Is it ok to construct a pig pen without roofing? Pls I need advice. The roofing cost is too much for me as I am just starting out |
Re: Pig Farmers Lets Meet Here by femu(m): 2:45pm On Sep 07, 2015 |
Mackson01: it's not ok... pigs require a form of roofing even if it's primitive roofing |

Hello everyone,I have been following this thread from beginning to this point and I learnt a lot from all who have contributed to this thread. Please I would like to ask the house if one can feed pigs with bakery left overs,discarded fruits by fruit sellers and fast food left overs as well.will it lead to complications. |

Pig farming gurus in the house... pls how do you weigh your pigs for sale. I discovered that pig buyers prefer to use their hanging scales thereby finding a way to cheat the farmer having tampered with the weighing equipment. Also, I found out the pigs are subjected to stress and injuries with the crude method of tying the pig and hanging it up with the scale. Pray, are there no weighing scales the pigs can simply walk into and be weighed? This should save the farmer the stress of running after the pig to tie it and then labouring to carry it up to hang on the hanging scale. I would appreciate contributions, please. |

Good works to ALL on this thread. I have followed this thread keenly 1-24th page and I have also been on Nairaland for some time now, but I will say, this is the best I have ever seen. All of you guys are so matured, intelligent and with good sense of integrity. Please don't be offended that am NOT discussing matters on Bower, Farrows Growers, Tips, Weaners etc. ...(I have never heard about those terms until I started following this thread) meaning "am a JJC" All of you are wonderful minds, most especially GLORIA.-- Coming out publicly again to share a good testimony of Deji after the bashing is a huge sign of good humility from her. Am also impressed by CHARLES‘s understanding too and i guess same reason he didn’t add further derailing observations. DEJI’S sense of wisdom, maturity and quest for standard are mind blowing. My kudos to the entire gurus in pig business on this thread, you have all made my reading /learning worth it. You guys are example of the type of youth of my good Nation/Nigeria dreams. Good Job Brothers and Sisters. From West/East & North/South and from Keziehenry (1pg) to AreaFada2(12pg) and to dynamix101 (24 pg.) speaking only one voice. Sir/ma, what is the latest on the piggery Association? Please kindly update all. I will encourage every great mind on this thread to join. Regards to All Femi |

Hello house, I've bin nursing the ambition of going into piggery for a while, and now is the time to start. For a start, I want to go into Fattening and later to Breeding as space and capital abounds. Now my kwestn is this, I av up to 100k and I've goten a parcel of land to start on, there is a ready source of water on the site too, so how do I go about it with 100k capital ?. Please advice me on the ffg conditions: numba of growers to buy(male or female), type of pen, feeding .. All based on 100k capital. Tnx as I await ur contributions Sir and Ma ! |

I'm assuming that your 100k is all you are expecting to spend till your pigs are ready for sale, hopeim right? First, earmark 50% for feeding,drugs etc. Next, since you don't have pens,consider renting or construct 1 by yourself on your land. You will need to be very imaginative; use strong but cheap materials and be prepared to be making corrections regularly. I think renting should be cheaper but it depends on your location really. As per sex of your pigs, it doesn't really matter since you are fattening. After deducting 50k ,for food etc, plus watever you spend on your pen, you'll be left with less than 50k. U should be able to get 4-5 growers; be more particular about breed NOT sex. Hope this helps. Waiting for other contributions. |
