How old should my sow be to breed?

A sow should typically be bred for the first time when she is between 6 to 8 months old, depending on her size and breed. It's important for her to reach about 250 pounds or more before breeding to ensure she is physically mature enough to handle pregnancy and farrowing. Always consult with a veterinarian or swine specialist for specific recommendations based on your sow's health and breed characteristics.
