Hello there, I an so glad to find out this section that has been created for farmers. But I need someone to please help me on how to practically formulate feed for broilers bird. Lets formulate for 10 birds. Thanks so much.

It will be good if those who have done the formulations and have proved it work responds here cos ur contribution will go a long way to help so many of us

maize:45%
soya:15%
gnc:10%
wheat offal:10-15%
bone:2%
osyter shell:5%
pkc:5%
salt,lysine,meth&premix

i advice you buy concentrate then mix with maize, the proportion will be given to you, or you just buy feed. some of the ingredients gotten from pple that mix might not be appropriate for your bird which can cause stunted growth or very low production

You're sounding so negative without proffering any solutions, the young man opened a thread because he needs info from practicing farmers on formula to mix feed, so its either you have something to contribute or you just please read and pass. You Dont mean to tell me that every successful poultry farmer buys feed or concentrate.

Op, just getting feed formula might not be economical for you cause feed ingredients fluctuate in prices. I'll will share feed formulas for those interested but you need to consider cost of various ingredients in your locality. Drop your emails if intrested its free. Good luck

For the construction of the coop, you will be needing nothing less than 200,000 naira on the average that is apart from the land space, i'd assume you already have the space. This is my own practical experience when i was starting, i started with 400 layer birds and did not lose even one.

Depending on ur location, you will need to buy wood(different sizes), bundles of zinc as well as nails, net, et al. roughly 180,000 to 200,000 naira should put ur deep litter in order.

Then you will need to get ur birds. very good hatcheries will sell day old pullets at around 150 naira. your 300 will be around 45,000naira. then you willneed toget feed to effectively last the first two months which is the most critical period cos at this period they will need to eat as much food they can get, i fed mine adlib ie day and night. you will also need to get a small size generator to power the coop in the event of nepa failure. a small size gen goes for around 12k. most feeds from top feed, stock feed and vital feed go for 2,700per bag for layer mash.

300 birds will be needing nothing less than 25bags from day old to 8wks.thats about 67,500 naira. drugs and vaccine combined for this period will not cost you more than 30,000naira.

so on the average, you are looking at around 400,000naira for start up. then you will continue to spend for feed until they start to lay, but i tell you the first stage is where u will spend most of the dough.

if u are interested in milling feed urself, i can help u out. i am an affillliate to a company in Holland that manufacture excellent poultry feed. i use their feed to feed my broilers and you will notbelieve i sold them at 5wks at more than 2kg weight. holla me on 08060661311 if u are interested. i stay in Abuja. hope this short analysis helps.

e
Na true. Me sef no dey buy feed again I formulate. But sincerely, only 10 birds are not worth the stress of feed formulation. Better for him to buy concentrate and mix.

And he also forgot limestome and antioxidant.
