Big enough...pew pew pew.

Sorry I can't help, I'm horrible at judging pig size.

It's hard to judge due to nothing to scale to. One for sure is a bor. He has a set of nuts sticking out.

Bird hunting any Joe?

Bigger than they need to be. Like fish said, hard to tell without some perspective.

The hog hunting show on TV would say those are 250-300 lbs but I think they exaggerate a little bit lol

I'd say around 150-200. Tell Tamara to get to work.

I would say 75-100, but the ON rule is that every pig is 300+, even at birth.

Big enough to throw on the pit, for sure.

Trap might work for a while but that plywood will take a beating. Those pigs are some destructive ruthless smelly bastards.

This. You might want to bolt on some steel weight/bars at the bottom. I had them pull up a fence post at my gate already.

I can't see a plywood trap lasting very long. We have one made out of pretty heavy wire panels and it's bowed out on d dry side from them ramming it. They are some bad mofos.

funny thing is... I built pretty much a carbon copy of the trap bleedingpurple posted in this video which is posted in his how to trap hogs thread...

The door on mine is 3/4" treated plywood also...

I know with cows, if they can't see through it they won't try it. Maybe the pigs will push elsewhere- and I suspect that will be the case- and the plywood will be fine. 3/4 plywood is pretty dam sturdy.
