Xetima:
Reading your reference and abuses obviously betrays your claim to be a Redeemed (not redeemer). The Redeemed, just like every true Christian does not rain abuses. It does not exist in their DNA. If you are still raining abuses as it shows, it is either you are not who you claimed to be a"Redeemed" or I may be missing something. Please, stop abusive language and then we can start from there.

Now back to the topic, I only replied a post where the reader asked the same question I have also asked, what is the relevance of this topic of 9years old, today?

very relevant!!!

we learn from the past. Whether palatable or not information is relevant.
Whether good or bad a lesson can be learnt.

Some kid in some place just turned 9years and might be making their first attempt at using the Internet.

@femu,
Re-read the topic. I will adopt his name but it's not going to replace my surname.

whatever case understand the potential social, cultural and legal implications. things can happen......

Chiamaka01:
It's
getting less uncommon to see women, especially those occupying high
positions in society hyphenating their surnames and their husbands'
surname. I think it's a good thing, at least, it will erase the notion
that the daughter you've invested much in will bear another man's name. Ladies, would you do it? Guys, would you marry a lady that has this notion?

Not adopting your husband's name might have potential legal implications incase of will, estate administration or divorce.
when all your documents show no obvious relationship with your husband you will have a lot of proving to do.

Also if your husband is a famous or well to do man am sure you will eagerly embrace the name change.

Descartes:
Am sure you know the difference between Democracy and Military ?

A democratic government has even more appeal than a military government.

my point is that despite international sanctions against Abacha he got military support from Libya and north Korea.

The argument that we are unable to procure arms because of American influence is weak.

If we can consult the Chinese for numerous activities why haven't we ordered weapons from them.
Russia is also there as well as numerous countries that will do anything to spite America.

If a militia, rebel group and non-state actors can acquire weapons, why is it difficult for a standard nation?

Besides what kind of GAME CHANGING weapons do you buy with 5million or 9 million dollars?

Also is the government implying that they don't have suppliers for the 1billion dollar loan for military hardware?

2cato:
They will not sell weapon to us but they will sell to BH typical mentality of thieves and evil people.

Why not buy from Russia and China if Americans are "evil"?

Even abacha with the whole world against him was able to get military support from North korea and Libya.

Ijobaorun: does it not affect your piglets, as in causing loose stool?
Pls what and what drugs can I use to stop loose stool on my weaners? Tnx

Loose stool can be caused by many factors including:
Excess protein
Excess sugar
Over feeding
Sudden change in diet formulation
Infection

Belexy: Hello house, plz can i rear grower pigs (about eight) in a pen made wt bamboo?

sure have seen some backyard piggery like that.... even with bigger sized animals

jimmysho: House I need answers to this questions;

1. what is prevailing prices of weaners and growers that one can use to populate ones farm?
2. Which breed is the best for fattening and breeding for slaughter?
3 is it advisable to have a small feed mill when you are starting the farm with 100 Growers/weaners for fattening to be sold live or butcher and 20 sow and 3 boar for breeding to populate the farm further? If yes, what is the average rate of such milling machine set.
4. Which is more profitable; Live or butchered meat?
5. Can anybody recommend a good farm manager on piggery.
6. to achieve good yield, do one feed the animals same ration on their different life cycle like it is applicable in birds where you feed chick mash, grower mash and layer mash as the case may be?
7. is it economical to use soya meal, cake, GNC, maize to formulate the pigs feeds?
8 can one achieve 100kg live weight in 8 months for fatten animals?
9 which breed give more meat than fat?
10. is cassava peals healthy for the animals considering cyanide content? if yes how do one process and preserve for say 3 months after it has been peeled from the tubers?
11. can one cook the cassava peels and will this eliminate the poison?
12. What is the recommended price of a quality and economical feeds?
13. What kills the cyanide, the heat or fermentation.

Weaners prices typically range from 3000-5000 naira. Growers are priced from 4000 upwards depending on several factors............

Forget about setting up a farm feedmill unless your farm is very large and you have access to cheap maize, pkc and soya.

soya meal, cake, GNC, maize are good for pigs....but it might not be economically sustainable. cheaper alternatives like bloodmeal, milk and chicken intestine exist.

There are different feed formulations for Weaner, grower and fattener pigs. Some of that info has been shared on this thread

The cassava cyanide is killed by heat or fermentation. you can keep the peels in bags and feed after 3days.

FarmTech: ..
I didn't know demand for pork meat is low in nigeria. This is different from what I've heard people saying.

d farmers are yet to meet local and external demand, also compared to our population and consumption of beef, chicken and fish we can say it is low.
In a few years we hope to have farms with thousands of pigs that will be mostly internally consumed.
some of us are thinking and planning in that direction.... watchout.
we want pork to be on everyones menu!!!

there is nothing to cure. she needs to undergo psychotherapy with a qualified psychiatrist. antidepressants wont offer a complete solution. If she is willing to undergo treatment you can call me.

ops: @Dejia. Nicely said but don't you think an association formed here will be a little difficult to run? Posters here are from different states and I would think the major problem will be arranging meetings.
I think most of the issues you raised can be handled by existing associations. I know there is one exclusively for pig farmers & at least two others for farmers generally but also include livestock. All have ,more or less, nationwide presence and despite what you might think, they are quite active when the interests of their members are threatened.

My friend the existing associations are dormant, we need something better for the following and more reasons.

Currently we have little or no access to vaccines
Little or no access to pig specific equipment. I had to design my own farrowing crates, Feeders and Drinkers.
Little or no access to a variety of exotic breeds
little internal consumption of pork in the country. What will happen if our border with Benin is closed.
Exclusion from many FG livestock agric concessions.

There is need for a national reorientation towards pork consumption. If Pork consumption is increased in Nigeria it will create millions of new millionaire families in the south the way Poultry and Fish farming are currently doing.

Most of the cattle we consume come from Niger republic which is a loss to our economy.

eazeefix: Hello everyone, I heard in the radio yesterday that people should be 'careful with their consumption of pork' there was no distinction between wild pigs and farmed pigs already 2 of my butcher customers complained to me that sales has slowed as a result. How do we tackle this becos right now no government official has come out to counter this claim. No ebola infection has been traced to pork consumption but the way our fear ridden people are we need to respond quickly to protect our investments before it goes viral like the ridiculous salt water bath message.

got a similar feedback from a friend but it was from small buyer customers. The reality is for us to form a proactive association capable of influencing things...

eazeefix: My obj gilts haven't farrowed yet intact 2 came back on heat so they are being re-bred now. I actually got 2 breeds from them the landrace and large white. I can't weigh them now but I'm quite pleased with their growth though they had an initial drop but I guess they are well adjusted now.
If you ask me anyone buying from them should be careful.

you are right, have equally had some funny experiences with their animals.

eazeefix: http://olumo./ I think we can learn a thing or from these guys in Ghana. Our independent attitude as farmers is what makes us suffer in the hands of brokers and middlemen/women. They dictate prices they buy pigs and we are usually helpless becos we need the cash. For instance when I was starting out last June I bought my weaners @ 4000 naira each and when I approached the same guy with my own weaners which in my opinion are bigger than the ones I got from him he said he would buy for 3000 naira and I told him I do not have such weaners for sale that mine are N4500 each fortunately I am not too desperate I have unoccupied rooms and cash. Once they reach grower stage no more sales be that. We should learn how to schedule our outputs so as not to sell in desperation. We need like minded people to come together with a purposeful vision to take pig farming to great heights in our dear country.

Hi oga, can you give a sincere appraisal in terms of litter size and weight at 8 and 16 weeks of the offsprings of the Obasanjo sows you bought?
What is the average weight of the sows now?
