Food Animal Concerns Trust (FACT) continues its free webinar series with this session on how to set yourself (and your pigs!) up for successful farrowing outside in any weather. Kristie Wehe, Chief Pig Officer at Mockingbird Farm, offers practical strategies to create a safe, comfortable, and productive outdoor farrowing environment in every season. This session will cover shelter design and placement, bedding management, nutrition and water needs, weather-specific considerations, piglet survival, and how to recognize and address common challenges before they become problems.
