Good afternoon everyone. I also bought mine on the 18th, I lost one bird so far. I just saw it this morning shaking and within minutes it died. Also, what could be the cause of this. It was lying under the light bulb and couldn't move......I am giving them Neimycin as anti biotics. And how do I know when temperature is to high or too low..... please reply, am just starting.
To measure the temperature and humidity of the space is not hard and expensive. Just wondering why you are doing guess work.

Disadvantage of ad-libitum is plenty poo. This litter was changed today and is getting full already. So far, no antibiotics given. We are testing this batch against our self formulated feed with inbuilt feed addictives including prebiotics, probotic, enzyme and acidifier.

The only drugs given is Amin'total multivitamin in water and even this can be built into feed.

I am trying to get a turnkey solution where you wont need to include any drug in water and a kind of set and forget approach to the poultry feed industry. So far this chicks are on track with the growth chart.
Brilliant!

There is absolute no need for antibiotics when one gets to a stage. Now I love you more. This Nigerian, I want to associate with. This Nigerian I am so proud of. This Nigerian is going to places. Mark my words, you are going to be successful. It is written all over you.

Even pharmacologists, micro-biologists, pharmacists are turning to natural nutrients these days. Prevention is better than cure. The idea is that the body is built to defend itself.

1. Good hygiene
2. Building strong immune system from day 1
3. Good feeding plan
4. Using less chemical and antibiotics is the way forward.

Nothing beats it. This is the way forward. I am launching poultry very soon by God's grace.

Do you still have concentrate? Is the offer still on? I will like to know the price and details about it. I want to try it.

What is your take on lightning?

Am actually new to this, in fact I can't sleep again because am always going back and forth to know when heat is too much, they are 5 days old today.......The thing is that I have up to 22 hrs power supply daily at my place so am using just the light bulb as the heat source. So I sometimes feel it not enough or too much.

Re: ... by KayCee92(m): 9:23am On Oct 22, 2019
nwabuwa:

high temp...birds are panting and far away from charcoal.
low temp..birds are clustered close to the heat source..
good..birds are evenly distributed and running around happily..


This is very useful, thank you very much.

Stop doing guess work. Do not listen to if the birds are cold they get away and bla bla bla. Use equipment to get it right so they do not even run from the bulb, or clog around it. You may need to find a way to change temperature by increasing the height of the bulbs, or by reducing the bulbs. It is even better to get a heater connected to a thermometer so it can be automatic. It is not expensive to construct such. This is why many dont get it right. When you know the theory well, you can plan towards achieving optimum condition. Again there is another for humidity.

Pls gurus in the house help me out,I changed my feed yesterday from breedwell starter (Crumble) to breedwell grower (Pellet) ,though i didn't change completely i mix the starter with the grower and give to them....but i discovered today lots of watery poo and they've refused to eat like before.

The concentrate has been sold off since. For now, we don't have until December, before I get the next order. I am trying to see the effectiveness of this particular mixture. I also have an offer of using Miavat concentrate from Germany. I will have to test that one on a farm if eventually I get to run one.

Having two choices from the best nutrition companies will be great.

On lightning, I also have 24 hours for the chicks except on few occasions where I have to power off the lights between 7 to 9pm for them to rest.

Lol. That should be as a result of weight. It’s sometimes normal for broilers.

What vitamin is being used? You don’t change feeds suddenly, it’s to be introduced gradually. [quote author=woffie04 post=83414741][/quote]

Budget N1000 for each broiler to get between 2-2.5kg weight

No it’s not. Either Polidine, iodesteryl and Neodine can be administered to birds.

Oga Turks, can you please explain the dosage of the Polidine + Admacine treatment?
Re: ... by Turks: 4:23am On Oct 27, 2019
Polidine is written on the label
Admacine is 3g/L (beware though, Admacine doesn’t dissolve well in water)

Re: ... by Turks: 4:24am On Oct 27, 2019
Good one sir. Use Amintotal or Vitaminolyte or Miavit.

These are really good vitamins.

Day 15:
Average weight of about 530g (517g-583g) with the smallest weighing as low as 215g. I think it should be a cockerel.
Drugs used so far are an antiviral and anticocci in the first week and Amin'Total. Gumboro Vaccine was given yesterday.

So far so good, All the birds are walking normally as i suspect the monocalcium element in the feed coupled with the enzymes are doing their work. Our targets are still on track.

Re: ... by Nobody: 1:16pm On Nov 02, 2019
Last pix is the smallest in the batch.
