Lol, I was only asking some questions that a student would ask in a class, here is a project that have been following up and it's what I want to do, therefore I need to ask questions so as to further know more as I never and will never criticise him nor talk him down. if there was any perception about that, I apologise too, it was never intended.

Peace!!!

organicfoods:
Bros it's time to experience it real time, these questions you will answer them yourself....on the last count I have close to 5 ladies already on this track, even doing better than the result I posted here. I will want them to come round and post pictures.

dam4wummy:
My broilers are 1week 3days old today, can I still switch to organic, and please how can I get the organic materials needed. Loving what I'm seeing so far.
cc: turks and organic

Turks:
Yes sir. You can. The organic materials are readily available. Just read through the past threads and see the ones used by our Oga organic foods. You'll do right by following in his footsteps or improving on what he's done so far.

Thanks bro, but lacto bacillus! Hi do I get that

seguno2:


Please can you go beyond "want" to actually ASK them to post the pictures and their own experiences. Better still, they can create their own threads and post the link here.
Cheers.

Yes o.nigrows organic dazzled me yesterday.
The puzzling part of it all is that they have eaten just 2bags in 3weeks.
50kg feed for 51birds.that 1kg consumed per bird.yet the birds produced 800g
Isn't this FCR phenomenal? Is it biologically possible?
Pls help my troubled brain sir

organicfoods:
Can't force them oooo. At least they are reading all these.

stevejireh01:
I must confess that the result has been unreal and too good.
Remember I told u I must taste out of the meat to know the taste,toughness,and the quality of the meat.
Considering the fact that these birds were just 50 and the resources can always be gotten since they would be needed in a smaller quantity.
My challenge is about those that would be going on full scale say stocking about 10,000.My questions are:
How do one get the materials that would be enough to serve such number of birds?
How would one get the quantity of Ginger/garlic that would be enough to serve such number of birds?
How would one culture the lacto bacillus to go round on daily basis for the birds to feed on?

Have also learnt on how to treat some diseases using organic materials like bitter leaves, aloe Vera, scent leaves, bitter lemon etc, now, in a situation like these how do I get the quantity that would be enough for my farm, that means I will have to finish the whole bitter leaf in the market. Lol

OK, let's assume those materials would be packaged and sold out for those into the organic farm to but, at the end of the day you will discovered that the price of those material will almost be equal or more than the normal price of the conventional drugs that we are used to.
Ordinarily the price of an organic broiler should be more expensive than the synthetic ones that we know, but how many house hold would want to cash in?
My other question is, we are being made to understand that the birds are on daily ginger/garlic juice, now won't the meat have the smell o both ginger/garlic? Remember some people don't like that smell.

Please, am not trying to be pessimistic here but just been curious of some certain observations as have taken my time to ponder on it, I tried to check the pros and cons of the project, am sure you all know that nobody here would be bold enough not to vaccinate his or her 10,000 bird.
My post is subject to corrections so please.

Thanks for pointing out these. I have been following this thread from day one and I must confess organic foods is doing a very good job. I was going to talk about the daily ginger/garlic juice, the last time I tried those on Egg Laying birds believe me if affects the taste of the eggs, I just hope it won't with broiler meat.

EMMAACHILE:

Applying it daily would be an overkill. Too much of everything is bad.
Applying maybe once in two weeks should be more than enough to do its work.

Ummulkhair20:


Well I think it depends on how you applied it. I mean the quantity (dosage) u used n then it's not just fresh ginger and garlic,it has gone through several processes e.g fermenting with alcohol etc before getting d end product.

Ifedayour007:



Yes I know all that processes. But I still think one shouldn't be giving it everyday. With fpj, lab and imo4 on their feed, thats more than enought to tackle any poultry diseases, even without cleaning their coop, all you need are those 3 on their coop once or twice a week and also add new straw from time to time. I will create time to open a thread on how to do that. Thanks OrganicFoods for this opportunity. Without you I might not have the opportunity to share this here.

shakyriri:

Eagerly awaiting your thread pls.what is fpj,lab and imo4 pls? Are they organic ingredients ?

Monikers I guess

God bless OrganicFoods

Ifedayour007:
@shakyriri sorry do you know any Muhis in Akure?

shakyriri:

Yes I do

jfkenny:
Organic, how was the taste of the organic broiler..

organicfoods:
Are you based in Ibadan? Do you use Lacto bacillus as well? My broilers are on ginger garlic every day and no issue with weight.

Juliana7:
@ummulkhair20, pls ma'am, what herbs or fruit did u use to replace synthetic methionine and lysine in ur organic feed formulation? Thanks
