After 12-15 months of consistent egg production, production may begin to drop due to diminishing returns. When the production figures drop to about 50% or less, it is advised that the farmer should sell them but before selling, he must have started raising another generation or cycle for continuity.

When the farmer is selling the bird (now an old, spent layer), the farmer will sell for a minimum of N900.00 per bird and there is a high demand for old layers during Christmas. The revenue realized from the sale of old layers is in addition to the revenue realized from the sale of eggs throughout the laying period. If the farmer is selling off 1000 layers during Christmas, he is guaranteed to earn a minimum of N900,000.00. The money realized from old layers will help to offset the cost of raising a fresh set of birds.

The challenge in the business is the ability to maintain the health status of the birds throughout the laying period and to keep it alive. A farmer should therefore not be looking at the earnings potentialities of the business alone but should also focus on these essential areas and how to overcome the challenges. There is a lot of potential in the business.
