Do you want to start a pig farm in Nigeria? Come with me round Eddy Integrated Farms in Eneka, Port Harcourt. We have been raising pigs for two years, and today we have 24 pigs on the farm. In this full farm tour I show you our pig house, our Large White breeding sows, our gilts and weaners, how we feed them, how we keep the pens clean, and my three lessons for every beginner. In this video: Why we keep Large White sows, and what to check before you buy your first sow or gilt The heat cycle (about every 21 days) and pregnancy (about 114 days: 3 months, 3 weeks and 3 days) Feeding: we feed adult pigs 2 times a day, and one 50 kg bag of weaner starter feed costs us about ₦35,000 Weaning at about 8 weeks, and changing slowly from creep feed to weaner feed Deworming, cleaning and biosecurity: how we stop sickness moving from pen to pen For any drug or injection, follow the label or your vet.
