Told you they're EXTREMELY susceptible to Cocci. Others than that, they're great birds. EMMAACHILE: |

Turks:Yes. Studying the use of bitter leaf some far have proved effective. All the brown poos have disappeared after three days of squeezing bitter leaf in 15 litters of water per day. |

Turks: Yes they are. But i wish male and female could be sold separately. I would just buy only the male. |

IdisuleOurOwn:I know there is a vaccine for fowl pox but I have not seen it in Lokoja. I heard scent leaf cures it effectively. I also used raw Palm Oil And it cleared the skin pores under three days. My wife also put Palm oil drops in their drinking water to take care of wet fowl pox and so far looks very efficient as their slight cough stopped immediately. 1 Like |

Turks:But I have some female chicken looking very heavy oh like cocks. |

Of course. The birds are meant for meat purposes, nothing more. Their egg laying capabilities is just a plus. EMMAACHILE: 2 Likes |

Turks: Yea, I guess so. And I guess I have to abandon Noilers for now. I will have to go with what I have dreaded all these years... Rearing Broilers. |
Re: My Noiler Farm Experience (hybrid Of Broiler + Cockerel) by kayo80(m): 1:59pm On Feb 07, 2017 |
EMMAACHILE: I still want to see pics of them on a scale . From my own personal experience, average mature female Noiler of about 13+ weighs 1.8-2.2kg and the male weigh between 2.2-2.8kg. Anyone that disputes my claims should post evidence of them weighing otherwise. As much as I love Noilers, they ain't the way to go if you want to go commercial. People will price your female chickens as if they are pricing old layers... 1k3...not knowing how much you have spent raising them. No matter how much you get to sell the males, it can't make up for the shortcomings from the female side. |

EMMAACHILE: My birds haven't contacted it, I just want to vaccinate against it. The reason why I am asking if it is sold in Lokoja is because here , they say they sell 1000 dose, and it is sold for #4000. In this recession fa! That's why I am looking for where I could purchase for even 200 doses. My birds are 12 weeks and 4 days today. And it is advisable to vaccinate them 4 weeks prior to when they start laying, I don't want to take chances by not vaccinating them. And alsoI noticed some are losing weight, maybe it is the feed that caused it, I don't know. There is what Igala called '' kpebuu''. The feed '' kpebuu'' and there is lice inside. |

Turks: I keep reading about them dying. I never have those kinds of experiences with Cockerels or Noilers. I raised 102 Noilers for the first time, and I lost just 2...and that was due to my own carelessness. |
Re: My Noiler Farm Experience (hybrid Of Broiler + Cockerel) by Turks: 2:27pm On Feb 07, 2017 |
Try your hands on them. Follow the management practice of Noilers and you won't go wrong. kayo80: 3 Likes |

Day 104 You can see the cocks are more active and very hard to remain on the scale and will jump at the slightest chance. So far out of 51 noilers 2 lost 9 cocks in the pot/freezer 40 noilers remaining 1 Like

Winniewatch22:Budget for an average of 20 broilers to 8 weeks 1 Like |
Re: My Noiler Farm Experience (hybrid Of Broiler + Cockerel) by Nobody: 5:47pm On Feb 09, 2017 |
kentochi:You are welcome. I encourage you to do this as it will be interesting to you as the farmer and your household. My own 5 and 8 year old children even knows when it's time to change their water and food now. Mine is strictly for personal consumption though with about 15kg meat in my freezer now. 1 Like |

EMMAACHILE: Ok. Pls are there other species apart from broilers? Can I interbreed them? what kind of feed can i give to them. Thanks |
Re: My Noiler Farm Experience (hybrid Of Broiler + Cockerel) by Nobody: 7:11pm On Feb 09, 2017 |
Winniewatch22: Cockerels =20-24 weeks Noilers = 14-16 weeks Broilers= 8-10 weeks If you want to free range, your best bet is cockerels. Feed is best on commercial feed. |
