EMMAACHILE:

Can you do a post mortem? Check any vet shop around. These diseases can vary as some look very similar. Is the stool normal? What of the weight? It can be as simple as heat or Complex as typhoid or a viral illment.

Yes of course sir. But"post mortem" for birds I've threw it away since Sha.
2kg
Stool is brown lotion

EMMAACHILE:

I called him but he doesn't have cockerel. Please I will appreciate if you can recommend another person in Lokoja.

I dont know any other person who breds cockerels. How many cockerels do you really need? Why are you bent on cockerels? Its takes too long to mature.

Not much just for leisure..

You should be looking at other non conventional feeds..
Cassava Peel Meal, Rice Bran, etc to replace maize ....
It should cut down your feed expenses...

Happy new month good friends and great farmers.

Please, I have followed this thread from the beginning and got encouraged to start broiler farm. I bought 50 day old broiler (Agrited). They were all doing well until today.

I just lost three (3) birds. They are 37 days today. This is so painful and I can't trace what is wrong.

Please, I need urgent help.

It's ur location very hot, this usually happens when temperature is extremely high, they usually become very weak before dying.

If the temperature ain't hot then I have no idea what happened

sanni4susx:
I've lost another one please what can I do this is what I noticed from this one bcuz I was there when it happen

I heard the noise so I went there and while still there this chick turned upside down (her back was on the saw dust) and others start some meters away from her and the chick was waving the feather and give up within a minute

Isn't that CRD, do some of them sneeze?
just get tylosin with multivitamin, thats what I use sha

Please help, I don't know what's wrong with my 7 weeks old layers they aren't active like before, their food intake has reduced drastically , what may be the cause and I need possible solution.

Bro pls can you give me a rough estimate of how much it would cost me to raise 200 broilers from day old to finish. Just feed and drugs+vaccination. I am about to embark on a project in School. Thanks.

Average of N800 per broiler excluding cost of bird itself.

Emmaachile I greet you sir

I'm about to venture into this though having little experience in raising of broilers(12yrs back)..
1.How many drinkers and feeders is required for 500 birds doc til maturity?

2. Could newbies like us follow your drug schedule?

1. A drinker per 50 birds. If you have the funds, go for nipple/cup drinkers

2. Yes but you need to be sure of your market before going for 500 birds and above.

Its better you use conventional drugs. If you are sure its diarrhea, you can get a good antibiotics or anticocci to deal with it.

Hello house. I am changing the feed for my 25 weeks laying birds from self compounded feed to packaged feed (chikun feeds), do I have to give the birds any drug for this?

I don't know if people have started buying chikun again.. Pls ask around first before buying the feed to avoid stories that touch

y change feed for birds dt av laid for gud 25wks, be very careful.

But if u must do, it must be done gradually, u can start from 90percent old feed +10percet new , den 75 percent to 25percent, 50 to 50, gradually until u get to 100 to zero percent.

While doing dis place dem on multivitamin and ensure dey are at uptimum health status

All d best

You need an antibiotic drug. The disease is called pullorum. It's caused by salmonella and its best controlled by antibiotics.

I know moringa seed or leaves deals well with all salmonella but I have not used it to treat pullorum before.

Good day farmers
I have been reading through the first letter of this thread till now, I am a newbie who wants to venture into broilers.
I would like to know what is best to use as bedding for the birds, there's no rice husk close by here, so I would like to know other best options please
