Trust me, the calculation I made above was for the novice who don't know how to cut down the cost. Like I said before, by the time DOC will reach #150 or above as stated above, you won't have any reason to raise the birds for the processors but for the Xmas and new year. And this is the time you make more than 100 percent profit.

So chances are high that you will buy your DOC for less than #150 I mentioned in my previous post.

Besides, I added #50/bird as a miscellaneous. Your mortality too should be very minimal if your management is ok.

See my brother, there's no business in the world that's devoid of risk. I've done a business of over a million naira and lost everything within a space of six month. Besides, 14% profit within 6 weeks is not absolutely bad if you ask me. Many businesses offers less than that, it's because we don't do it in large quantity that we thought the profits were small.

what happened if the birds weigh like 1.7 to 1.8kg averagely or the birds eat like 4.1 to 4.2 on the average where the price of feed is 2600/25kg. You are a joker. 400 is OK.

FarmTech:

..
Broiler farmers in the house, is this realistic?

Ridiculous! when cost of doc is average of 150, feeding for six week averagely 500, cost of vaccine and drugs and miscellaneous 50. Average weight at 6 wks 1.8kg. Now production cost is 700 (150+500+50), He wan buy at 666 (1.8 X 370). No be loss be that! It must be a joke. Abeg I no do.

doctormalik:
I have capacity of culling up to 10,000 broilers per month, do not worry about the market, where is your farm located?

fnk:


As I read your post, as much as I agree with you, one of your statments that jumped out at me is "Ur experiment will work..." If it will work, I will not get bored down with the "But..." Also, reading further you asked if I can imagine feeding my birds for 6 to 8 weeks to get them up to 2 kg live, my brother that is the numbers of weeks it takes me now to get to 2 kg live with zatech birds, and OBJ birds that I have bought in the past. So, if I can produce my own at that same rate, it is already an achivement, I can now continue to experiment and go from there. But remember, I will be saving on transportation and a whole lot of other incidental.
New let us see what I am already doing though, my 200 layers are 10 weeks old now, none of them died as a result of sickness just heat and stress from moving them when they were little, so, we only lost 8 birds we have a balance of 192 left. We only gave them lasota and gomboro within their first 10 days. That is it, no antibiotics, nothing else, just a mixture of... yes you know. So, withiout chemicalizing my layers, who knows their system could turn out to become like the so called breeder birds. So, introducing Cockrel that was equally raised the same way as the layer, who know, we might have invented something here.
So, guys I am not disputing what is being advised here, I am just thinking outside the box, and if it works, boy! I will be saving myself a boat load of money and that will just become another income center, and fnk breeders stock will be coming to a farm near you. Lol!

So for the experiment poppose, does anyone know the best time to introduce the Cockrel, and at what ratio? Please help. My cockrels will be 12 weeks by Thursday this week and the layers will be 11 weeks.

well science is all about trial. Let your cockerel be 24 weeks and hen about 20 weeks old before mating. You can mate at ratio 1 to 10. Although I know the result. However, let's see maybe urs will be different. I am following.

tranxo:
what are your skills? Can you handle technical rewriting?

@tranxo, I should be able to. if you have any.

can you talk more on spacing and watering. What is adequate.

15 days gone and yet to win a bid. Na wa o.

Lesgupnigeria:

Ok.
Paraquat is only active and kill weeds within 12 hours after application and therefore within 1 week new weeds have started growing and regenerating.
The only solution is to use slow acting herbicides like the gramozone or glyphosate but Note that these herbicides can take 2weeks before weeds die off and make sure it does not get in.contact with the plantain.

glyphosphates can stay in soil for some period. won't it affect the plantain if rain wash the chemical to plantain base. please expanciate. thanks.

Well done for the good work. please which herbicide can be used to combat weeds in plantain farm that will last longer. And how often can it be applied because Iweed has been a major problem for me and cost of manual labour is high. I have tried paraquat but the plantation get bushy 2 weeks or less after application. Thanks.

please, a freelancer has been sending messages to me asking me to write some articles without official message from freelancer. Could that be a scam. or how do I go about it..

ladywriter:


Hi Matthew, Hmmm! Welcome to the word of freelancing online. I must first of all salute your courage. You read the thread and took actions. A lot of people read this thread and never did anything. So, Well done Sir. About your complaint, it is a learning curve dear. I learnt the same lesson why i was starting out, infact mine was even bigger than yours - a lot of money, almost $1,400 if I am correct. Articles written that were never paid for, e-books, how many did i want to count. But, all of these did not discourage me, I was sad and angry. But, I made up my mind to be stronger and weather all storms. Today, I am better off.

Solution:
Make sure YOUR EMPLOYER SET MILESTONES. With milestone set, you can report the issue to freelancer.com. Without milestone, there is nothing you can do about it. Oh, you can pray!

Choose the employer you work for. Check their reviews and all that. Although, sometimes some of them do misbehave like you said.

Encourage yourself and get going! The future is bright!
I have been looking for you. Please get in touch with me.

Dear Ladywriter. pls I usually see milestone. pls what do I need to write there. what do u mean by employer setting milestone. Just joined freelancer today.

ladywriter. please I had problem of bidding. Pls what do I put in the area of milestone in the the rate of percentage or hours. Secondly, pls can you give me example of how to write a proposal to win a bid. Thanks.

sadcheese:
I make just over $4000/month working for myself in Nigeria. All I can say for now is it's possible to earn $1000/month online(it's actually easy if you're willing to put in the work and not expect something for nothing) and having believes like "it's hard to reach $1000/month" would really limit you from reaching $100,000 a year.

It's all perspective my friends.

what business are u into. $4000 a month just spark my head.

Ayoolanairaland:
Solar aerator with 2 air stone for sale

what is the price.

eaglevirus:
We had to queue for 2hours repeatedly to buy 2bags of feed for a farm that needed 12bags a day at the minimum. and the price of feed went up by 1000naira. It was so bad that our fat birds could now wiggle out of their cages because of weight loss. Some folks could not afford to buy feed at the current rate and had to sell of their layers for meet as they where not even laying again to assist in feeding.
In all I felt happy being associated in the whole mess as I made new farmer friends at the queue for feed. I have a good job already, I bring the cash my brother runs the farm and I assists when I am around.
We are now making arrangement to start feed distribution so we can have a say in the matter when the axe drops hard again like it did last year. This is our first time in poultry biz, we are hope full cos we wanna make a difference.
I got my resolve to start the farm after reading this thread over and over again, thanks guys.

my brother. in situation like this u need to network. there are some states where feed were not scarce like Oyo state especially in Ibadan. u just have to make contact and get your feed transported maximum of 24 hrs. then save itself of loss. pls join WWW. agricnetwork.com. at leat u get the experience now. keep moving.
