They’re of the abor Acre Plus strain. Of course they’ll do well and they’re disease resistant too.

Your dose is wrong.
It's 5ml for 3 litres.
Use a flat spoonful for 4 litres. It's must be level full.
Please how can I get 1gram container to measure drugs because drugs are usually 1gram for dosage

just like i promised oga. this is a simple breakdown of how the business was concluded.
my total cost is 105,000
my total revenue is 156,000
my net profit is 51,000
total number of birds 110
mortality 5
starter consumed 7 bags at 3450 each.
finisher 11 bags 3350
cost of birds 29700
drugs and other mecelaneous items pushed the cost to a total 105,000. i hope this is good enough. i sold them at different price depending on the weight they gained. some where sold for 2000, 1800, 1700, 1500 and the last remaining bird totaling 24 in number (the rejected ones lol) were sold for 1000 each. good night.

What's was the average weight and 18 bags is too small for over 100 broilers.

I agree..18bags is more or less what 50 birds should consume within 8weeks give or take.

Weldone... Wondering how you fed them with only 18 bags and they were looking very good. Did you give them any other thing apart from the feeds? Hope you will do more birds next time cheesy cheers

i gave vitamins which i belive helped in proper feed conversion. hygiene was also fairly maintained, with minimum stress i belive they will do fantastic in weight gain and less illness. i only do this during festive periods because that is the only time you stand to make profit in my market area. anything other than that, most people will be only willing to buy at or below cost of production which is not good for business

my gratest undoing was that i dint weight them. i just separated them into two camps, very big ones and the not too big ones ( resean is because in my area people hardly, infact av never seen anyone buying by weight, they only buy based on how big the bird looks) among the very big one many were sold for 2k to 1800 while the other ones where sold for 1500 last 24 were sold for 1k each because they dint perform well.

True talk, I have been following you and I love your last comment, this will not work for the open and mass market where people target to buy for price as ridiculous as 1,200 per bird.

You cannot wait for the birds to be 8weeks, your target must be delivering between 5 to 6 weeks of age. Profitability is key in this business.

correct. let me be frank with you. open market in my are buy at 900, thats if they are your regular customers or else usually its 800 to 850. its essential people do thier homework before going into this because it can determine whether you make a loss, break even or make profit.

I use enzymes in my feed, they help breakdown nutrients for better utilisation by the birds, most importantly nitrous that helps form amonnia. Enzymes also keep their stool dry and hard.[/quote]

cheesy funny. If you don't have access to enzymes, use Orego-stim. It's similar in operation.
