It can be gotten anywhere including feed sellers. The KBC 10% is meant for broilers. Its cp of 23% starter, 22% grower and 20% finisher is below nutritional requirement for turkey.

Turkey need at least 28% starter feed.

See the picture below
Looks like a case of Coccidiosis in chicken...caused by a protozoan in this case, Eimeria specie. The oocyst destroys the intestines with evidence of haemorrhage (the blood you see in the intestine). And infected birds shed this oocyst in the litter contaminating feed and water. You could give an anti-coccidiocidal drug like Amprolium( in the drinking water) . Be sure to change the litter and avoid spilling water on litter too.

Hmmmm,

Poultry feeds like we all know take more than 85% of our cost in poultry production. In fact I always tell pple coming in fresh to dis biz that you should just take it that you are selling feed.

Now your question, there are 2 ways to come about feed, commercial feeds or mill your self. Depending on your environment and how much u av in your pocket. For starters with little experience I advice you go with commercial feed from a REPUTABLE organisation, like topfeed, amo, vital feed and co.

For broiler production, you use starter and finisher, the basic difference between the 2 is the protein and energy composition.

For egg production, you will be saddled with chick mash or starter( i use starter, i dont use chick mash-- personal prefernce), grower which is low in protein content and finally the layers ration.

Honestly, if you intend milling your feed, i always advice you use a nutritionist. So many pple go about with different formulas which dey cannot explain or defend but they will tell u it works for them.

In poultry, it is good that you are able to identify the root cause of a problem to enable you address it well and reduce your risk

Buy birds from reputable farms and if you will use commercial feed, buy from reputable organisations with good trade marks.

How long are we suppose to use the starter before switching to finisher

Change to 2 fresh pepper or atarodo and 1/2 onion bulb to the 3 litre water.

Are we supposed to blend the pepper and onions and add it to their water??

About 70 birds. Self- compounded feed(21% crude protein). Feed equivalent to Top feed.

Today is 14th November, and Christmas week is approximately 5 weeks from today.

Your birds are already 5 weeks old as stated above. I am strongly feel you do not need a fattener, all you need to do is continues feeding(none stop) with light available 24-7.

Get a good multivitamin like nebro, bio vit-plus etc , good bio security ensure your litter is dry ( no coccidiosis) and administer ur lasota as at when due, lastly de-worm the birds at five - six weeks.

I can confidently assure you, that you will get a good result.

I will like us all to always bear in mind that the birds we raise are for human consumption, as such all practice must b to standard.

All the best

Try Asbona although 2 days is not enough for a broiler to overcome rickets
