Nice but I think 1000 birds is way too small or is it just for a start.

The farm is too big for a thousand bird.

God bless your hustle.

Pls hope u did enough research concerning the current cost of feeding the birds, because many farmers around here have closed shop or reduce their stock so that they can cope with high cost of feed.

Pls sir looking at your farm which z deep litter,
1. How does your layers lay eggs on bare floor or what do u intend doing when it's time for them to start laying.

Have been confronted with this challenge pls help.

2. How do u intend packing their poo always


Pls I take God beg una answer
Re: Newly Constructed Poultry Farm by RichieF27: 8:12pm On Sep 23, 2016
If you look closely, you will see by the wall there are woods arranged in box shape.. When they want to lay they go in and lay there and it's not on bare floor there are litters inside each box.. And once it's time to clean my cleaners clean it by packing the poo on the floor with the litters on the floor and later put another after they are done cleaning ....

What I fink I should do is that before they start laying, probably a week b4. I will transfer them to the battery cage system. People are innovative now, I don't need to buy the of 90000 4 120birds. I will just negotiate with this welder to construct for me at a cheaper rate then I buy the drinker pipe and all that.


Look at the pic. Its not the imported one which z more expensive

idea too.. I must tell yo battery cages are easier to use.. But make sure there is enough ventilation when yo are about using the battery cage it's important.. Cos it enables them eat more and produce good and big eggs
