Perhaps the one that is more expensive is the more profitable one...

To me,
Dog is more expensive!
Goat can eat virtually anything. Grasses and left over food.
Pig can eat almost anything, but they eat too much and birth a lot of babies though.

It is not about profitability for now, but so many factors you have to put in place. 1. Fence- without it you will suffer for any animal you rear, from bad neighbors to poisoning and straying away from home. 2. Feeding 3. Sickness and disease 4. It take time and some numbers of animal to profit.

Goats and sheep are cheaper. You can even grow the grass yourself if you have land or rent it.

FIRST OFF REAR SENSE AND ASK QUESTIONS FOR THE INTENDED BUSINESS.


SECONDLY REAR ONE OR TWO DOGS TO GUARD YOUR INTENDED BUSINESS.

THIRDLY REAR GOATS. THEY ARE HARDY AND EASIER TO MAINTAIN AND HAVE MORE MARKET

Depends. If you are doing intensive feeding is the main cost during harmattan you can allow them roam around. Cattles seem to be the cheapest

A conversation to join.

Greatest Of All Time.

Easy to feed because they eat free grass and drink just water.

Then sold easily as meat especially in this part of the world people dont really eat dog meat or pork meat

Use your head

All are marketable.

You can kill them and sell in kilo as frozen food .
But Every business need technical know how, survey, training and the likes.
