Hot weather is not conducive for the birds hence they are stressed up. that's why it's better to administer ur vaccine early in the morning or late evening.





fnx boss, 1 one more question. I bought 50 day old chiks so as at 3 week I noticed many of the has deformed legs, way can I do pls

Location is Ofada, Ogun State. I do not have the pictures with me to upload, when I get to the farm on Monday I will take pictures. As we speak, birds are still in the cages to be culled anytime from now. I dont have the dimension off hand except I measure but it takes 4 birds coveniently in a cell and 96 birds in a unit. The cage is electro galvanized and bought from Olamesh in 2013. I asked you to come for inspection to see things as tgey are. The pen is to be converted to Brooding pen and thats why we are selling. Thanks.

Blink,

The losses occurred due to improper handling on delivery to us, the chicks were already very tired when they came and we didn't take them to the brooder house immediately. The delay must have tired them. They died mostly within the 1st 1Week,  but since that time there hasn't been any mortality.

The next set of 500birds should be landing tomorrow, I will keep you guys posted on updates. smiley


pls i will like to know why u brought the chicks in batches because u would have made it 1000 @ once. thanks for your reply

#380 per kg. Besides, they only want between 1.8kg -2kg birds. You will be penalise if it's higher than 2kg or lower than 1.8kg because it will be consider as overweight or underweight.

The minimum investment capital is 1 million and above.

Thanks for response God bless you, I seems not to understand the minimum investment capital, is the 1 million for the pen and the DOC or what?
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by yemmit90: 5:54am On Feb 13, 2016
[quote author=Fumbaby post=42871433][/quote]

The minimum number of birds you can buy from them is 2000, and for you to raise 2000 birds from DOC to 1.8kg-2kg require nothing less than 1 million naira plus other litle expenses. You may wonder why you have to spent that much;

DOC - 300,000

FEED, there is no way you wont spent 700,000 or above.

100,000(excluding workers salary) should be enough for your miscellanous.

Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by eggxel: 3:10pm On Feb 13, 2016
Good day house. My birds are now producing eggs to the glory of God. They started laying at 19weeks and 5days and two weeks later we are doing 20% production daily (equivalent to 18crates considering the numbers I have). At maximum capacity I should collect 80 crates daily. My farm is located in the Abuja/nassarawa axis and I have eggs to sell to interested esteemed house members. Also, if you have clients/customers who wish to buy in my axis, please contact me. I can be reached on 08035993454. Cheers.
