The BEST Fencing for Pastured Pigs!

[@lindabarlow1764]

I'm a 13 male and am into cattle and ranching, but I watch all of your content and enjoy all of it, even if it isn't cattle, the more you know the better

[@3TripleR]

Same here! I’m fortunate enough to be dealing with and making videos with cattle. I love his videos about pigs though for sure.

I'm 10 and I'm a boy but I own 1 heifer her name is sandy sue she's 1 year 9months old

[@joeymartin5080]

I completely agree with you on how hard it is to keep goats in. I raised them for years. I finally went with 5ft" woven wire horse fence. supplemented with a couple strands of hot wire and my specially made goat proof locks for the gates. Never had a problem with anyone getting out or anyone getting. I love your videos too by the way. I always try to watch as soon as I see the notification.

[@FarmandHammer]

First of all, thanks for watching! And yeah I just had around 15 boer x kikos and luckily we are kind of in the middle of nowhere or else every time they got on the road they would have caused an accident. I eventually ended up using a 3 strand electric fence in front of the barbed wire fence and that seemed to do the trick (most of the time).

@@FarmandHammer You're welcome, I like to support my fellow Missourian! I think goats have a gene that makes them expert escape artists. :D

THAT'S A GOOD LOOKING HAM SANDWICH RUNNING AROUND OUT THERE GOOD JOB, 🖒🖒

[@mikedaugharty5544]

good looking happy pigies!!

[@user-yn2qe3jk6f]

Hi, we are also engaged in breeding, cows and pigs, as well as plan to train small pigs to the electric wire

[@reneloper9074]

You are such a nice young man, thank you for sharing. Those piggies are getting big, you are doing a great job.

[@johnwarren-649]

I remember the winter of 93 the snow Banks where as high as the fence we ended up putting up a hot wire for the sows to keep them an in it worked great

[@FarmandHammer]

I’m hoping a hot wire will do the trick once they are big enough. Thanks for the advice!

[@boathead22000]

pigs are looking great. they are growing so fast.

[@jamesm611]

Love the videos. You give good information. Thanks for all you do. And keep looking good buddy

[@jjcactusandsucculents-open2156]

You can really see they're grow and they're look'in good! Thank you for sharing! Stay safe and healthy :-)

[@meghanplamondon8639]

Wow your pigs have grown! They seem to have calmed down and come to you well. Can you post an over view of the area they go into before and after they move out? I’d love to see how much they can clear out. Thanks aga8n for posting! 👍👍❤️🐖🐖🐖🐖

[@ronhooks1123]

They are growing like weeds!! Thanks for sharing. Peace from SW Florida 😇!! Have a nice Memorial Day. Be safe.

[@steveadams99708]

Enjoyed the video - an interesting review. The pigs are looking great! I like the way you take care of your animals! Thank you.

[@susanmarsh5648]

My pigs would walk through that fence in 10 minutes. I think they like the buzz

[@michael7423]

your haircut looks even better without the hat lol, i can't wait for my barber to reopen so i can get my summer cool cut ! I really like the premier fence products, they should sponsor you and give you a discount code for all your subscribers.

[@FarmandHammer]

Lol my buddy actually cut it since all of the shops were closed. And who knows, they might end up trying to work something out, I wouldn’t complain if they did haha

[@michael7423]

Farm & Hammer / you have a talented buddy, your hair looks great I think. Thanks for always replying, stay safe and stay awesome 😎

[@chasefowler4876]

love the vlogs

[@healingsprings11]

Piggies are so cute. 🐖🐖🐖🐖 It's all lookin ' good ! ✌ ✋

[@megs7019]

The pigs are growing a lot , they are using what little dirt to help them cool down from the little heat!

[@carolyancy1703]

Hello. Love your show. Pigs need more shade than the little dog house. They have outgrown it. You could use the roundbale thing and put a tarp over it so they could get under it. Or not. =)

[@SasquatchBioacoustic]

Flip that hay ring on its top and strap a tarp over it. Your pigs will have some good shade when they're too big to fit into that little dog house.

[@Sincerelyselise]

Second!!! Thanks for all the valuable information

[@cheshillyard2870]

They are really growing,love them ,are you planning on breeding them,or they just for food,love you man nice videos ,you looking smart all slicked up.Hugs till next time be safe.

[@terrykunst3883]

Thank you for showing how you are using the fence. We really love the system too. What are you using for shade for them. We have a few pink ones so have to watch out for sunburn.

[@AnnieFarmerFarm]

I want one! LOL for my goats!

[@FarmandHammer]

I know they have some netting for sheep and goats as well! Thanks for watching!

[@andrewwongsam4834]

Hi, new to your channel... what did you do with the 12,000 lbs of food? Were you able to feed any of it to your pigs??

[@noahborgman9431]

How did u train ur pigs to the fencing ? Wondering if u don’t actually need a hard barrier around then and electric on the inside

[@FarmandHammer]

Everyone online recommended training them with an electric inside a sturdy fence. But these I think were calm enough that they didn’t just hit the electric fence in a run so they backed up. I would say, if you want to be safe, use a barrier behind the electric fence to train them. But these did fine without it. Best of luck!

[@jerryjohns7358]

Your Instagram link doesn’t seem to be working.

[@davidhickenbottom6574]

Your going to need a better water system. Pigs need lots of water esp as it gets hotter.

[@alonzoperkins6856]

Hey go to Justin Rose and he'll show you how you was at Pier one

[@arnoldromppai5395]

over 38 years breading pigs cows, steers , pigs are the easiest to keep in next to cows steers heifers, my whole farm just has one eletric 14ga wire run around the whole place and a bunch of split up areas with one wire. as for pigs of any size big or small one 14ga eletric wire run though the bush i huge areas, you train piglets in a small pen with one peace of 14ga electric wire 6 feet long 4 to 6" off the floor and with in a week they know not to go close to it, with one wire your not spending hundreds of dollars on a short 100" fence that one is way to small. and a lot of money spent that is not needed, in fact, i opened the wire for my sows and boar to move out of there winter living area, that leads them to the bush 2 days ago, and as of now they have yet to cross over, they walk up to were the wire was, and look around, but so far have not crossed over even for the pile of grain on the ground just 50 feet in.. i have 2 wooden gates that have never had electric on them, witch i use to move the sows out or in, they will cross that gate area in half hour at most.. , they dont cross as he has shown 99.9% of the time even at a 2 month old i have never put up any solid fence for my live stock other then chicken and turkey runs

[@pd-ox1pd]

How far from lesumit are you loading at a farm few miles south of there Holton on tuesday

[@FarmandHammer]

Lee Sumit is kind of on the opposite side of the state. I’ve been there a few times but it’s quite the drive.

[@pd-ox1pd]

So your st Louis side thx thow

[@viviangrantz2572]

Look like they need a new bigger house

[@FarmandHammer]

So they are getting almost too big for it. A new structure is in the works! But if we get them into the woods, I don’t know for sure that they will even use it.

[@viviangrantz2572]

It’s hard to believe how fast they grow.

[@bethfoster6591]

Do you add a source of water for them?

[@FarmandHammer]

Yes. Currently we give them water in buckets 3 times a day (because they normally dump them over after they get a drink). We are currently working on an automatic pig nipple drinker so hopefully that will solve the problem.

[@michael7423]

Farm & Hammer / I recycled some food grade plastic. 55 gallon barrels with 4/5 pig nipple waterers and as long as they had water in them my pigs never tipped them over, one of the barrels still smells of pickles 😂 but the pigs don’t seem to mind the pickle scented water,

[@elias032309]
