4 X 4 X 4?

At that size you could have 500 IMHO. However if your water is warm and you feed them they will grow very fast and be much larger in no time. How long do expect them to be in the cage?

There are numbers out there that are quite high for cage rearing but I always er on the conservative side.


If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
