Adult female pigs that are kept for breeding stock would move to a barn with stalls. There are two types of stalls that sows, or mother pigs, live in: gestation and farrowing. Gestation stalls are used when sows are pregnant, while farrowing stalls are used from just before birth until weaning. These individual stalls allow for individual care and protect pregnant sows and baby pigs. They are specifically designed for the pigs' health and well being, while offering protection to farmers alike. For more about stalls please refer to the FACTS section.
