Hey Chris! Just curious. How wide is the aisle between the pens where you move the pigs to the loading shute?

Must have missed where you've talked about pig waterers. So why not use a pig nipple on a barrel? Or a pig nipple screwed to a 4x4? That what i was going to use instead of rubber bowls.

Missed this sorry , they break them off even if you put them through a post and use metal pipe and they stay frozen in the winter . Nipple waterers are made for inside a building outside waterers are a metal bowl with a paddle at the front but they stay broken too , we used them for decades . I'd rather just water them twice a day than come home dead tired and have to fix what they broke and deal with flooded pens

@@Bigjcomeon not as bad but yes occasionally after they get 200lbs or so , best answer I found was to use all metal pipe through an 8 by 8 and a valve that would stop the water if the flow got high ( sorry I forget what they're called ) but they still froze or got broken enough I just gave up honestly and went back to troughs . They work good for little pigs try them you might have better luck

How do you block them in the trailer while you move the trailer to shut the door?

@HomesteadingtheHardWay 3 жыл бұрын
You don't have to move the trailer to shut the door , most hog trailers have sliding doors but if you had to a cutting board would work

I just have a broken down more of a horse trailer. It don't have slider doors. Maybe I can get some sliders fabbed up, that can swung out of the way when trailer used for other things. Thanks!
