The life of a pastured pig



Here’s where the pigs live. They have a little hut that has two doors; when they get excited they run around it or in one door and out the other. Really fast. They seem to think it’s pretty fun.

Their feeder is at the same end of their pasture. There are four sections with lids on them which the pigs have to lift up with their snouts in order to get to the feed. Pigs are really smart and have no trouble figuring this out immediately.

The two lines are electric fence run very low. It keeps the pigs in and predators out. The pigs learn very quickly about the fence and don’t forget either! Like I said, they’re smart.
