I'm going to build a bay pen sometime soon, and I was wondering if any of y'all would post up some pics to help me get somewhat of an idea on how I should build it. Anything will help!

If I could build one: pipe fencing round pen, the cover the wire with plywood or tin. Then have entrance gate then exit gate. Kinda have small shoots set up for sorting them.

  Poboy style. Tpost and panels, used wire to hold it all together. Worked for a year and a half so far biggest hog was 200# it big enough that they don't feel pressured to much so they go to the other side when you go out there. Works for me. Only use it to start a dog and build interest then they don't go back in. I was thinking about putting tarp around the bottom to keep I. Some little pigs but haven't done it yet. |

It depends on what your goal is. Do you want to train baypen dogs or hunting baydogs? I know you can do both with one pen, but here's the problem. If you train baypen dogs, the baypen is usually real clean like an arena. They have plenty of room to run and get away from a hog. Truthfully you are training your dog to bay real close to a hog. Nose to nose gets the big points in the baying competitions. In a real hunting situation that's almost never the real case scenario. Only you can know what you want to do. Best one I ever built was in the woods with bushes and briars and a creek running through it so I didn't have to worry about watering the hog. I built it 5' tall out of what I had available. JMO
