Hello everyone again, i'm 15,
 
We stay in north east fife in the st.andrews area, and it's very wet at the moment!

Pigs are still on track but dad wants a new garrage first!!!!!! booo, well atleast we might have land spare,
how much space exactly do the need, i've read about 1/2 an acre for 2?

[Hilarysmum]

Hi Cameron, 1/2 acre for 2 is fine.  You might find it helpful to read through all the posts in the pig section, will give you a far greater insight into pig keeping than any book.  I am sure it will also harden your determination to keep pigs.
