If your hog sleeps soundly it can be done then. I gave a boar a shot once while it was sleeping at night. Had to quietly come up from behind and slowly insert the needle and give the shot. He flinched slightly, but never woke up. If you have help you can also take some feed and throw it into a corner and use a small gate and trap the hog momentarily against a wall while the other person quickly makes the injection. It all depends on how the hog responds and how good you are at keeping the situation as calm as possible. You don't want to give the shot to a hog that is panicking and end up breaking off a needle in it. Of the two methods it is always easier to give the shot to a hog that is off its feet than one that is up and moving.
