    Would mulch work as a way to build it up? Like the free stuff you can get a recycling center?

    Ok, thanks! Wouldn't the sand be bad for their respiratory system?

    What to use for bedding for hogs?

    I have a hog shelter inside their pen, and it gets really muddy and wet. What kind of bedding should I use? Wood chips, hay, straw? What's cheapest? Thanks!

    What to Use For a Hog Pen?

    I bought pigs that were a mix between two different kinds. Can't remember what off the top of my head... hampton-something maybe? Payed $75 each (female, all they had left) for 3 of them and they are about 70 pounds. Hoping they turn out well, especially since I have 3 new customers for pork!

    Awesome. Do you think I should do it on the inside or the outside of the pen? That's crazy! Was the meat really fatty?

    What to Use For a Hog Pen?

    On the pallet pig pen, it was just pallets. On this one, it's currently just a t-post, but I'm thinking that won't be strong enough. I'm using it for about 6 months...

    What to Use For a Hog Pen?

    Well, I just finished putting the fence up...so a little late for wood posts. :hide I just got a little impatient...:hide:hide:hide I have just made the whole fence out of pallets in the past, do you think it would work to surround the corner of the fence with pallets as a brace? It's 32' x...

    What to Use For a Hog Pen?

    So I bought the Combo panels, and am now building the fence. Do I need to do anything fancy in the corners? or just connect the panels to a t-post? How far apart to space the t-posts? I'm thinking 1 post every 8 feet. Thanks!

    How Much Space do Hogs Need?

    Yeah, I get it! I know how they like to make different "rooms" in the pen. :) Dining Room, Bathroom, Bedroom, etc. :) I might make it 32x32 and do rotation. BTW, what do you use to attach the panels to t-posts?
