ABSTRACT:
A hog farrowing crate and pen has side finger bars which are adjustable to vary the farrowing area. Adjustability is achieved by pivoting each of the side finger bars at one end of the crate with the opposite ends secured in a selected fixed position at the opposite end of the crate. Preferably, at least one of the side finger bars is straight while the other bar has a long straight portion and a shorter straight portion at an angle to the long portion. The swingable adjustment of the side finger bars provides for varying the size of the farrowing, pre-stall and creep areas during the stages of farrowing, post-farrowing and weaning.
