I don't farrow in crates - I just rotate the sows through the pens closest to the loading chute. My oldest sow had a litter that was about a week old. I bought a registered boar that was only a few months old so I put him in the pen next to her. She was not happy. She was running him down the shared fence. I yelled at her and she quit. For the next three days she wouldn't look at me. When I went in to feed she would get up and turn to face away from me. If I moved she kept moving so she wasn't looking at me. She pouted for three days and finally got over it. Pigs are so smart it is scary.
This is no lie - same pen and hog. She farrowed when the apples were ripe. One night I was feeding and I pointed to the gate on the other side of the lot and told her that if she went and stood over there I would get her a bucket of old apples. Bet your life she did it. She's earned her spot here. She's better than either of the dogs.
