So did the floor really keep the pigs from pooping inside?

The floor doesn't keep the pigs from pooping inside.  It's more like the pigs just choose to not poop inside.

Can you tell me how far from the wall the bumper / farrowing board should be?

About a foot.

It turned out that we needed to lower the board.  It was about a foot off the ground.  It should be about eight inches.  It needs to be so low that there is no way that a momma could get back there.  That includes a momma on her side scootching ...

Farrowing Hut looks to be about 6 ft X 12 ft.  Is that about right?

That sounds about right.  I'm nowhere near it now, so I cannot pop out and measure it.
