Sam McIvor needs to back up what hes saying is best practice with facts. Maybe a documentary with both views put forward equally then people could make their own informed choices. c'mon sammy, you werent this callous as a teenager!

god why dont we just put the pigs in a five star hotel? they are only breed to be consumed by us nothing more, all it comes down to if it tastes good to me I will by it. animal walefare is a JOKE! concentrate on helping your fellow HUMANS all this money and time spent on fixing a perfectly good practice which will be happy with any kind of food.

There is ways to run sows so you don't need stalls.
you can run then in groups on straw, I have 25 to 28 sows per pen, put them all together with a boar, they fight for 1 to 2 days but as long as can get away they sort things out, we don't have many thats die or break legs from fighting, perhaps 2 percent. their life and condition is heaps better than when had them in stalls. I run 350 sows indoor.
