Great idea Jason separating them and making four pens, I like the person's idea of the three-foot alleyway up the center for easy access to each pen and easier to transfer pigs from pen to pen, God Bless from your Canadian Friend.
The farmer that raises the pigs we put in the freezer, told us he has to separate his boars from his sows as soon as she get pregnant. He said the boar will harass the sow to the point of aborting the babies so she can breed again. Just thought i would share
There's another RUclips person I watch and she actually put pigs in a fenced in area around her pond to fix a leak. She said they going in and out plus rooting helps turn the clay over which helps sill the leaks. If I find her channel I'll put it here. Anne of All Trades is the name of her channel. I admire everything you do plus enjoy watching the channels you two have recommended . Thanks for sharing your lives with us.
If you make a low fence from posts and iron you can make shelters in the corners by adding a roof thus keeping it simple and saving time and money. You will need to dig in the iron or add a steel rod to stop them digging. I think your plan of four pens sounds great…good luck with it.👍🏼
The red panels can be chicken coop area up by the barn for easy access and guarded area from cows and goats,and yes on a split for the pigs,breeding pens,birthing pens, and so I'll pens
Absolutely great idea for the pigs. Use 4 foot high livestock panels with barbed wire on the bottom. You could put two pens side by side with a 3 foot alley way between the other side by side pens . Gates facing each other and then you can move the pigs across the alley into another yard with a 3 foot gates that swings to close the opening in the alley. The idea is give them no space to run unless you want to. lol. So much fun to watch you build.
I get what your saying about the pigs, i can visualize it, sounds like a good idea. Make the pond in the middle and bigger? Maybe run some PEX or PVC to get water to that trenched in first, pond in the middle of call it the "Quad" pen i guess you can call it. Gonna take a lot of gates though in full quad mode, but this fence wont be that high, so it doesn't sound like it would be too hard to lift the gate panels in and out when you need/want to change configuration. Gonna need room around the outside of it though to handle feeding and all of that to each pen in quad mode. I guess you can have as much room as you need to do all that if you want too i guess?
I wish I could tell you what to do. I do like the four different places for the pig, and you just have to make another Pond. I like the wood on the Corner of when Gat gets in and out.
Jason I think whatever you decide to do with Breakfast and Hank will be best for you and Danielle I personally feel that you thought it through and that's all that is. Also please don't don't injure your "bits" cos I can't wait for you both to have a baby. Love to you both Theresa from the UK xxxx
I think that is a great idea what you guys came up about the pigs that's a nice idea you think about other people and yourself too to share some of the meat that would be lovely if you think you have a partner together 💓 you and Danielle have a wonderful week and God bless you
I’ve been watching your channels for years now and it’s amazing how you never talk about your family anymore and I get all the back history, although it’s always just Danielle’s family and not yours, JMO. I’m sorry but you and your Dad should sit down and talk it out like my Dad, sister, brother and myself and I’m pretty sure he knew he was passing away. We all got closure and I’m sorry but just have noticed this for years and it’s just not Danielle idk, life’s too short Jason.
I raise hogs and I use hog panels with a 2x8 on top and bottom with 4x4 every 4 foot apart. The pigs don't challenge the fence. My hogs are 600 to 700 pounds. Definitely separate the sow from the boars after pregnancy.
Did you guys ever talk with your neighbors and ask them if anyone was shooting the day poor pickels was shot and killed? Just a reminder for them not to shoot in your direction because you have animals.
Ur idea for 4 paddocks is an excellent one but u need to use horse fencing (it has 2x4 holes). Do NOT use the cheap 2x4 welded wire fencing, its too easy to destroy. Use the real stuff. The 2x4 holes will ensure that little piglets won't get out. Trust me, I raised pigs for 20 years. Do not cheap out on fence and u will need it to be taller than 4 ft. Thats too short, even for pigs. Plus, that makes it easier for predators to get in. Do it right the first time and u will reap the rewards afterwards. Otherwise its going to be a constant battle. Btw...I'm so sorry about Pickles. She was a sweet little girl. R.I.P. Pickles.
JASONSON and DANIELLE I’m glad that Hank is going to be a Crocker you got him because god wanted you to have him Jason I love 💕 the idea love 💞 from Ohio Irene and god bless Jason you could still use that pin for other things god bless you both I can’t wait for all the videos to come out
Pickles former pen could you use it for storage for your hay so it's protected from the animals & you could possibly tarp it from the rain? Hollar Homestead has raised several kinds of pigs & knows which are faster growers for butchering for food also. He would be great to talk to & pick his brain.
Agreed. Aint no pig gonna to dictate how I run my small farm. It's Busniss time. If Hank not no good he hads a choice long time ago - either comply or ya going to the freezer. He had his chances. See ya pig when I eat ya. Unless ya got a rescue centre there a. I dont think so.
Put a post in the center of the pond so the 4 section has a portion of the pond make a couple more of those leantos but smaller because a pig doesn't need that big of a building. Just a thought lol!
A pasture that can be separated into 4 areas is the best way. Boars will injure and sometimes kill piglets, the boys are best to be separated from the sows. I was under the impression that Hank had lost his manhood? 😂😅 Maybe I missed something in the translation. Two ponds, four pens, and a partridge in a pear tree...😅 Love ya'll ❤️
Sounds like a pretty well thought out plan. I like the 4-in-1 pasture idea a lot. There is a way to make the gates swing open to cover gaps, cattle ranchers have perfected all the ways to do that. I'm not a rancher, so their gate cutting videos will give you a better idea of what I'm babbling about😅👍
The boys are in competition...that's why Hank is bothering Breakfast... it's not that he "needs" to "get" a girl. He's just trying to show dominance, which is ridiculous with the size of Breakfast, Breakfast is clearly the lead, but poor Hank keeps trying... boys will be boys....I would definitely have Breakfast do all of the breeding. He has a better size/build and a much better temperament. Build your quad pen, that's a great idea. But put both girls in with Breakfast and have Hank secured way away in with the other animals. After you're sure Breakfast has done the dead with both of them... then put Hank back over in the "quad" and put one of the ladies in with him... he will be ok, not any trouble, because he's not in competition with Breakfast and because he has female company, but he just won't be the baby daddy. Then separate them out in the quad when the babies come.
I was just checking out at a store, I laid my phone on the counter and the young man that was working the register seen what was on my phone. I had my earbuds in while walking around the store watching/listing to this vlog. He knew instantly because he said, “is that Jason Crocker, the Crockers?!” I was like Yeah! 😊 He said yeah my mom and dad watch The Crockers all the time! Anyway I thought that was pretty cool that a teenager recognized who Jason was and just at a glance, there wasn’t any sound because I had my earbuds in.😁I know you used to live close to Siloam Springs when you first moved to Oklahoma. Hope this will put a smile on your face. You have a lot of fans, more of the good ones than the miserable hateful old farts out there 😆
I thank your ideal is a good one, hope Reba is pregnant you said when you got her they told you she was hope she is , put the chicken coop in the middle of the red pin and put fencing around it so the dogs can,t get to them when you get some more.
The red panels would be a good place to put the chicken coop for the eggs. That way they won't be stepped on by the other animals and you don't have to search for them.
Use that cage you got there for pickles to put your chickens in as a chicken run up to coop out to it and use that part of the chicken run and get some good chickens that lay eggs
Aww, I like your idea, glad Hank is staying a Crocker. I do feel the underlying sadness, again I am so sorry.....that farm life - is tough. I appreciate how y'all don't hide everything because for me & many other viewers, it does take the romanticism out of "homesteading". That's good, because the reality of it can be so different from what we tend to make of it in our minds. -much love always ~Mary & fam
Hi Jason, Good plan for Breakfast and Hank. That is exciting getting the house in town ready to sale. One less property to worry about. Do you still have the rental on Main Street Bristow? Good luck with the house sale ❤
Love the idea! What if you use the other half of the barn for the pigs? Divide and cut 2 doors and that way you can feed them all from inside the barn. Just and idea😊❤
I would just say that if you are going to have 4 sections etc for the pigs, you really need to double the size of the enclosure. It’s a great area for just two pigs but to live comfortably they really need a better area. Pigs are very intelligent as you know so giving them a great life would be a win.
You would definitely have to have a space in between the two males and the females because as soon as a female comes into heat the other male is going to try to get in with the female that's in heat
That will be fun to go to Flint and Sam place!🤣🤣🤪🤣! Pigs plan sounds awesome!!
Great idea Jason separating them and making four pens, I like the person's idea of the three-foot alleyway up the center for easy access to each pen and easier to transfer pigs from pen to pen, God Bless from your Canadian Friend.
Maybe use the red fencing as a surround for a small raised garden next year.

Hi Jason all your fencing looks good nice and straight. Your front boundary fence looks fantastic, you do have very good ideas. 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦
Great pig pen idea!
Jason I thought you had bought a sawmill when you had the off grid property.
Good plan Jason....hugs

Agree 💯% with pig plan sounds amazing
The pig plan sounds good and going to the jounds sounds like fun.
4 quadrants sounds great!❤🎉
I think your on the right path!
Love your wood fence next to the barn. Does it provide a wind break from the winter cold?
I think that is a great idea what you guys came up about the pigs that's a nice idea you think about other people and yourself too to share some of the meat that would be lovely if you think you have a partner together 💓 you and Danielle have a wonderful week and God bless you

I think it would be fun for you and Jett to have a fishing contest
Jett loves Jason Crocker he even wears his Cap 🧢 just like Jason 😅

All sounds good!
Great piggy plans!
That's a good idea I like your plan sound good
Just trade Hank for a female, problem solved. No extra work required.
Good thought😊❤😊
Good thought 😊❤😊
Sounds like a solid plan.
Your plans are awesome. Exited to se the new pigs. love you both. xox

Souds like you're planning...🎉🎉
Why is the well pump not wired in yet?
Do you need a step up transformer? They are only $100. Also, a lot of pumps can be easily rewired for 110.
I think that's a good idea Jason I really do That's smart thinking

I thank your ideal is a good one, hope Reba is pregnant you said when you got her they told you she was hope she is , put the chicken coop in the middle of the red pin and put fencing around it so the dogs can,t get to them when you get some more.
Awesome video
Thanks for the update. I have no advise, but I'll be watching!
👋 hi Jason and Danielle love you guys.🥰👍❤️
Jason that's a good idea. 😊🎉🎉🎉
The red panels would be a good place to put the chicken coop for the eggs. That way they won't be stepped on by the other animals and you don't have to search for them.
Sounds like a great idea
Use that cage you got there for pickles to put your chickens in as a chicken run up to coop out to it and use that part of the chicken run and get some good chickens that lay eggs
Good idea, just try not to have to remove any more trees.
Jason, you will still need a 4-foot fence to keep your other animals out of the pig yards.
Why would you run a generator when you have a power pole
The water hoses are laid out for Gen set...😊❤😊
I like the idea for hank and breakfast I think they would both be happy
What breeds are hank and breakfast?
Is Breakfast not a Pot Belly ?😊❤😊
I thought Hank was fixed.
Aww, I like your idea, glad Hank is staying a Crocker. I do feel the underlying sadness, again I am so sorry.....that farm life - is tough.

Hi Jason,

Love the idea! What if you use the other half of the barn for the pigs? Divide and cut 2 doors and that way you can feed them all from inside the barn. Just and idea😊❤
Sounds good, just be careful about letting him breed. He may become much more aggressive
❤🙏🏻❤
1st comment! Excited for all that is to come!
💜💜💜
Your plans sound good Jason ,
Still don't smell pork chops. A freezer makes a good pig storage unit. Piglets. Maybe breakfast had a secret change.
I would just say that if you are going to have 4 sections etc for the pigs, you really need to double the size of the enclosure. It’s a great area for just two pigs but to live comfortably they really need a better area. Pigs are very intelligent as you know so giving them a great life would be a win.

SOOOOOOOO !!!!! what the hell happened with the death of the cow ???????????
Ummm..not your business..however Pickles was buried...
❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸
3 mont 3 weeks and 3 days gestation isn’t long before they are ready to go again
Bacon Bits!!
Ummmm...nooo...lol😊❤😊
Could you put the chickens in the pen where pickels was
I think the pens for the pigs is a great idea! I think Hank and Breakfast will be happy😊
Ya that's the way mate
Take tin or metal roofing lay it sideways a old man told me that if a pig can’t see out they will not want to get out can’t jump and will not dig out
You would definitely have to have a space in between the two males and the females because as soon as a female comes into heat the other male is going to try to get in with the female that's in heat
❤❤QUE BUENO QUE ESTAN YA PENSANDO VENDER LA CASA Y DANIELLE TRABAJAND❤❤ Y TODO SE VA YA ARREGLANDO CON AMOR❤❤
You should contact simply safe and get that place secured
Howdy 🤠 awesome idea as always love you
👍
You know, Jason every man needs a woman so Hank needs his woman too
Sounds like a good plan!!
I know nothing about pigs- is the meat from a pot belly pig good to eat? 💜👋🏻
Not knowing..aren't they produced for pets ???😊❤😊
Did you call the police to investigate 🔎 the pickles deal 😮
The result is iffy and unknown.. so there is nothing really for anyone to investigate...😊❤😊
Jason, you haven’t posted anything with real substance for a long time. Seems like most of your videos are just filler.
JASON Y DANIELLE MUY BUENA IDEA QUE TENGAN LOS PUERQUITOS SEPARADOS❤
Get rid of the electric fencing. Put up better fencing. Good idea Jason
Where are the chickens? You should get some more! Luv ya!
😀🙂😃😄🫠😉😊
