Yes. Several ways actually. Via nutrition you can add certain feed grade additives that'll both strengthen their gut health so their droppings are less wet. You can also reduce smell by proper litter management which maybe difficult if your pen is not well designed!

orenteasa:
is there any thing I can do to reduce the smell from my birds faeces.

Wrong and inadequate Feeder for that age. Can't see any drinker. Your litter is caked. You're probably under-feeding them too!

chinwejosy:
Am just confuse. Just started. But feeling that my broiler are not getting bigger and this is its 3weeks. Can some one help me with a wonderful boaster

True very unlikely under 12 weeks! I got my last set 13th of September 2016 which is about 14 weeks to Xmas. I got above 6kg! I weigh my birds all the time!

EMMAACHILE:

Under 12 weeks? it's impossible without greenhouse or controlled room condition.

50 broilers will eat above 4kg in 7 weeks if well fed.
That's translates to 8 bags!

jfkenny:

Could this mean 6 or 7 bags for 50 birds at 7weeks

Nice. I doubt you'll be able to sell that kinda broiler for 5k though. I sell mostly to direct consumers! We process and do home delivery too!

allimojeed:

Is that the price you sell to direct customers or the price you sell to marketers that sells by the road. Have decided to feed my 250 broilers 8kg per bird.

We source from reputable hatcheries across Nigeria!

Arry110:
which companies produced this birds?

12-14 weeks!

jeckin205:

how many weeks old are these your matured broiler

1.2 ton of feed = 48 bags!

Arry110:
Am thinking of restocking 300 broilers I have a large pen but want to know the amount of feed they would consume to 7 weeks.

Depends on his target market. Works for me!

kioboy:


90 bags of feeds for 200 birds? @3900 per bag is approximately 1800 per bird only on feeding alone, when you add the cost of doc, drugs, vaccine and others, it will climb to 2500 or more.

Is not advisable to keep broilers beyond 8weeks, any extra is lost on the investment.

Sure I get above 6kg!

EMMAACHILE:



5k for how much kg of broiler? Except the broiler is above 6kg live weight

You're smart! That about what I spend and I sell 5k!

Budget at least 90 bags! 12 bags of starter + 78 bags of finisher!

jeckin205:
How many bag of feed will 200 day old broiler consume for 12weeks

Pls answer the above questions so help can be recommended. Meanwhile did they suffer from disease infection as anytime?

Megaaust:
Follow farmers please help me @ 8weeks my broilers does'nt have enough weight,apart from feed,what else do i feed them to get weight? I need to dispose and restock.

What's not true? That your broilers are underfed doesn't mean it's the right thing! How can you feed a broiler with 7kg for 10-11 weeks when the owners of most breed says at least 10kg in 10 weeks of age? Pls guide people correctly based on recommended standards!

EMMAACHILE:

Using the your formula for 50 broilers
50 * 10/25 = 20 bags!
This is not true
On the average I will use a max of 14 bags to feed 50 broilers to maturity
Meaning 50*7/25 =14 bags for 10-11 weeks

Premaaaaaah
Pls call 07039280130 to book.

abdulraheem95:
How much?

Not exactly true sir!

EMMAACHILE:

Average of 6-7kg max

allimojeed:
Hello house, please how many kg would i feed broiler chickens for 12 weeks. Have been told 7-9kg thereabout. Thank you.

Depends on how you feed them. U can budget 10kg/bird if it's not ad libtum feeding...

Depends on the brand and your location. Animal care finisher is 3,700 here.

FashPet:
How much is starter/finisher broiler feeds

It's dependent on the hatchery and your environment too! One size doesn't fit all! [


quote author=elobestdydx post=60036059] please educate me more on ur medication and vaccine.[/quote]

You can get a loan to grow not to start from scratch!

tunnex10:
pls will need ur advise about to get a loan to start poultry business. will like to get anybody contact dat can help.

You probably didn't notice on time. You didn't give enough details too. Condition of droppings? A picture of their environment maybe. Most likely a viral infection. A very good broad spectrum antibiotic like Doxy-gen 20/20 would have helped stop the mortality. Sorry about the loss!

victor44843:
I bought 10 two months old broilers last week. On the first and second day, they were very active untill some days ago when i noticed that a broiler is not as active as others.
Then i seperated it and gave it some drugs as prescribed by a vet, but it died the next day.
Since that day, 5 broilers have died within FOUR days.
One died this morning and i also noticed that 3 broilers are already showing the same symptoms this morning.

If they die, there will be two broilers left within five days

Nice. Kindly share how you prepared it, dosage and administration!

tasho105:
Day 39

Blended bitter leaf in water today.

You can keep up to 150 then. You'll have to be conscious of ventilation though as broilers need a lot of fresh air!

jeeray:

Intend to keep them for 8wks sir

We can deliver healthy and quality day old broilers to you from reputable hatcheries nationwide. Delivery is no problem as we also do nationwide delivery twice every week!

adexgii:
Please I need someone that can sell me a day old broiler, and how much can I spend on 50birds

Depends on the age and type of the bird and for how long do you intend to raise them? If they're broilers you want to keep above 12 weeks and for your space of 234sqft I would recommend nothing more than 100 birfs depending on the pen design also! You can reach us via our page for more information and consultation!

jeeray:
Experts in the house please kindly advise on how many birds at maximum can a pen of 26ft by 9ft contain. Thanks in anticipation

Interesting. What's their current weight like?

tasho105:
Day 38
3rd day of blended Neem leaves in water.
Opened 12th bag this evening.

We can guide you all the way...

Mickey02:

First I want to know the nutritional requirements for broilers and their allergies. The precautions to be undertaken and what have you

Not too good ROI. We do more!

The Coordinator of natnudO Foods’ broiler out-grower scheme tagged “natnuPreneur”, Mr. Gbolade Adewole, has disclosed that farmers registered under the six- seven week broiler production scheme, have consistently enjoyed between 7.5% and 15% profit on investment per cycle. With a potential to conclude 5 cycles per year, efficient farmers stand to make between 37.5% – 75% profit per annum, making natnuPreneur “broiler out-grower” the most profitable poultry scheme in the country.


Adewole made the revelation while addressing journalists at a press briefing on Tuesday, August 15, 2017 in Lagos.

He also disclosed that between October 2014 and July 2017, poultry farmers registered under the three year ‘pilot phase’ have reared over 4 million birds and the firm has off-taken birds to the value of over 4 billion naira.

Mr. Adewole stated that the natnuPreneur initiative is not only in the business of providing a ready market for broiler farmers, but also in ensuring that they are consistently in business and that they make profits that can be sustained consistently over time.

“We treat our farmers’ farms as our own and invest a lot of time in ensuring their poultry businesses are run with global best practices as we run and manage ours, because we believe that our success is closely tied to the success of our farmers”.

“Our vision is to create passionate, knowledgeable, and wealthy poultry farmers nationwide through sustained profitability”

“It is not enough to help farmers achieve profitability after just one cycle. We have heard of many out-grower schemes in the past where farmers make millions but couldn’t retain it afterwards. What we are most concerned about is that the profit our farmers make increases and is sustained. In other words, we make and retain broiler millionaires through frequent training on poultry management processes and continuous monitoring/supervision of farm activities”

He further emphasized, “We help our farmers understand the dynamics of poultry business through effective and regular training, monitoring and mentorship. We also help them increase efficiency of production by taking them through good management practices on how to manage their resources, using our Net profit calculator to understand the details of the economics of broiler production, and how to reduce mortality of birds”.

He further said that in their three years of operation, they have been able to increase the capacity of their farmers in terms of number of birds stocked, thereby making them grow profitably.

“natnuPreneur has a standard operating manual used in monitoring optimal farm management, such that, lapses in standard processes are quickly noticed and brought to the attention of the farmer. Aside from this, we pay weekly visits to farms to monitor their progress and offer business and technical advice when needed. These activities have helped to achieve the success level recorded by our farmers so far.

According to him, “these processes are what distinguish natnuPreneur from other broiler out-grower schemes the country has witnessed in the past”.

In terms of societal impact, Adewole pointed out that natnuPreneur has created thousands of direct and indirect employment across the country.

“natnuPreneur has directly employed 150 graduates, working as extension officers (Farmer Satisfaction Representatives, in the Feed mill, hatchery and abattoir) and there are plans to recruit 60 more to manage the increase in capacity. Presently, the initiative indirectly influences the employment of over 5,000 people, who work at various levels with farmers and farmer cooperatives”.

“There is a potential to have additional 1 Million people, directly working with natnuPreneur in different capacities, within the entire value chain (Feed Mill, Hatchery, Logistics and transportation, Chicken processing, Chicken distribution/sub distribution and our Retailers, called natnuPreneur Seller” He said.

He further revealed that the scheme, which has engaged several small and medium scale broiler poultry farmers, is intended to help boost supply of high quality locally bred chicken for consumption across the country, making quality chicken available as well as affordable to all Nigerians.

Adewole revealed that the credibility of the scheme, has over the years, earned them partnership with many commercial banks like Sterling bank, Heritage bank and Jaiz bank, as well as many microfinance banks in the country, while adding that the scheme has also attracted the Anchor Borrower programme of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) where we have partnered with Bank of Agriculture (BOA), Nigeria Incentive Based Risk Sharing System for Agricultural Lending (NIRSAL) and Bank of Industry (BOI).

“We have collaborated with these institutions and shared resources in the process. The learning, data gathered and analyzed over this period has been used constantly to optimize our processes and improve our systems. This is then feedback into our systems and in house application developed specifically to monitor our performance”.

He then concluded that the NatnuPreneur scheme is set to reposition poultry out-grower service in Nigeria by supporting the establishment of new broiler farms and expanding existing ones in the nooks and crannies of the country.

While also addressing newsmen, Dcn. Toromade Francis, General Manager, Policy and Strategy, Amo Group and Mr. Oloruntoba Emmanuel, General Manager, Amo Byng, a member company of Amo Group called on governments at all levels to be more proactive in curbing the menace of smuggling chicken products into the country and also support the local production of maize and soya, adding that if this is done, the initiative will be able to create more employment opportunities, absorb over 10 million people and add significantly to the overall GDP of the nation.

Sharing their experiences, two long term natnuPreneur farmers, Dr. Robinson of Kadapo farms in Kwara State and Mrs. Tomori of Honey Dew farms, Oyo State, made highly complementary comments and confirmed the claim made by the AMO FARM’s team.
