I had four growing kids. Some of my friends had pigs. I thought that one way to go to save money. I bought two pigs. About one week old. First they in little wood box. When they were too big for the box, I put in to fence. But not built good. They come out and wreck my yard. So, I dug a hole with my backhoe. Stick them in that. Good. They stay in. No way they can break. I bought small feeder but they eat 100 lbs. bag feed in three days. They get big and fat. One day we had heavy rain. Pig pen was full of water. I come home from work at midnight. They standing back feet. Stick nose out of the water. I start back hoe. Dig deeper hole and took water out. By the way, feed cost me $400. Meat was too fat. When eat, blood pressure sky high. Kids get mad. Not eat. We feed all of them to greyhound dogs I was raising. Pig cost more money than buy at Sam's.
