Boar Accommodation!

[*Meg*]

I’m makeing a upper level in my shed for my 3 boars 2 are about 7 weeks old and 1 is only a week old I really don’t want to have to buy another boar to give them
Pairs so I’m hoping to bond the 3 of them together but want to give them as much space as I can I’ve drawn up what I’m planning to do and was just wondering if there’s enough space?

Along the back will
Be 3ft wide and 6ft long then at the sides it will be 1ft wide and 1ftlong could possibly be a bit bigger not sure how many square ft that would
Be?

I don’t mean to sound cheeky or harsh however, Boar trios rarely make it to adulthood. You just have to look at the behaviour and bonding section of the forum to see. The space looks like a good size to me though.

If you have a 1 week old boar then you might want to think about contacting local rescues to see if they would take him once he is old enough? I am assuming he is still with Mum right now.
This would be his best chance of getting a good home if you are unable to keep him.
I tend to agree about boar trios rarely making it to adulthood, and the age gap between your trio isn't huge, so they will all hit their hormonal period together.
