@ Op: Turkey business is lucrative but not commonly done commercially. It is a seasonal (xmas) market. Moreover many prefer frozen turkeys. I have reared turkey before commercially and it is better to raise #broiler turkey# ( I mean foreign turkey). You take care of them like broilers chicken and they have good feed to meat conversion efficiency. Many people see turkey as *article of ostentation * ( things you buy to show off) . A matured turkey sales for N15, 000 and above depending on location and bargaining power. Yours sincerely. |

EZEUDENE: I have been looking for a thread on turkey as well...can't seem to find any...do I give the turkeys the same drugs, vaccines and feed as broilers? and how's their mortality rate, also if I am to raise like 10/to maturity say 8months, how many bags of feed would I have used up? I wouldn't mind if I got your number as well. thanks. |
