Morning
U have to kill and sell at agreed price per kilo or u can simply enter the market close to u and get the market women that sells birds to buy

They buy and pay cash with that u can continue the feeding as a matter of fact that the benefit of raising broiler birds it can be sold at anything after 6 wks once well feed

jfkenny:
Morning sir, thanks for ur concern.. Sell live chicken to them u mean..

U don't need cold room to sell ur broilers all u need do is agree with frozen chicken sellers how much per kilo they will buy then u kill the bird and supply them meanwhile the gizzard is sold seperately

EMMAACHILE:
Cost of keeping in a cold room is another cost. Broiler business is not good if you don't have a ready made market.

Pls where do u buy full frozen chicken 1200 or are u assuming based on old prices

kayo80:
He will be at a loss if he does that. Full frozen chicken cost about N1,200. If he sells his broilers at that rate, that would be a huge loss.

Big companies sell to frozen chicken buyers and they have high production over head so pls don't assume u have ur cost analysis go out and interact with them
Currently a kilo of frozen chicken is sold between 850 and 1000 depending on ur location

jfkenny:
If I sells at 1100 now it is at production cost, well, I intend to sell at Xmas though I will be selling as orders come.. Will be selling at 900 today Shaa. I need to reduce their number..

Keprocyrl is antibiotis not mainly for CRD if u drink paracetamol at an early stage of malaria and it relax alittle dosent mean that paracetamol stops maleria cos when it comes back hospital bed will always be there

EMMAACHILE:
All the poultry farms I know here use it to even prevent crd!

jfkenny:
Please somebody should give me solution.. My 98 birds of 52days broilers finishes a bag of finishers in 3days.. Is that how it should be. The annoying part is that they finish the feed even before I serve them water,,,.. Is it because of the black patches they have, secondly are broilers aggressive to farmers, they always peck badly on my legs that I am forced to put on trousers before I enter their house. The feeding stuff is not funny at all..

U have a big solution to being a broiler farmer now
Why not locate a cold room and this could u big break to making it in the broiler frozen chicken biz

jerome84:
Thanks bros.

Pls don't use Keproceyrl for CRD use any of the drugs I have suggested to avoid stories that touch

EMMAACHILE:
Keproceyrl

Keproceyrl is not a good CRD drug

jerome84:
Oga noel so wat drugs can one administer to the birds incase of the CRD infection.?

U can use Anitalan, tylodox extra, tylo 20 or center Cipro

Just like u ve been adviced increase the quantity of ur finisher feed and supported by 2 times a wk multivitamin and the result will suprise U

quote author=EmmaAjayi post=50674115]I have few broilers being reared for December. How can l boost their growth as Xmas is fast approaching?[/quote]

jfkenny:
I do clean every two weeks..
The floor was not that dry before starting brooding though I used charcoal to dry it...

Not that dry meas their is humidity in the brooder that where the problem is my advice is regularly can the wood shaving atleat every wk or every 2wks using dry ones to mop up moisture that may form

How wet is the floor of ur farm house how do u clean the place

jfkenny:
My farm house, what could be wrong.. My birds have never been free from watery brown poops.. Could the house b d reason...

Coughing, frequent sneezing when u visit ur pen at night u will think someone is snooring but its the birds that are having breathing issues
And it is highly infectous it has many other symptoms that will reqiure expert examination to confirm but the symptoms I listed above will guide U

katchycouture:
Please sir how does this disease presents itself

CRD chronic respiratory disease
This is the highest broiler disease it can kill in drove

katchycouture:
Haaaa, God forbid, I won't give it to them again...plz what is CRD crisis.

If u serve ur birds raw pkc be it soaked or dried be ready to face CRD crisis this may make loss almost all ur birds
The best way to include pkc in the ration of food u give ur birds is to compound the feed using good proportion for each ingredient

katchycouture:
Is this really pkc, I mean the picture I posted earlier

Is it raice bran or wheat bran

jeckin205:
Op@ can wheat bran be Mixed with commercial broiler feed and feed to broiler chicks

Am good always trying to resolve farm concerns
Ur birds are good
Panting dosent mean ur birds are weak and will die but make sure u ve very good ventilation cos heat can cause that then make sure u have enough water as u may have notice broilers take enough water to avoid dehydration and u know the density of sun this days is much so if ur using a cage that is not very spacious pls cut palm fronds and place them at the roof top to help cool down the weather good luck bro

jfkenny:
Oga Noel has been quite for sometime, hope all is well..

jahofa:
this if a form of masqurade in Cross river or Efik precised called "NNABO" it doest have anything connecting Militancy. this news its is just a Hoax by the Jtf

Looking at it carefully u may be right cos nothing looks very real at the back ground just like the footballer that was killed in rivers the jtf claimed he was killed in a shrine but when channels visited the place it was just a hide out and not shrine, I think this maybe a masquerade arena

erico2k2:
not a real skeleton that one.

Well I guess so

This pics is confusing cos can a dead hand hold an axe upright without going down or is their some spiritual forces supporting that even the standing toes looking so fresh or is it a scripture masquerade shrine cos even most of the tired Skull looks?

I know many of us would have been on count down pls always be watchful once u notice any negetive sign pls ask questions just to be on a safer side

Cos 2 good heads are better than 1

Saintee2009:
so nobody can at least tell me why i had that mortality, what i need to do to avoid future mortality. What may have caused its sudden appetite disappearance, the cause for the yellow n green stool. All of una just abandon my post and moved on. Sigh

U didn't just see it that way the bird must have been avoiding food before u noticed the full blown symptoms the reason why it died is that at that point u noticed the bird it was already weak and immune system can respond to treatment so Pls next time be more careful to avoid this kind of loses

jfkenny:
Day 1: glucose
Day 2 -5: antibiotics + multivitamin
Day 6: anti cocci
Day 7: lasota + milk
Day 8 -9: anti cocci
Day 10: gumboro + milk
Day 11 - 15: antbiotics + anticocci + multivitamin
Day 16: clean water
Day 17: second gumboro + milk
Day 20 - 23: antibiotics + anticocci + multivaite
Day 28: lasota
Day 36: fowl pox
Day 38: deworm
Do I need to give them another lasota and gumboro before sales..

Yes @ 4wks from day 28 which will be day 56 repeat lasota just for routine checks

jfkenny:
I skipped first lasota, please do I need to repeat or forgo it. Birds are 47days today. Thanks..
Secondly, I have been on animal care which is 150 costlier than top and vital, I wish to switch, is there any effect..

The first lasota is already gone just keep once routine date for lasota until sales

No problem in the feed change but support the birds with vitamins during the change to baost appetites and acormodate the new feed

jfkenny:
What's ur female :male ratio...
Mine at 47days..

Very impressive result
Keep it up

DogWhisperer:
Thanks am having small challenges in finishing the new space but soon I would divide them up

K but Pls do fast for best results

DogWhisperer:
My birds at 7 weeks mortality zero, the journey continues, everyday with a new experience which has been inspiring educative sometimes frustrating but thank God for a platform like this it has cushion the effects thanks to Boss neologe82 and other experts here.

Ur birds are looking very good at 7wks but Pls ur space needs expansion to achieve bigger results
Keep it up

iamexcelblog:
We are still hot. New Seeds just arrived. Thanks as you make orders.

How much is ur sugar baby 100g and pls where is ur location

kingjonez:
@noeloge82 Boss, my birds are in their 8th week now and they are doing fine size-wise. i've been feeding them superstarter the whole while, when do I change to finisher (with December sales in view) ?

U should switch to finisher now for best results

lizliz:
Prof noeloge I want to say a very big thank you for keeping up with this thread even at the face negative criticism u always try to keep ur composure and answer questions many of u have been learning a lot

Pls do keep it up we all learn everyday

Thanks for the encouragement
We all learn everyday

jfkenny:
What could this mean, I had coccidiosis outbreak that resulted to death of one of my birds.. Used prococ and dogzegen for the coccidiosis for three days, this is what their poops looks like this morning after feeding.. What does this suggest. it has not been easyoo on this my trial farm...

It's not 100% clear from their system so will need to repeat the treatment or u can ask ur vet for Est mix if u get it use for 3 days but if u can't get it, use ur Provo and dogzygen for another 3 days

Saintee2009:
Are you saying I should switch back to giving them super starter sir? Or you mean i should start giving them finisher from now on bearing in mind they're still going to December. I await your response sir.

Give them finisher to maintain weight and very good size
