AgricultureRe: How Much Would It Cost To Build A Pen For 200 Birds? by NNC5: 7:06pm On Sep 22, 2020
it should cost around 200k to 250k depending on the accessories.
it cost me around 430k to build a structure that houses my 1000 point of cage birds here:

bulk of xpense is in the roofing and the concrete flooring (if you have one)
since u live in Ibadan, labour will be relatively cheap, so you can simply do the calculation.
like this:
you will need about 3-4 couches of blocks
70 -100 blocks / row of couch
3-5 bgs of cmt per couch
1 trip of sand
5-10 bags of cmt for flooring
some granite
6 wooden beams
lots of wood for roofing
4-6 roofing sheets
2x2 wood for nettings
nets and nylons
nails, and sh$t... stuff can really pile up
etc...etc
AgricultureRe: Poultry Tips For A NOVICE. by NNC5: 1:20am On Sep 22, 2020
Ayotemide:
Fellow Agric-Nairalanders,

My mother has set up an haphazard poultry based on 'increasing streams of income's, she was consulting with an Agric vendor (In retrospect, he seems like a novice himself)...
it might make sense to tell us the type of birds for better solutions/suggestions.
in my experience, twisted neck is caused by lack of vit E and in most cases, its better to isolate the infected and treat.

i found out that aloe vera was very efficient in treating it esp. in turkeys.
survival rates are small to moderate but i will recommend she changes the feeds being given.

she should also factor in losses as a novice, thats just the nature of the biz.
ppl need to thread lightly when delving into poultry business because its a little more complicated than advertised.
for me, this was how i started:

Clearly this guy was whacked.

most Nigerians are ignorant about racism.
young or old,
rich or poor,
educated or not
all oyibos are racists....all of them.

it's always better not to be trapped in their mist alone.
even the girls that tend to pay attention to black males... are racists as well.
they are simply looking for a superior gene (biological instincts).
