This is actually coryza, how old are this birds.

If the broilers are above 6 weeks, while you treat with antibiotics,

Start working on selling them off, to control your cost-income ratio.

Disinfect your pen after selling them and give a little fallow period before bringing another set.

All the best

Thanks ogas. But I think it's CRD as some of them like coughing.. .i mean undue noise from throat.. Please what do you think about the other symptoms

like emmachile said, ask in ur vicinity, most frozen buy based on weight after dressing, dey don't buy on life weight.

Old do not sell below 1000 Naira/kg, if u want to make profit.

And u must be very observant when dey are scaling it.

Check d scale urself

I only hope this new nafdac rule of buying only from certified farms do not involve frozen stores! If not it will be a killer.

And if possible teach me how to calculate it myself

50 broilers * 3=150 square feet. (Eg 20*7.5 feet or 15*10 feet)

EMMAACHILE:

50 broilers * 5 =250kg of feed for 7-8 weeks
Just multiply by 5 but your management and feeding must be top notch especially the feeding has to be 24/7 or else you miss the target.
Go for Ross 308 or Cobb broilers and use a digester on feed.

big bros thank u.
But i mean housing measurement for 50 birds

crossblane1:

EMMAACHILE:

Bros I don't see the measurement.
I meant which space will occupy full grown 50pcs of broilers.
When I want to build their house.
Thank u

Thanks I have seen it.
By ur calculation that is 3ft per bird.
What is the effect of using 2ft per bird

Good oga Emma. I bought 50 broilers from Zartech on the 23/10/2018. I noticed brown watery poop from some birds and I lost one yesterday. One is currently having a watery white discharge that has coated the entire rump. The birds are 5 days old today.

Whats your drug medication?

EMMAACHILE:

Whats your drug medication?

I'm currently administering antibiotics and multivitamins. The brand of antibiotics is collimycine, while the multivitamin is multi-vitalyte.

Plz can you explain how you feed your chickens. I mean in a day at what time do you stop their feeding. I have spend so much on feed for just 20 broilers and I don't know how to ration.
