A good friend of mine built his out of 6 ft chain link fence that he got for free at a fence company.You must use the heavier gage link fencing, not the light gage, The hogs hit the fence and it held fine.,,No problem..The 4 in x 4 in pannels are called utility pannels, not cattle pannels, and they will run you about $50.00 bucks each so that is not what you want if your trying to go as cheap as you can do the mathand see real quick. . He ran 3 strans of barbed wire above the chain line fencing about 8 ins apart. A hog can jump out of 5 ft and sometimes 6 ft fence so thats why he put the barbed wire. Post is where you can spend a lot of money. They make the 8 ft T POST . The size of your pen depends on how much wire you can obtain.The bigger the better. My friends was round and about 30 ft diameter.
JUST MY OPPION,,,LAVON
