The three weeks old birds are receiving less attention now but currently weigh approximately 1 kg.

I no sell again, I have about 10 left and people still think it is expensive @ 900 naira after all my efforts, thank goodness I never raised them with the intention to sell, now I'm going to watch them grow for my personal delight and consumption.

The next bird I'm likely to try out

jidestroud:
Hurray!!! Our birds are in. Following you back to back.

Abeg no feed them chaff ooo fa!!! Pls feed them well well bikonu

You want wreck me?

Abeg I fit get your WhatsApp digits?

The cockerels have been acquired and fully integrated into the brooding room.

Their tiny legs no be here, with what's been said about them, na only pity dey make me still leave dem for my brooder and feeding them with chicken feed instead of chaff.

Nearly burnt my birds trying to keep them warm but thankfully they're all fine.

The broilers have clocked one week and are still 100% intact.

In all we have 102 birds in our brooder.

Stressful but fun-filled still.

ekerensima:
mine should be around July

Harvest is best after four months for it to attain full maturity.

ekerensima:
how long did it take to mature, cus I also have a potato farm

I planted mostly in June and have not really started harvesting.

GeneralKoko:
Okay I'd like some for lease
Hoe much do they charge??

I just asked my village chairman and he said you or your representative will have to be present at the community gathering for deliberations.

Note that my community hosts the ULONNA NORTH FARM SETTLEMENT established by Michael Okpara.

GeneralKoko:
Is land still available in abia state ??
If yes how much can I get a cheap land

I don't know o, but in my community, I'm sure land for cultivation won't be a problem if you want to lease but can't say much about purchase.

Christistruth00:
How long did it take you to plant all this ? Get a Petrol powered bush cutter and expand the farm. Sweet Potato has more potential than how you are taking it and it does well even if planted on flat ground. It is a very resilient and good Economic crop and it will also feed your family well.

There is the video of a Commercial Sweet Potato farmer from Senegal he Cultivates 20 hectares and is doing very well.

.A petrol powered bush Cutter will cost about N32,000 but will help you cultivate more land for the sweet potato fast and sweet potato grows year round in Nigeria. Just use cuttings from your current plants.

It is a very good step you have taken. Sweet potato cultivation is very rewarding and it is one of the healthiest plants to eat both leaves and tubers.

cultivation lasted less than a week, but my lazy ass planted for close to a month.

I had thought of farm machineries but can't afford any for now. Thanks

jidestroud:
Cockerel na native foul na

All the best boss. God's speed on your cockerel addition to your pen. By the way, I still consider N3,500 for those things on the high side.

Don't worry, I just may help you with tips to help with their feeding to cut down cost when the time arises. Cockerel na brain oooo. (Annoying birds )

You na boss, I appreciate!

About the cost, it is well, na learn we still dey.

Thank sir for the offer of help, I will reach out.

jidestroud:
Did you just say cocke.... Tah!!!
Nevertheless, it's all about the targeted market.

lol, no be chicken? I say e cheap make I just gamble... My tummy na good market if I no see sell o

ferhyntorlah:
Awwwwwwwwwwwwww.
That's so sweet of you.
Subsistence farming is the way to go.
You can add tomato and pepper join, lol.

Sure something, I already nursed some.

I get plenty time these days, thanks to this Agric section. Seeing plenty things I can try here dey give me joy

That's a nice area too. Because of you, I even decided to try cockerels. I also ordered a carton from afrimash @3500. Hoping to take delivery on Friday.�

ferhyntorlah:
Well done sir.

I like this variety of sweet potato.

Did you cultivate it for personal consumption?

yes ma, I did. Selling was never part of the plan. I may only sell if they get rotten easily, otherwise I may have to keep it for consumption.

jidestroud:
True, there's no rationale behind the exorbitant prices of doc even with the demand. It's just wickedness to me. C'mon, why should the price of any broiler doc be 450 for the love of God!!!! The prices are determined by two gladiators in the hatchery business & we all know what's playing out. It is well oooo.

To crown it all up, you get adulterated birds in place of your original orders. Local hatcheries ain't smiling at all.

I wish you all best of luck, but as for me and myself, we are gradually librating ourselves from the shackles of this unwarranted increment in prices by using. . .

Biko complete it na... I get, you hatch your eggs yourself. I pray I be like you when I grow.

Akinola100:
God bless you.
It seems there is high demand for potatoes in Nigeria

Thanks and you too, even though I'm not interested in the market.

Our early harvest

Fundango:
My God,this is too exorbitant

Chai! You people want to make me cry, and to think they hardly agree to pay 900 for a 3 weeks old

jidestroud:
Wow!!! That's quite on the high side. What do you mean by vaccination again if I may ask? or didn't you say they were DOC again? Enlighten me

Chineke m eh!

The 'lasota' they give them. I compared the price on afrimash website and thought the difference is negligible.

I thought it was expensive too but Wetin I go do as the price comparison I did around umuahia proved hers was cheaper.

I bought the first @490 they said it was agrited

Mnewton:
boss please recommend a seller and how much is 51 birds ?

I bought from a seller in umuahia @ 26k I.e 520/ chick and that includes the cost for vaccination.

jidestroud:
Great!!!
Hoping to learn a few things from you.

Look at this man o, biko dey go make I dey follow you for back

jidestroud:

Let me rest in here a little. By the way, hope the first sets are doing great?

Yes sir, I have sold most of them @ 2 weeks plus. They are part of the reason I'm motivated to do more.

This is fun so far.

Just took delivery of an additional 51 day old chicks.

Now the watch begins afresh

Isn't it funny how much divided we are along ethnic and religious lines?

Even among the so called learned ones, but we criticize those who are true to themselves for wanting out of a broken enclave with the shout of 'one Nigeria'

God ep us

You are no longer from Awgu abi?

Lol,

Only a handful sisters can keep the code.

I work around girls and their compliments na wash.

They will tell you how beautiful your hair is, ask you the price and tell you it's like you made it yesterday as it is still fresh only to say the hair looks very horrible and say they don't think you have a mirror for daring to wear the hair out once you leave.

You should simply test another charger on it.

drexx:
This right here is the point I am making. in my experience raising broilers, people don't know that all those antibiotics are detrimental to the final consumers health. how many farmers observe the stipulated withdrawal period? I advocate a completely organic production of broilers where natural things are used........its more effective and cheaper

The woman I buy drugs from for my chicks scare me a lot about the cost of running organic whenever I broach the idea to her

sisisioge:
They are mostly unqualified sleeping partners


And it still didn't occur to them to hire special advisers from their huge pockets to help them. More than a year in the house collecting money but nothing to show for it. It is well...

I sent you a mail.

I was a bit tipsy and heard all my senses active, just acted drunk and told my then lover how much I loved her. We had a fallout about then and I just had to act drunk.

Registration is officially ending tomorrow.

If you've yet to register, what is keeping you?
