Since I have been very vocal about this personal project of mine, I guess some of you are already aware of what my plans are for this hog-raising or piggery business that I'm trying to put up. Since I started putting my interest and attention into it, I told myself that I want to take this business seriously because it might be something that will lead me to the kind of business that I would want to manage in the future.
Who knows one day, I will actually get to have a huge farm where there will be different animals and a huge space to plant all types of fruit-bearing trees and vegetables that I want. Well, this is just me daydreaming again.
Anyway, some time ago, I have shared through an article that I published before that I bought 9 piglets using my Travel Fund, and most of the money came from my Bitcoin Cash earnings. It was last April 12, 2022, when I finally decided to buy 9 piglets already to actually take an action and start with my plans. So it's been 4 weeks already since we acquired them and I'm just happy to witness them slowly grow as days pass by. Sometimes, I am the one feeding them and I enjoy doing so because watching them eat is like a stress-reliever for me. It's like I'm watching a mukbang live show. Lols!
And upon careful planning and decision-making, I have made a decision to buy some piglets more to add up to the ones that I already bought since I still have extra money in my savings account that I was saving for my Cebu Trip and Daily Savings. I thought that if I will just use it to buy piglets, my money might earn more profits on them than if I will just let it sit in my savings account.
So I told my mother to look for additional piglets that I can buy, which she will also grow since she's my partner in this business. And after telling her about my plan, she immediately found a seller of piglets. She's just so quick because she knows a lot of people in our place.
And before April ended, we checked the piglets and discussed the price of each of them. The seller priced them for 5,000 pesos ($100) each and I was surprised by how expensive it was. I only planned to buy 3 to 4 piglets more, but my mother told the seller that I will buy all 7 of them and I was left dumbfounded. Since my mother thought that it was already a good deal and the piglets have a good breed, I just agreed to buy them all. So last May 03, 2022, we went there again to give the payment and to bring them to their new home.
And now, I have a total of 16 piglets to feed, 16 additional reasons for me to keep hustling and grinding so that I will have funds to buy their food since they are just so good at eating. As of this moment, I already bought 4 sacks of Starter Feeds for them to consume and I'm estimating that they will get to eat about 30 to 35 sacks of feeds or even more.
I know it's still too early to say but I'm already claiming that these piglets will grow healthily and they will help me to achieve my plans. Manifesting it! 💫
That's a lot of piglets! Where do you keep them? I hope your piglets grow fast so you can sell them for profit. Good luck and more blessings!
