>what do you feed them?
Animal feed/pellets. 3 kinds, one for the young ones we send off, one for pregnant sows, and one for lactating sows. They're all kinda similar though. Also silage every day.
>do they have space to run around and stuff?
Yes, they're in individual pens when having piglets (they can turn around and stuff, no cages), and in between having kids they're grouped in a large common area where they hang out. I don't have any good pictures of that but here are some chilling.
>Do they actually like running around?
Sometimes. They seem to prefer relaxing but sometimes they'll start running around really fast. They're way faster than you think. Smaller pigs are more active than sows though, and need more stuff to keep busy with (silage, newspaper, sawdust like in the picture) or they start biting each others tails and fighting.
>How do you kill/euthanize them?
Claw hammer if they're small. Bolt gun+knife if they're bigger.
