A beautiful mind! Op God bless you. There are so many arm-chair and online Farmers on this forum who are quick to sell ebooks and extort money from newbies. I was actually looking at goat rearing until I sat down with a friend who mentioned pig farming being more lucrative. He said the mother was into it then. I am planning on starting a farm shortly but I can't start it around my present location as it is purely residential area. My folks will be moving to the city outskirt and that is where I intend to set it up. I will be visiting twice or thrice weekly Because I have a Normal 9-5 job. I have always believed in starting small in any business endeavor. For goat then, I was thinking of two/three female and a male. I already know that money won't start rolling in until 1.5/ 2yrs. Op what do you think about goat farming (sorry to deviate a bit), I see them as hardy animals that can survive harsh conditions (don't know about pigs though). I'm am keeping my mind open. You also mentioned pig community. I don't think we have that around here(warri). Thanks once again. Following your thread keenly 1 Like |

nams77: Tanks..... Goat rearing is fantastic and its something i also want to venture into in the nearest future when we are fully settled with our piggery. They require lesser care and are relatively inexpensive to feed when u compare them with pigs or poultry (the craziest livestock to rear). You can rear them alongside your pigs and u can rear both eastern and northern breeds too. As per your location, pig farming is nonexistent in warri. I know this because buyers come to Okearo and Ikorodu from Warri and load specially constructed trucks with animals to sell down there. I dont know why there arent piggeries but i believe u have a real ready hungry starving and underserved market. You need a very long term deliberate strategy to keep u on the front edge of the market there. 2 Likes 1 Share |

dynamix101:I intend starting small. I'm always an apostle of organic growth. What's your take on me starting with two female pigs and a male for example? I may make inquiry and see if I can join them in the buying and selling, if my job will permit me |

dynamix101: Good Analysis on Piggery you've offered...... Kudos Let me correct something about the Sow also, the set of teats(nipple) of the sow should be checked to be same number in each row. It is not only the boar that should be made emphasis on more. 4 Likes |
