What is the gestation period for the domestic pig?<\/h2>\n

It is at this time, gestation, that piglets form and grow inside of the sow. Generally, the length of time a sow is pregnant, or gestating, is about 115 days, or 3 months, 3 weeks, and 3 days<\/b><\/p>\n

Mother pigs can usually breed twice a year and produce two healthy litters. Their pregnancy period is short only about 3 months and 3 weeks which helps them breed more often. Duroc pigs do have slightly larger litters, at around 10 to 15 piglets. Compared to the average pig, this is quite high.<\/b><\/p>\n
