Location, why selling and any fix to be made.

Thanks dear, when is the right time to stock. I currently have 50 black boom layers that started laying at 19 weeks 2 days not up to 3 weeks now I picked 45 eggs yesterday. I am considering buying tetra long life from Niger birds or I should stick with boom.

isah4abu:
egg is a seasonal product is there are times when there will be plenty of eggs in the market especially during heat periods between March to may,d prices of egg will be low due to low demand and u may practically beg to sell your eggs, if ur farm is big,its very common if you are in d north don't know about south,also during cold season,ur birds lay more and you tend to have very high demand like that's what u r experiencing now that made d price as high as u just quoted,its not always d case and u as a farmer may not be able to sell for that price,thats d shop price,from august to February,currently we sell in d farm for 900 and when schools r on holidays u may have a little lull in sales too, with all due respect,70 birds in layers is quite small as that's less than two crates daily, d least u should aim for is 100 birds for a start so they can eat half bag otherwise broilers will suit u more except u r doing it for friends and family consumption and learning d ropes cos u may not get value compared to d stress, also ur cost of vaccinations ll be high alongside so many factors,layers is a very long term biz so be prepared from d begining to go all d way and I'm sure u have a vet that ll guide u through d process cos online forums may help but may not always be very practical when u r in d biz cos too many cooks spoil d broth

Half bag is 1550 , two crates 1800, though u will likely get more than 2 crates. Mehn the gain is poor..well am equally learning

Isa thanks for this insight..

So red pepper and bitterleaf takes care of cocci

shakyriri:
Use bitterleaf and ata rodo

What's at a rodo

Is it true agitted has two strains or they have two sets..

noeloge82:
That means your already on 60% production which multivitamin are u giving them

Superliv,from animal care

noeloge82:
Very much in other
How are they doing now

Got 35 yesterday , 34 today

Ginger and garlic, pound and sieve, then serve in water

K, but the way people speak about black pullets I never knew they will be producing up to 30 eggs within 1week inlay

No greenish colour..production is progressive , I ve picked 31 today..but why do people say black don't lay well. If the trend continues , then I will conclude that they are doing well..

I learnt there is even a way by which one can use foreign male to cross local female through artificial insemination and achieve a better weight.

I planned doing that with my four foreign turkey and three local turkeys , though naturally local male can mount foreign female

Dimejimichael:
Sorry Turkey rather

There is foreign turkey..grows very big and weigh more than local turkey.

My birds are 22 weeks, started laying at 19plus two days . just 50 black pullets though, I picked 28eggs yesterday. I only gave lasota, no other vaccine. I placed them on superliv two days ago because I noticed their feed and water intake reduced , they ain't as agile as they used to...

Exactly. Someone said weighwise the difference between foreong and local turkey is insignificant..

But he stated that the phone is locked..

May be his area is hot..

Thanks for the tips..

Please Emmachile what's the weight of extima 300, 1gram or 2 grams..

Nawaoo

Are these broilers or cockrel

The leaves are different from another set that I planted and that one produced normal ginger..I believe that allowing the ginger to sprout before planting is the difference not actually the soil.

How much is the monensin +vit e..
