You can keep up to 150 then. You'll have to be conscious of ventilation though as broilers need a lot of fresh air! smiley

Yea so many indeed but none that i know of with the intention of sharing info to educating us.Most of the whatsapp groups on poultry are for business...you'll have to pay before they enlist you with the real group.

Get a bucket... fill it with water to some level..add the feed to it and stir it thoroughly then cover the bucket.
Always ensure that you stir it daily(like 4 to 5 times in a day..for 3 days) make sure that the water level is always above the feed.
If you get this right..within 3 days your feed is fermented and ready for use.
LAB is just to fasten the process i.e if you add LAB to the 'concortion'..you can start using the feed the following day.

Another dead bird today.I realised I have picked 4 dead birds at the same point for past 4 days.Had to rearrange the pen by putting feeding can at the spot so that birds will not perch there and stampede one another.Hope it works[/wen u gv vaccines....

Lost the last 8 wks old turkey of my 2nd batch today.
I lost the cost of buying the birds and the cost of feeding them for over 8 weeks - very painful

I am on the 3Rd batch of birds in my backyard.

The first batch arrived 23/05/17 - 50 FIDAN broilers and 5 foreign turkeys ordered from poultry plaza.Culled 41 broilers at 9+wks and put in the freezer to sell to neighbors and friends, lost the 5 foreign turkeys.

The second batch arrived 16/06/17 - 50 Zartech Cobb 700 and 12 local turkey ordered from a nairalander.This batch was supposed to be better than the first but I started losing them right from the day I got them.Before 2 wks I had lost more than half of the turkeys and like 20 broilers-hard luck you would say.


This thread is for the third batch which I received on 21/07/17. i wanted to order for 100 broilers and 20 foreign turkeys when I started the thread but I later changed my mind when I got to know the wayo most of these agents play when you order for birds.

A short story--- I reside in Abuja but I am originally from Ibadan.i spent the best part of my life in Ibadan at Oluyole Estate where most hatcheries are.
So when I was about to order the third batch,my brother in Ibadan let me know that he could get them for me from the open market by Obasanjo farms in Oluyole and give to the drivers that normally hang around teachers' house.He gave me the prices and I realised that it's a lot cheaper.He even told me about how the agents used to change cartons and birds.
I eventually saved lots of money and got healthy and quality birds at the end of the day.
I had no plans of buying plain carton but when I discovered a childhood friend with a quality breeder,he sells day old chicks too...so I picked from him a carton of broilers + 10 extra birds at N80 per bird,4 foreign turkeys at N1400 and 6 local turkeys at N350.
I also bought a carton of Sayed at N130,at a time the agents were selling at N160/170.I bought a carton of male line at 150,agents were selling N190/200 then.You can imagine how much I saved.

Dear Nairalanders,pls be informed that you can book your birds directly from all hatcheries on phone if you have their contacts.You can get the contacts from their websites.i am sure of Nastech,Zartech,Foresight,NPG...Also Amo but their minimum order is 500 birds.
Let us try as much as possible to avoid these agents that sell substandard and unhealthy birds,or change birds from branded to plain cartons.It's always painful when you invest your hard earned money and achieve nothing at the end.

please do you have cascada hatchery contact?

POULTRY PLAZA IS A FRAUD

I paid for Noilers via their online payment portal and the payment went through but they decided not to give the products and would not give me back my money. They told me to go to Access Bank, but Access bank gave me proof that the transaction went through, but they still would not give me either my money ot the Noilers. I am going to file a case in court against them. No Nigerian should have to go through this nonsense and I am going to make sure they don't do it to another person. THEY ARE THIEVES
