GoodFaith:Oh, I'm honored. I will answer your questions. Firstly, I'm a Lawyer by profession and that's what I do for a living. I started with 100 birds just for a trial to see how profitable the business is. Currently, I have 82 birds remaining. 14 died (11 died when they were still small and 3 died when they were matured due to sickness) and 4 was slaughtered because they were discovered to be male. I bought the chicks at the rate of #230/day old bird (#23, 000). I have spent above 100k+ so far inclusive of the capital, feeding and drugs and excluding the construction of the Poultry house........ I spend about #6,300/week for their feeding and I'm expecting an average of 14-16 crates weekly i.e (if atleast 60-70 birds among the 82 lay daily that will be 70 x 7days = 490 divided by 30 eggs (in a crate) = approximately 16 crates and sold at 800/crate that is #12,800, minus the #6,300 for feed should give me #6,500 weekly... It may be more but just a rough estimate... Thank you 9 Likes |

i will love to start up something like this, would love to know the rough estimate |
Re: 22 Weeks Old Layers Not Laying Yet by Excelboi(m): 6:54pm On Dec 20, 2018 |
mudiana:They are still on grower till a considerable number of them start laying before I will switch to layers mash. I feed them with Livestock Feed Self formulated. Also note that at their early stage of laying, the laying rate will be low but will pick up gradually. Try to give them multivitamin and relax, and hope for the best. 2 Likes |

Re: 22 Weeks Old Layers Not Laying Yet by Excelboi(m): 7:01am On Dec 21, 2018 |
900warriorz:Yes, they were debeaked, I think at 18 weeks... But that doesn't mean much. Give them time, they will lay. Which feed are you giving them? |

First of all your birds have not matured to start laying....i cannot see the development of their comb. ie none of your birds have developed comb. Secondly its not a must a chicken starts laying by 17-20weeks...if after 23-24week they have not started then you should start worrying. Thirdly you need to get one of your bird to a lab to find out why the have growth deficiency and get a solution for it. |
