If u can move the hogs out of that pen try tilling in some lime..........or spread the dirt around cover it with diesel/ gas mix and burn it off.

 I keep a barr  hog in a 8 x 16 pen for working dogs. When I first got him I fed him slop and the smell was pretty awful. Now I feed him
Purina Stock Grower Cattle feed. 14 %  protein. $9.49 per 50 lb.  Feed him 2 quart cans once a day and he is healthy and growing.
There is no smell since I started feeding him this feed .

Get a couple bags of lime and spread it out. Turn it over and put another bag or two of line. That will orders and dissolve the waste.

God bless and miracles happen. The old way is still the best way. Let a dog open every once in awhile. Want hurt a thing.
