[QUOTE="Kell-inKY, post: 1307632, member: 23511"] I've been seriously thinking about raising 2 every year and am reading this for tips. One of our neighbors just put up a few hog panels, built a nice tidy pen and a shelter out of pallets (covered to look nice) and had no trouble whatsoever. Another neighbor down the way runs quite a few hogs, all over his property including the front yard :o . All of them held in by maybe 7 strands of hot wire and nothing else, runs them similar to how you do cattle. They root up a section and then he moves them. Plants a lot of turnips and stuff and they go to town, turnips are super cheap to plant too. Never seen him have a problem except some small piglets outside the fence once. I've never noticed the pastured ones smelling, but the small one with the hog panels I have for sure, a little too confined I think. [/QUOTE]
