How To Load Pigs On A Trailer With No Stress

[@travisgalay8427]

Thanks for sharing. I've watched a few videos now from other channels and you guys made it look super easy. Most people have to use a ramp so I was surprised those pigs just climbed on.

[@YouCanFarm]

A ramp can definitely be helpful, but most pigs are capable of hopping up a short distance.

Have they ever chewed thru your trailer wires or caused damage to your trailer while you are leaving them alone? Just curious as I’m preparing to load for the first time this weekend.

[@YouCanFarm]

We have not had pigs cause damage to the trailer wires, but if the pigs can get to them then they could cause damage to them.

[@allysondrumhiller6079]

In your video it didn’t look like they even went around to the tongue/front of the trailer. I’ll see what happens. Thanks for sharing your experience

My issue is working out what size trailer I need, I can never find information on the length and width of pigs

[@YouCanFarm]

Virtually any livestock trailer will work for pigs. Anything 4'x8' or larger would be fine, depending on how many you wanted to transport.

I just built a box on the back end of my 7x12 utility. Works great and it's removable

What size trailer are you using thanks

[@YouCanFarm]

The trailer is 12 foot long, I think,. It is a friends trailer. Thank you for watching!

Do they ever think of anything but food?

[@YouCanFarm]

No, not really!

[@jeff7764]

Cruel 😬

[@YouCanFarm]

It's a part of farming.

@@YouCanFarm I don’t eat that garbage so to me it’s cruel and unnecessary! You have your opinion and I have mine. I’m 6ft 215 lbs heavy highway construction worker who doesn’t eat meat and proud of it 😎
