Broilers are young chicks of about a day old or more and Layers are matured hen and cock that mate to give birth to young ones. Layers are the producer of eggs we eat, so going into this business can fetch you double money, both from selling the chickens or selling the eggs. Broilers are young ones that are breed to adult. This also can fetch them double money, they can either sell them young to customers or they can grow them properly and sell them.

Broilers are very cheap to buy, in Nigeria, their prices are from the range of N10 – N150, it depends on location. You can’t expect someone leaving in the village or one local area to buy them at the same price as someone in the urban and more civilized area. Cost of living and cost of products are different.

Breeding of broilers are almost the same as breeding of fishes. Ways of breeding are different because some are breeding them for their own consumption while others are breading them for business. People that are breeding them for consumption might not acquire everything they needed to nurture them nicely or they might not be able to afford what they needed to grow, so they only give them what they have as food, like giving them our own daily food, giving them human kind of medicine and things like that. http://newsyinsider..com.ng/2016/08/broiler-and-layer-farming-business-in.html
