There is a way u can make the feed. It will even be cheeper than buying.

The thing is dat, u have not invested in knowledge about making it.
boss it's easier said than done when it comes to layer feeds. Remember we're talking about layer feeds (egg laying birds) and not broilers or noilers or kushim (for meat production). I personally produce the feeds for my own broilers but for layers it's different. Any mistake will cause a drop in their egg production. Currently I get nothing less than five crates a day (over 150 eggs); now by mere changing of feeds from say chikun to vital or jargarba or any other company, I notice a drop in the egg production. You can imagine if I am to produce my own feeds without the necessary implements, it's going to be disastrous. It's not easy

That statement about selling of eggs, what are u actually saying there?
olisefom:


Very laudable points you have there. I think our mindset is just tailored towards consumption. Look critically into every sector and you will realise how deep this problem is.

Once an average Nigerian sees 3m, he thinks of either land, car or house...very rare for you to see them think of putting that money in a profitable venture to multiply the money. We need reorientation walahi.

I met an engineer months ago who was lamenting about tools to manufacture some saleable stuffs. When I asked him about the amount for the tools, he was mentioning around 8m or so...but to shock you, this man lives in his house (of over 10 in value)...comfortably seating on what can employ him, his community and his children.

Go check the spending pattern of the poultry farmers and you will discover that most of them lost their business as a result of them spending their money in a course not related to the farms...you buy feed and sell eggs - it's that simple! Or is it that people aren't buying eggs? Here in my community, you see egg to buy by chance. @150 per egg.

Our idea of acquisition is the root cause of this whole mess of debt, unemployment, lack of productivity and the rest.

When do we hold Northern leaders to account? Northern elites are against restructuring and state police, that can provide security to the North.
see how you behave, you talk like a kid. So is it northern leaders that are in the office?
The president is Yoruba
The chief of staff is a Yoruba
The chief of police is a Yoruba man
So what else do you want to fight the insecurities?

Re: Over 50% Of Poultry Farms In Nigeria Shut Down In 2023: PAN by Love800(m): 8:13am On Jan 27
Okay.

What do u actually do with the broilers. U sell dem as meat?

Rearing for meat and rearing for eggs, which is more profitable?
I think in ur own case, u are engaging in both. Abi?

Nigeria has had Ijaw , Fulani, and now Yoruba. Has there been any security in the North and Nigeria as a whole? It is time for state police and regional security

yes I sell the broilers for meat. Rearing for eggs is far far more profitable than meat, it's incomparable. Eggs are on a high demand. Over here, you have book eggs one week before I deliver them to you because of constant demand and orders. I engage in eggs, meat (broilers, noilers, guinea fowl, turkey), fish, livestock. It's a small farm tho but it's moving

for the eggs, they come to me. As it is now, I'm overwhelmed with demands. I don't even go out to advertise anymore, mostly my customers will link me up with their friends who are also into buying eggs. Then those provision shops in the area also do come to buy.
For the meat, I have three suya joint that I supply to every two weeks. I also supply to some hotels
While for the livestocks, mostly I take them to livestock markets once in three months like that
Sometimes the buyers will come and meet me
Base on the occasion

Hello sir, I wonder if I can chat with you on WhatsApp or phonecall. I started a poultry farm last September, at first I had problems with keeping the birds alive but, from my present flock, I can say I've successfully solved that problem. I have some questions from people who've been in the game for quite a while. Between September and now, there's been a drastic increase in the price of feed but I have no intention of stopping the business anytime soon. Please if you can spare me a few minutes of your time, I would be very grateful. Thanks

Imagine if wike had state police, what do you think would have happened?
