How Many Sows For My Space?

[furry critters]

My oh is wanting to build my piggies a new home in our shed,it will be 8ft long by 2ft wide. How many sows cld I comfortably have in that area? This is just floor space no levels. Thank you in advance.

About 4-6 sows or 3-5 sows and a neutered boar.

If you go for the higher number (i.e. the RSPCA minimum recommendation), I would recommed to add a hayloft or mezzanine.
