Hi guys, I love this group and what all of you are doing. I wanna start a small poultry farm in my town in Abia State. I wanna stock both broilers and layers and I don't know were to start from. Someone should help me do some analysis of what it will cost me to start up a 500 bird farm. I will appreciate it if someone helps me with this.

Actually the underfeeding had affected them during their growing stage, which could result in their delay in production and also be the reason of not producing to the expected production. I had such a similar case like that also that I just solved in which those birds were underfed during their growing stage and affected them a lot in which the time the ought to dropped was late, they dropped at 28weeks and by 33weeks their production stopped at 50%. But when I got there and did something changes they changed rapidly to 83%

First of all, 8 bags per day isn't adequate for 1845 laying birds. You should feed them with at least 9 bags per day. Do that and place them on multivitamins for a week and let's know the outcome.

What then is the expected body weight per bird at week 18?

I am currently using same feeding chart starting from week 7, now they are 11 weeks of age and maximum weight is 1.1kg, minimum is 0.7kg, average 0.9kg which make of 70% of total birds.
