So I decided to start my animal husbandry adventures. And would be updating the thread on what I faced..
So I decided to start with four. 2 weeks chicks. already slaughtered them for my mom's celebration grin while they were alive I didn't do anything like gomboro or lasota. It was pure organic. Pics and updates coming below.

Last two week's I found 7 eggs close to my local hens, my mom asked me to take them to the kitchen 😂.. after breaking one I found an almost formed chick... So I returned the remaining 6. after 4 days, they hatched.. but because of cat wey no won gree me rest. I took the chicks from their mom and promised myself to brood them like Broiler's despite the mockry of my neighbors.. so I embarked on the adventure.. one chick died while trying to escape. So I was left with 5. Then I purchased a day old noiler to make them 6.. I was told to take them out of the cage so they won't infect the incoming Broiler's but I refused (speaking of an animal activist) grin. So I booked the Broiler's who arrive together with my fertilized eggs on Tuesday

. You could construct the one of both light and kerosene.. but you need a thermometer and a thermostat
Re: My commercial Backyard poultry Farming Experience...! by Destinygsd: 6:31am On Oct 25, 2023
I postponed my incubator building because of the unavailability of fertilized eggs.. I was told that the hens hasn't layed... But I could teach you how to make one you could also make use of some YouTube videos but get a thermostat and a thermometer first. Those are the most important thing in building an incubator.. you'd also dedicate your time to turn the eggs three times daily
