Pig Farrowing and Litter Record
Keep each sow's breeding history on one page, so decisions about which sows to keep are made from records rather than impressions.
Livestock and smallholding · LK-08
A free printable pig growth chart — weights over time with the feed used and what it cost, so growth is measured rather than guessed.
One page. Choose your paper size — both versions are laid out identically, so neither one gets shrunk to fit.
Print it and write on it
Fill it in type and save
The fillable versions have real form fields — open them in any PDF reader, type into them and save. Printing help.
Track weight gain against feed, so you know what a finished pig actually costs you and whether a batch is doing what it should.
Smallholders raising pigs for the freezer, and small units finishing batches.
The layout is fixed at a size that fits both A4 and US Letter, so the A4 and Letter files are visually identical and print at full size on either. Rows are set at a height that an adult can actually write a date and a few words into with a pen — most printable tables are built in a word processor and never tested with one.
It depends on breed, feed, housing and season, and no honest figure can be printed for all of them. Traditional breeds grow slowly and are meant to. Set your own target from your breed society, your feed supplier or last year's sheet.
Keep each sow's breeding history on one page, so decisions about which sows to keep are made from records rather than impressions.
Record what each group is fed and what feed actually costs across a year, which is usually the largest bill on a smallholding.
Record condition scores consistently over a year, so changes are visible at the points in the cycle where they matter.
We are building this library out steadily. Leave an address and we will send the new sheets as they are finished — nothing else, and no more than one email a week.
Sign-up is not live yet — we have not connected an email provider, so this form is switched off rather than quietly collecting addresses.
