    Great, happy looking pigs and chooks! Fabulous. Appreciate your time in doing these videos. :-)

    Anyway you could elaborate on how that bridge for the pigs was made? I need something like this but just starting out on my own. Thank you for all you do on your channel!

    Richard, I have been watching your and many other permaculture 'farms'
    My question, allowing for differentials among the many, how many people does it take to fully care for your farm, and how many acres(hectares) are is yours?

    hey have you tried sprinkling grain before pulling the cages forward to get the birds to move

    your constructions looks pretty similar to what I'm doing, training my pig to walk over and by greenscreen

    Don't they get infested with ticks during summer?

    and so what holds the bridge together? is it roped or nailed together? Thanks for the quick reply

      It was in the last video if you want to check. Just 4 logs with mud and grass I think from memory.

    Have you thought about building a pond high on your land and using the pigs for gleying?

    • @andreafalconiero9089
      @andreafalconiero9089 5 років тому +1

      Genuinely curious -- what is the benefit of _gleying?_ From what I can gather, this is a process whereby soil becomes flooded and anaerobic, causing a reduction of the iron, as well as other soil changes. What I can't find any information about is why this would be beneficial. Any links you could provide?

    • @swamp-yankee

      @@andreafalconiero9089 i think he is suggesting using the hogs to compact the soil of the fresh built pond so that it will hold water. I am glad to have learned the word.

    How is it that Richard is English speaking in Sweden? His daughter speaks English as well. I didn't find a bio on him other than his Permaculture stuff. Where is he from? I can't place his accent.

  • @TheApocalypticKnight
    @TheApocalypticKnight 7 років тому +1

    I didn't get it: why didn't he just load them on a truck or something and move them? This seemed like an awful lot of work just to move some pigs from A to B.

    • @Theorimlig
      @Theorimlig 7 років тому

      They're not moving them via road, they're moving them up a slope covered with young forest regrowth. And they don't have a truck or tractor.

    • @TheApocalypticKnight
      @TheApocalypticKnight 7 років тому

      How about simply tying them with a rope around the necks and leading them?

    • @Theorimlig
      @Theorimlig 7 років тому +3

      That's not how you herd pigs. That's not how pigs work.

    • @cygnusatratus
      @cygnusatratus 7 років тому +3

      Apocalyptic Knights you clearly have never worked with pigs ;-) pigs can be very stubborn and have a mind of their own. if 200lbs of pig dont want to move you can't make it. they're not easily driven like cattle either. Best thing to do is use either their curiosity or hunger to your advantage :)

    • @TheApocalypticKnight
      @TheApocalypticKnight 7 років тому

      Isn't it also a matter of what you got them used to since they were piglets? I mean, if you got them used to being driven then won't they keep the habit later on?

    Forest pigs can be fitted with nose rings so they don't destroy so much.
