Default RE: Hog Rut?

ORIGINAL: Tree climber

we have pigs born every mo. of the year in north central Fl. where I'm located.I trap and see them in all shapes from in heat to haveing pigs in the trap.we catch pigs and sows year round,more in mid summer than other times.I also think it depends on there food sourse and amount of hogs in that area.
Of course TC, all the sows don't get bred at the same time.


Gestation - The 113 to 116 day period when the sow is pregnant from breeding until farrowing.
3 months, 3 weeks and 3 days.

Heat - Refers to the estrous period for the sow. The first estrous normally occurs 3 to 5 days after the pigs are weaned.
Weaning is usaually over in 12 to 14 weeks.
