Have an acre and want to use them for clearing/rooting ability. Can they rid the land of blackberry vines? Live in NW Wash. w/ trees but no real pasture & plan to raise until fall. How much food will they require to be ready to butcher? Thanks, Jon

Does this type of pig require a stronger than average fence or does everybody just go with electric. What size of area do they need initially for pen size? Does sex matter when raising pigs for slaughter? How long can the pigs be left alone assuming they have a self-feeding apparatus? How much area does each pig need to forage?
