Day 6... Mortality is still at zero... Antibiotics and multivitamins have been withdrawn from their water... Birds are very agile and always eating..... Heat application is at a minimum or should I say controlled manner, i.e we monitor their behavior towards the heat supplies... During the day they pant and run from it so we just give heat during the cool evening and at night..... We plan to totally remove the heat source after day seven... |

Haliraph:For how many weeks do you want to keep them? Do you have a pen house already? |
| Re: My First Broiler Experience by agslow(m): 8:34pm On Oct 10, 2018 |
Haliraph:100 broilers to week 8 should not cost you more than 80k to 90k excluding feeders, drinkers, and pen house constructions |

Day 7..... Mortality is still at zero.. Anti cocci was administered through water... Birds are very agile, though some are having little cough which will be treated as soon as possible... Heat source have been removed permanently.... Windows open for good ventilation |

What feed do you give them? I am a complete novice in broilers production.. I wonder if I can lay my hands on a handbook on poultry management. |
| Re: My First Broiler Experience by agslow(m): 5:23am On Oct 12, 2018 |
I formulated my own feeds... |
| Re: My First Broiler Experience by agslow(m): 5:25am On Oct 12, 2018 |
Commercial feeds from my research does not give desired results |
| Re: My First Broiler Experience by agslow(m): 8:13pm On Oct 15, 2018 |
Day 11... Mortality.... Zero Gumboro vaccine was administered today, followed by multivitamins... Though this vaccination was supposed to be administered by day 10, it was rather done today because yesterday was Sunday and we could not get the vaccine.... |

So far the only issues in the farm is just cough which is being tackled with tylodox.... And one of our bird has swollen eye filled with cloudy substances for some days now, the eye is always closed... But good news, we have suspected that it was caused by worms in the eye and is being tackled with drops of Ivermectin solution directly into the affected eye... Though it is not a very recommended way to treat eye worm but it is effective... More info to come as time unfolds |
