Turns out I was wrong about the gilt having 19 pigs, we found 2 more dead pigs buried in the straw so she had a total of 21. Certainly way more than any other litter I've had. So that means that of the 21, 5 were born dead or got laid on and 4 were killed by the other gilt in the pen. I had to separate them to stop it. I think she thought they were competition, but we will see how she handles her litter in a couple weeks. That leaves 12 living pigs so far. Not happy to lose so many, but 12 is a good size litter for a gilt anyway and if they all grow I will be pleased. I did get time to fence off a couple corners in the pen to give the pigs a couple safe places.
I didn't remember to take a pic of the pen changes, but I closed off the corner behind the post in the second pic giving the about a 5ft by 4ft little pen and put a heat lamp in there.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
