We all know that it's 114 days that the sow will farrow, but is there a time when exactly will it be?  Morning, highnoon, afternoon or evening?

You cannot predict it. THere are times when it would even be 5 days after or 5 days earlier than 114 days. You just to be observant to their action.

Usually before farrowing they will make a nest or they seem to dig the floor. Some discharged from their vulva will be notice and if you press the nipple there is milk following.

No particular time. For what i have experience it is anytime of the day they would farrow. 

Some say that the sow would farrow more in the most quiet and more colder part of the day but so far it is not always true per my experience.
