sparkleeeeee Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 does anybody on here keep pigs in a wood? i know jimmy does, i just wondered if they minded it if its abit wet in the winter? i could fence an area of paddock off for them as well but i know they like woodland to forrage. i will have to keep an eye on their feet as if they are in a wet wood but i am not sure if they would be so keen on the idea. its not deep water or anything, just a bit boggy in places. i know how pigs love mud!! i am just thinking about getting some livestock and deciding what we can have to keep us fed over the year.

bronze Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I think its pretty much their natural habitat isnt it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
