After administering LaSota vaccine yesterday, we have lost 9 today. I would appreciate expert opinions and probably any vets in Ilorin to come check them up.

idrisaleo1:


Yeah, most likely. It's saddening to see the numbers we have lost ever since administering the LaSota on day 6 sha. Lost 20 or more birds now. I need help, please.

idrisaleo1:
Day 22 in pictures...

organicfoods:
I will advice you to use wood shavings...I found out saw dust will lead to CRD. They have poor nostrils and can get blocked by the small particles easily, which can Lead to difficulties in respiration.

Nitoriolohun1:

There are ways lasota is administered and also gumboro..

How many dose did you give to them?

Don't administer lasota when the weather is hot so I advise early morning or late evening

Addasachet milk to the mix up for easy absorption...

By the way for a first time farmer 400 birds is much for you ...
Success anyways !!!

idrisaleo1:


They are getting better. Still one or two mortalities. We started losing them in numbers after the vaccine. No death today but there were two yesterday.

Attached is the mortality record.

drdeath:

Oga no need of all these sakamanje vaccines.
They need to be outside under the sun.
You grind corn,rice into pieces for them.You also provide them with water.They need to be stepping on the bare soil with their foot.
They need the sun for growth.
You will lose over 70% if you are not observant!

Shedrack777:
stop giving them all these lasota and whatever, the only best medicine that works for these birds is amoxiline. it is what i always give my birds and no loses or regrets. only give them their own medicine of eating food. but for their health, amoxiline does the job better than any medicine

idrisaleo1:


Bro no money for now jare...just bought the sand yesterday. Hoping to see how this pans out...

idrisaleo1:


Ordered on greenphields website...

idrisaleo1:


Na the expense deh give me headache o. And I think sand absorbs their poos better. I don't plan to clean for at least six months. I hope to have enough sand. Like two truckloads.

Redomi:
I still don't know the difference between noilers and Kuroilers. To me they are same.

Proudlyomonna:
May Chukwu kere Madu na muo,Onye na-enye Aku na uba na udo grant you good Success in Your Business...
Isseee.

Theyrem:
I suggest you plaster them walls before you introduce your birds. They peck on blocks not plastered and that obviously isn't right.

iykejohnson:
May God increase you in all angles.
The bird business is cool

Am not an expert .
—Remove that newspaper and Buy and apply saw dust from any timber near you .
Buy stove to heat them at night and early morning before sun set , if you don’t have electricity .
—-Morning water should be vitamins ( any recommended one from the veterinary will do).

—-You need to have disinfecting point to place beneath your shoes before entering to avoid infections because they’re still tender.
—Change water regularly and wash their drinkers with morning fresh not detergent.
—- adequate space to avoid congestion.
This is want I learnt from a veterinary Doctor when I was into this kind of stuff.
Lastly , engage a specific qualified veterinary Doctor who can come to visit your farm and advice you in case of any circumstances that arise.

idrisaleo1:


What are the disadvantages to using sand?

brandsoncharlie:

Hope you bought a good lasota and administered the correct dosage to those birds.

olab059:


From the pictures, they are not flying on top of the drinker and feeder to sit and poop. That's nice. That's one thing that used to get on my nerve when I was raising Noilers. Once they get to 2-3 weeks, they become super active, and start flying on top of any elevated spot they see, and pooping there.

Redomi:
Meanwhile I'm trying something new with frizzle feathered chicken

olab059:


That looks like sand, not sawdust.

idrisaleo1:


We aren't immune from this problem boss. How do we prevent it, please?

Redomi:
Also naked neck
