Today, we dive into the legendary biblical narrative of Noah and his massive ark. We are exploring the incredible journey of how he gathered every species to survive a catastrophic global deluge. It is a profound story of faith and resilience, detailing how these animals weathered the turbulent seas for forty days and nights amidst the relentless, rising floodwaters.

I came across a content online: https://youtube.com/shorts/Cb_VWQno6i4?si=J7zHWr1l4LGBWL-t
and something came to my mind

DID JUDAH REALLY BETRAY JESUS OR WAS HE JUST PLAYING HIS PART?

Alright, let’s think this through calmly, abeg no insults o, just honest reasoning and small humor, Could Judah really had betrayed Jesus if Jesu and God already planned everything?......Jesus didn’t “guess” the betrayal, He clearly foretold it in the Gospel of Matthew. That already raises a question: if something is predicted as certain, was it avoidable?

Let’s be real, without Judas, no arrest.
Without arrest, no crucifixion.
Without crucifixion… no salvation story.
So Judas didn’t just “mess up”, his action is literally a key part of the entire plan.

Then in the Gospel of John, Jesus tells Judas, “What you’re about to do, do quickly.” I don’t know about you, but that doesn’t sound like someone trying to stop Judah from betraying him, infact there is even a reason to argue that it was the holy spirit that put it in his heart to do so

If Judas had full free will, then God’s plan depended on him making the “wrong” choice.
But if it was all part of a divine plan, then Judas wasn’t exactly improvising, he was playing his role.

Now I’m not saying Judas deserves a “hero of the year” award ooo
But let’s be honest for a second…

If the story needed him, why is he the only one we drag?

So tell me, are we judging a traitor… or blaming a man who did what the script required?

Which chemicals do you mix for the footbath ?

What brand of feed should I use for my Broilers, I usually have problem achieving even growth

Lets Talk About :The Role of Footbath in Preventing Newcastle Disease

Most disease outbreaks on poultry farms don’t start inside the pen—they are carried in on your shoes.

During my first training on a livestock farm, I learned that one of the simplest tools—the footbath—can determine whether your flock survives or not. A footbath is a shallow container filled with disinfectant, placed at the entrance to clean footwear before entry. It may seem basic, but it blocks one of the most common routes of infection.

Diseases like Newcastle disease spread easily through contaminated footwear. When you walk through markets, other farms, or areas with droppings, harmful organisms stick to your shoes and are carried straight into your birds if no disinfection is done.

I once saw a farm that had a footbath, but it was poorly maintained—dirty, weak, and often ignored. Workers stepped over it daily. Within weeks, when the weather was just right for the virus to thrive, the farm suffered a severe Newcastle outbreak and lost a large portion of its flock.

This is the reality: vaccination alone is not enough. If your biosecurity is weak, disease will keep entering your farm. Simple habits matter—like never moving from older birds to younger ones without proper sanitation.

Take footbathing seriously. Your next step into the pen could either protect your birds or destroy them. Before you step into your poultry house today, take a moment to go through my guide on controlling Newcastle disease. It highlights crucial and simple mistakes many farmers overlook; mistakes that can quietly destroy an entire flock.

Nice one

🐔 We Lost 900 Birds in 4 Weeks… Newcastle Disease Ended My Father’s Poultry Farm

Good day farmers,

This is not theory… this is something I experienced myself. Back in 2015, I was just 16 years old when my father decided to start a family poultry farm here in Port Harcourt.

He was Hardworking, dedicated and Ready to invest, But one thing he lacked… was practical experience and training.


How It All Started

He started big with 2,000 day-old chicks. Every morning, we would wear our boots and walk to the farm.
It was just about 3 minutes from our house. Everything felt promising and We all believed we were going to be swimming in chicken money by December .......We didn’t know what was coming.

The Small Sign That Changed Everything

One morning, we noticed something small:

* One bird looked dull
* Another didn’t rush for feed
* A few were just standing quietly

To a new farmer, this is nothing. But today, as someone with experience… I can tell you: That was a CODE RED


T[b]he Mistake That Cost Us Everything[/b]

We ignored it. My dad said: Maybe it’s stress… maybe weather change… after all, this Port Harcourt heat no be here 😅”

But within 2–3 days…

Everything changed.

* Birds started coughing
* Some were gasping
* Feed consumption dropped
* Then deaths started


Newcastle disease hit the farm so fast and so hard…We didn’t even understand what was happening.

Before we could react:

* Birds were dying daily
* Weak ones couldn’t stand
* The infection kept spreading

By week 4…

We were using wheelbarrows to pack dead birds for burial.

👉 We lost about 900 birds

-
💔 The Pain was More Than Emotion....Its Financial

If you are farming in Nigeria, you already understand:

* Feed is expensive
* Medication costs money
* Day-old chicks are not cheap

So losing birds like that is not just painful…

👉 It is a serious financial setback.

In our case, it got worse.

* The farm had to shut down
* My father’s health became unstable
* He was admitted in the hospital for a week

That period was very tough for our family. That experience stayed with me. I kept asking myself:

“What really killed those birds?”

That was when I made a decision:

👉 I would understand what went wrong.



❌ The Mistakes We Made (Many Farmers Still Make This Today

Looking back now, with years of experience in the field, I realize we made several serious mistakes: the most important being that my father didn't go for practical training.

* We didn’t act fast when we saw early signs
* We allowed people to enter the poultry freely
* We vaccinated, but not correctly
* We assumed “it won’t happen to us”

That last one is dangerous.


What 5 Years of Experience Has Taught Me

👉 Hard work is not enough
👉 Dedication is not enough
👉 Finance is not enough

If you don’t apply knowledge in the right areas, you will still lose money.

It’s been over 11 years since that incident.

Since then, I have:

* Undergone practical training
* Worked with commercial poultry operations
* Learned from agro-based institutions

Today:
👉 I run a 500-capacity broiler cycle every 2–3 months
👉 With less than 2% mortality


Being a successful poultry farmer is not enough payback. I’ve written a more detailed guide for poultry farmers to help them overcome the “green monster” (Newcastle disease) that hit us 11 years ago. It covers everything a farmer needs to know about combating Newcastle disease. If you’re interested, you can check it out here: https://selar.com/301793z031


No big grammar. Just what works.



🤝 Let’s Learn From Each Other, I ll always check back to see your response and questions

* Have you ever experienced sudden mortality like this?
* What signs did you notice first?
* How do you currently handle vaccination?

Let’s share… someone might learn something important.

Na good book, it might be worth it......But na only one chapter you give free?... I for like see like chapter 2 too before I buy.

The intro go well
