the same again

Very interesting, thanks for sharing!

I think it looks good, well thought through. Since pigs like to experience things, i would like for them to have new branches each day or anything where they can play and figure things out. Thx

Excellent work. The cow experienced almost no stress, and this is very important. But you also need to be sure that the end of the hose has smooth rounded edges to make it easier to pass through the esophagus and not to injure it.

Can a guy compost pig manure. I scrap my beef corals clean and make garden compost

I was knocked onto my back not knowing my landlord age 82 had a cattle electric fence in back.of the house i rented in 1992

I am.being attacked.by men coming onto my 30 foot wide lots and 85 x2 long and human traffickers too even a woman! They come by 2's

Thank you I'll definitely be reaching out to the power companies about these posts!!

Is this the gas that all the climate crisis people are talking about? Ridiculous!! Thank you for helping his little guy and showing us!

Just like the time I ate 2 pizzas…wish you were here!

Who else was dry heaving by minute 3?

Your numbers look pretty similar to what i'm estimating as i start out my operation. A little context for the unrealistic numbers coming from other youtubers though. The $1k per pig guy is charging a crazy price per pound for pork, and because of a few factors, people are happy to pay it. Most of us don't have the customers for that. As for the video where the other guy mentions the 60k number, i think he mentioned raising 300 pigs, and grossing nearly 200k before factoring in expenses. So his profit margin is totally within reason there, but the scale is way more than most folks can manage, and the input costs would bankrupt a lot of us before the pigs ever went to market. I think what you present here is a lot more honest about the realities of farming.

Good work

Wooo! Happy cows

This method is certainly more humane than cutting them up and leaving the plug in them.

So for the bigger ones its the same set up really 4 feet in between the T post.

Bloat is the worst. I'd rather give birth than have bloat.

What is the intent for using lime in the resting pen?

Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking to learn about!

❤❤❤❤

Hey Robert I love your set-up and it’s very convenient for loading and unloading your pigs! I was wondering how many pigs per pen? Like how many boars in one pen and how many sow pigs per pen even with the piglets and how many sows per mating pens? Thanks 🙏 for your hard work for your setup! Hope you have a blessed day!

Very helpful thanks!

What is the point of the mineral oil? Would vegetable oil work instead as well?

How much do you feed your pigs and how many times a day and what do you feed them including supplements?

How do you keep your blue barrels fixed in place

What do you do if there is a gate in the middle of your set up?
