I prefer heritage meat breeds (duroc, Hampshire, tamworth, etc) not the lard breeds or kunes kunes They are very easy to raise! (As long as you’re not breeding them) Small 16x16 enclosure with a shade hutch is plenty for 2 hogs. They’ll typically crap in one corner so it’s easy to keep the pen clean. My pig pens don’t stink. Pigs can have a lot of personality, and they are actually quite intelligent. Fun to raise. Now, breeding hogs is a whole different thing. Keeping an intact boar and pregnant sows is a whole different ball game than just raising a few feeder pigs to butcher weight</blockquote>
