Money is like fruit trees, you share the fruit, not the tree. Instead of sharing half of ur money, why not invest it and share the profits? The investment can help charities for years to come.

Hello Nairalanders. I hav great interest in goat farming but I'll like to know if there is one in nigeria, especially in the south or east region. Another question: can all those northern goat breeds resist tse tse fly in the south? Thanks as i anticipate ur replies.
FamilyRe: Things Men Find Irresistible In A Woman by FarmTech(m): 11:25pm On Nov 01, 2013
Telling women to highlight their best physical asset is another way of telling them to dress immodestly. So if the physical asset is the buttocks, they shud wear tight fitting skirts and trousers so as to highlight it. So are so tight that u can even see the outline of the pants. Is that the advice u hav for the ladies? Any one who follow such evil advice will end up attracting dogs. No decent man can see u and marry u. Ladies, dress modestly. A modest cloth is a cloth that is not tight fitting and a cloth that covers ur unclothedness. Modesty will attract modest men. But beware, some dogs will still come.

Sorry for the delay. My mtn subscription has expired. Once I get another subcription I'll give u more updates with pictures.



The chicks have arrived, 550 of them. As usual you start with starter feed. When I saw the feed I ordered for, i was confuse because wot was written on the bag was broiler starter feed. On enquiry i found out that both layers and broilers feed on the same starter.



The brand of feed we bought was vital feed. My mentor told me it is better than other ones.



Pls stay tune, more updates are comming. And hey, I need your advice and suggestions. Also share your own experience.

femu: i like the wire mesh concept, pls shed more light on the effectiveness
The wire mesh will prevent the chicks from coming in contact with their droppings. This will reduce the risk of infection.

Another thing to note is that I won't use the mesh floor immediately because I'm afraid their feet is not large enough. I'll have to wait for about a week or so. I've not seen anybody doing this before, I just saw the concept in one ebook.

WebmastersRe: Drop Your Facebook Fan Page And Get More Likes by FarmTech(m): 12:20am On Sep 08, 2013
https://www./Bloggerjointventures/
The objective of this group is to encourage bloggers to promote each other’s content. It may involve any of the following:

1. Blog Comment Promo: Here, two members will agree to place comments on each other’s blog.

2. Social Share Promo: Do you have a fan page or a FB account? Invite members to share your post on their timeline or fan page and you’ll reciprocate. State clearly, the number of fans or friends you have and use that to negotiate with interested members.

3. Forum Promo: In forums, people don’t like replying to topics with very few posts. Interested members here can supply you with enough posts to keep the topic alive


HERE IS HOW IT WORKS:
1. Tell members what you want by posting a topic.
2. Members will reply and tell you what they want in exchange for doing what you want.
3. Reply and tell members whether you agree with their proposal or not.
4. Negotiation can go on until you come to an agreement.

Alternatively, you can invite only members that want the same thing as you. For example, if you want comments, invite only members that want comments on their blogs. This will prevent long negotiation.

IMPORTANT: Quality matters a lot! Any member can reject your post (comment or forum post) if it has low quality.

OTHER BENEFITS YOU CAN GET
1. Advice: If you need advice on anything, ask members.
2. Service: Let us know if you offer any service like article writing, webdesign etc. You can also hire members.

WHAT TO AVOID
1. Don’t Copy & Paste: Nigerian bloggers are known for plagiarism. We frown on it here. You’ll be ban if you publish other members’ content. Your site must not contain plagiarized content because we want only honest members.
2. Don’t Spam: Don’t spam. This can mean a lot of things. So just use your brain and obey warnings if you receive them.

3. Don’t Scam: Scammers are not wanted here. Your site must be legitimate.
4. More updates later.

8. Wire Mesh Floor for the Chicks

My aim here is to prevent the chicks from coming in contact with their droppings. The method I adopt here can only minimize contact by up to 90%.

The reason why I’m doing this is to minimize infection by Coccidiosis. I believe this can reduce mortality to zero (Ceteris Paribus). Now here is how I go about the construction:

Dimension: 3x6ft.
Wire Mesh: N4,000.
Wood: Already available.

In all, there were miscellaneous expenses like the cost of nails, transport, loading and offloading etc.

In the future, I'll be adding grasscutter and goat. I hope this helps somebody.

7. Dwarf Wall Completed

AgricultureMy Poultry Farm by FarmTech(mod):
In this post, I’ll share with you what it took me to build my poultry farm. I'm doing this bc it will help many people who are interested in poultry farming. But first, you may want to know why a mechanical engineering graduate decided to go into farming in the first place. Well, farming was my childhood passion and it still remains a passion till today. I also have passion for mechanical engineering but as of now, farming will make me more money than my field of study and it has a cheaper start-up cost.

Also, I wasn’t that interested in getting a job in the first place. Rather than spend 6 months or more looking for job, it is better to start something if you have the capital. So that’s how I came into poultry farming.

I just hope that this will inspire Nairalanders like me that have interest in farming.
