@aaron7816 Pigs are highly intelligent. More than a dog. They get crazy when they don't have anything to do. Give them something to play and you don't need to cut the tales anymore. Our sows never lay on they'r piglets. It never happens because they are trained from beeing outdoors in the grassland working in the earth. They can control how they lay down. If one of the piglets cries, they stand up again and nothing happens. Can you imagine how hard it is for a sow for some week in a small cage..
Family farms do all they can to raise livestock humanely and keep the animals safe and healthy. I know several pork producers and they are as concerned about their livestock as they are their children. We want affordable food, so we have to deal with the realities of today's production.
@paulpellicci Great question. The poop goes down the slats and it stays in a concrete pit below the building. Then, we use it as a natural fertilizer in our fields. You can watch Manure Management to see this process in action. Thank you for the question.
Great question! Pigs do get sick sometimes. We are trained to notice symptoms so we can act quickly and we have veterinarians we can call to come help us decide the best treatment. Then, we follow doctor's orders. We also designate certain pens just for sick or smaller pigs so they don't have to fight for food and can get more individualized care until they are better or bigger.
Great question. Straw is generally used in hoop houses (another type of barn for pigs). Our barns have a slat/deep pit system which doesn't use straw. Instead of using a tractor and loader to shovel up the soiled hay for fertilizer we store the manure in a deep pit under the barn to use as fertilizer. Because the pigs are on slats the hay would just fall thru the floor and ruin the pit system. I hope I answer your question and thanks for watching and commenting.
Am Henry Nsambo from uganda I request to have you sponsor me in such a project like that. Because am also starting a family pig farm with limited capital for building a structure for the farm.
hmm ...was it about family or about pigs? Why dint'd they show how they castrate the male piglets and cut them the tales without anesthesia. Or how they put the sow into a small cage for weeks. I think the farmers forgot how a pig should liv. They just make what the big supermarkets want. without thinking...
@czg2012 I appreciate your comment and while we use modern technique we are most definitely a family farm. Our family have raised pigs for several generations both indoors and outdoors. Just because the look of our farm has changed doesn't mean we aren't still doing our best to protect our animals, families, and the environment from harm. I encourage you to learn more at my blog and feel free to contact me with any specific concerns.
@be74st It was about both family & pigs. We didn't show castration, tail cutting or sows b/c we have finisher barns. We don't have sows or piglets. Also, the castration is necessary or the meat is no good to eat b/c testosterone ruins meat. Also, tail cutting keeps them from biting tails which causes infection & possibly death. Sows are kept in sow crates but they don't spend their entire lives there; only when piglets are nursing to keep the momma from rolling on piglets crushing them. Then
ok I have to ask because i am considering a pig farm myself. Everything I have read says that pigs need hay or straw or something to "nest" in. I see many modern farms that don't use hay. Is there any particular reason for this besides the fact that it is easier to clean up after the pigs without the use of the hay?
I really like the space you give the pigs. I've seen many industrial farms where the lack of space is terrifying. The pigs looks healthy and nice. Yes, i am a city living person, but i really like farming to 110 percent. So i know a couple of things. But what i don't know is why some farms don't use hay for the animals to rest on etc. It must be more comfy for the animals to rest on hay? Is there any particular reason why you don't use hay? If so, i'll be really thankful for some answers. =)
Hello Windmann, I am Michael by name, I really like that way you give enough room for your Pigs, and I am about to retire from the state job. I really want to go into piggery business, is there any way I can get any ideal or training from you?
@be74st they are put back in general population. No anesthesia is used b/c 1) animals pain censor is way different then humans so you can't put human thoughts, feelings, etc. into the equation 2) it is no different then circumcision on human boys and is done while they are piglets for the same reason it is done to babies. We make a product that is healthy, safe, and I am proud to be a pork producing family.
@Popeye1117 great question. In a hoop barn system you use hay bedding but in a climate controlled barn you do not. There are reasons and pros and cons to every method. I suggest visiting farms to see which way works for you. You can contact new for more info or questions. thebaconblogger@gmail.com

The more u say "family farm" the more I realize u trying to convince people and urself about that statement, I love how u just put random kids ( let me guess family ) inside this hell and tell them to round around like this was a playground. On the on the side of those cages are kids too. Just a different species, being there without their mothers on a concrete floor, does it looks like a family to u ? How come u not showing the adult pigs? Just conveniently the little ones that are not caged? This is nothing but a lie ! Lie! No matter how many videos u make about how happy those Animals are u r contributing to a murder! Eating a creature that has a face an a asshole is never normal!!!! Something is so wrong with this picture on so many levels
To all you bleeding hearts fuck you,you didn't feel this way about slavery so fuck you. Leave these people along and let them do something you can't that's take care their family.
Cogratulations excellent farm
Nice! Very clean environment for livestock protected from predators and from weather extremes. Keep up the good work of feeding the world!

for the way it is going i have been raised in the pork industry all my life and that is what has paid the bills for my family

Why aren’t they in grass? Is this better for them?

Hello Windmann, I am Michael by name, I really like that way you give enough room for your Pigs, and I am about to retire from the state job. I really want to go into piggery business, is there any way I can get any ideal or training from you?
You absolutley did. Thanks for answering =)

raising an animal so people can eat is not murder. we are on top for the food chain, now pass the bacon gato x2
we have been killing & eating animals for thousands of years. even if you only eat vegetables you are causing animals to be killed.
To all you bleeding hearts fuck you,you didn't feel this way about slavery so fuck you. Leave these people along and let them do something you can't that's take care their family.
