The floor is becoming wet and I think it's time you change the litter to avoid disease. 2 Likes |

Pls OP, where did you get the birds? From a poultry or roadside seller. Thought you started with 100 birds, how come they are 79? |
Re: Cost Of Raising 100 Hundred Broilers In My Home-made Poultry by Help4rmme2u(m): 10:55pm On Jun 16, 2018 |
bioemmy: No, not road side dealer, but a major dealer around gwarimpa in abuja, he buys from hatchery and sells ,, his birds are well treated with necessary vaccines.... And sorry 99/100 ,, but I believe this is normal... And as it stands all are looking healthy and growing fast |

Help4rmme2u: Am not a commercial breeder. I just do few ones at home and eat when they are grown. I read some of the tips on nl and applied to the few ones i raise and no mortality so far. On your question, my experience with birds opening their mouth is due to dehydration or heat. Am sure you notice that in the afternoon when it's hot right? It means they are not getting enough ventilation. I have read through your posts and responses, the contructuon of your pen is nice but needs adjustment for enough vebtilation. Kindly remove some planks, use tarpaulin for covering when you notice the weather is down. This is very very important. God bless your hands, as you start you will increase by God's grace. 9 Likes |

Ogunleti01: I understand you, it could be both..if immune system is low..opportunist infections might set in...I said coccidiosis because OP might not be duly informed, as he might be taking that head movement for something else...only concrete thing he said is red poo...my take...not saying your give was wrong...Nervous paralysis is onbiously a symptom of Newcastle 1 Like |

Help4rmme2u: You need to be sure of what symptoms you seeing!,, If you seeing blood stained poo, its cocci for sure and it is a silent killer.....check their poo very well to be certain Newcastle is a viral disease which I am very sure you are well aware of..because you must have vaccinated them with lasota at least twice by now... Symptoms include muscle paralysis, legs and thigh begin to dry, green poo. |

Help4rmme2u: Nice. I get mine from two weeks old and not more than 20. My own safeguards has been giving them garlic second day of buying them, and depending on weather i give panadol when it cold. It drive cold away from them immediately. I also give bitter leaf, vitamin c, and ugu leaf. Vitamin c makes them eat like anything and ugu makes them big. I raised cockerel in two months with this method. Even the seller dint believe it. Let me also add, the most recent i got were very fragile, some couldnt even stand well. I bought calcium, ground it and add to their food, i did that twice and the result was superb. They fly like anythings now in their cage. Also, when its very hot, i give them cold water. I take block from freezer atimes and add to their water. 7 Likes 4 Shares |

@ OP it's nice starting up something with what you have, and Great minds has already giving you all you need to run a successful farm, but I must add some for you, when you see your birds panting its definitely means they need more air/ventillation, you can also buy vitalyte or glucose it's very useful. When you see them sneezing it means the wood shavings might be dusty or CRD, when you see blood poo is means coccidiosis and the first thing to do is to change the litter materials immediately and make sure you avoid wet litter and change immediately it gets wet or dirty. The reason for having a cross ventilation in a poultry pen is not only for heat stress, but to also help you maintain a well and proper litter material. I hope you look into your ventilation issue because you are dealing with broiler's and heat stress is not something you would pray to know its effect. Thanks 2 Likes |
