Employ someone for 24 hours to be in charge and compare the numbers of eggs Gotten to your previous one. After this, know how to handle your workers. |

donestk: Get an RF scanner, not barcode scanner. RF scanner please. Separate the Broilers from the Layers. Let the Layers be groomed in special compartments. Make sure only a trusted relative or staff have access to the layers unit in the morning, then use the RF scanners to code the eggs and install scan trackers at gate of the poultry. When someone takes any egg, the scanner will set off an alarm and the thieves will be caught red-handed. Also add CCTV and keep an eye on each of them layers unit. Now, what you do with the thieves, caught red handed will determine how the others will react. When you catch the thief, put that thief through initial jungle justice of slaps and kick-boxing before handing over to the police. And at the Police Station, push the case to the court, customary court system is great as they will stay on awaiting trial for months, and follow the case through until the person faces institutional justice. I do not care if it is one egg. This is how to hold down the thieves. And again, do not take this lightly, install scanners and teach these people a lesson. I have hired over 10 cleaners this year, and I have lost valuables and cash up to 1m this year alone. Today, I am calling for 2 staff to be supplied and no one knows why people steal this much in the country even when they cry of joblessness and when you hire these fucckers, all they do is steal. Stay tough and tell your aunt that the times have changed and you need to use technologies to catch these sophisticated thieves. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Install CCTV with solar systems to ensure efficiency. Use maximum security at entry and exit points. A farmer friend had similar encounter to the extent of staffs suffing eggs inside poultry droppings before moving them out of the pen. CCTV will make the dishonest staffs resgn within two months.

Am a farmer, I was also a victim of that too but what I did was that I lock the pen and go home with the key, they feed the chicken when am there and also pick the egg when am around until I gradually sack all of them, then employ anoda set of staff. Now I have rest of mind 3 Likes |

HRHQueenPhil: Did I hear you say God fearing people? Those ones are even the worst thieves. Moreover, doesn't everyone in Nigeria claim to be God fearing? The God fearing people that their daddy G O already told that this year is their year will steal your things and say it is the unmerited favor of God. They will even go to church, pay tithe with the stolen money and also give testimony of how God is blessing them in their workplace. 2 Likes |

donestk: You need few people to be accountable for the eggs, maybe 1 person. One store person. So if there are thefts, you know who to hold. install cctv, No bags allowed on entry to the poultry. install a cctv at the poultry and at the entrance or exit. randomly check whoever disobeys, sack them. Dont hesitate to sack people, or else they would sack you |

Re: Eggs Theft In Poultry: What Is The Way Out? by anidat77(m): 11:41am On Jun 08, 2018 |
Very easy solution. In the middle of the night, Install some motion activated hidden cameras , position them at different points in the place to view the eggs during collection. Get only three people to have access to the collection points. When fully charged they can record to 4 days on motion activated mode only and should tell you total number of eggs picked for 4 or more days depending on battery capacity. It has a small memory card you can swap to review videos. My Brother had a similar problem with his game cafe, always getting N2,500.00 total access ticket sales for games played for a full day. I kept telling him his staff sit around after close of work eating Suya and roasted chicken daily hin no dey hear my own. Finally he installed a camera at the payment point and from that day ticket sales jumped to N9,000.00 daily. So mitigate theft with cheap technology....you'll soon see that the gains outweigh the costs. |

YelloweWest: Exactly. You need advise of practical farmers. A female nairalander that owns a poultry farm somewhere in lagos( i think ajah or lbeju lekki area) encountered this problem. You can use your search button to see how he solved the issue. When she installed cctv, the attendants learnt to be doing the stealing at night and farm areas with lighting issue issues were hit,they also crack the eggs and put in feeder bottles and sell to mai shai and bakers around. The smaller farms around were buying her poultry feed from her workers. The way you handle the first person caught goes a long way in solving the issue. Use police yo deal with the thief and make sure the case is delayed , if possible, get the buyers involved in the case. After that, they will ear to buy stolen goods Another solution is to employ foreigners or honest hausa ppl on a 2 year contract basis. Change them after a while. 1 Like |

She should get a CCTV with an IP installed, if possible, one with 8 camera at strategic point, she will be able to view activities in her poultry via her phone or any internet enabled device, the cost of installation will be less than her loses in the long run. This is 95%. Try it and thank me later 1 Like |

Luciferan369: I have a question. CCTV Needs electricity to operate. With power in Nigeria, that is not feasible without Generator. This leads to fuel expense, or another problem if fuel is scarce. How do you manage these costs for the farm? |
