Some Common mistakes to avoid before starting Organic Poultry farming * Ensure you get the right knowledge.Very imperative in order to avoid story that touch.I remember before i ventured into my organic poultry farming,i read a lot of information about the business,i join so many organic groups and i also did paid training. I kept reading also on the net in order to be abreast of any challenges that might come up.Before venturing into poultry business seek the right knowledge *Housing Birds in an unhygienic environment,this singe act can be very detrimental to the health of the birds and after the success of your business. Dirty environment can lead to many health issues such as respiratory problems, mite/lice infestations and a host of other health issues and diseases. *Not noticing a Sick Bird in time.You need to be very observant.Birds needs to be checked daily.You need to take note of color of the birds poo,feeding habit,activeness etc *Having Overcrowded housing for birds.Overcrowding can lead to stress, cannibalism, feather pecking, and other issues. |
SwitBEsther:* Source of clean water.Very very important. |
So far the birds are doing great with herbs and spices |
AMONIBIA:Thanks No mortality so far The birds came in quite small and i was wasn't happy.I used a new supplier and he pleaded and said it was hatchery problem.Hoping my next back will have the required weight. |

Then later I stop the newspaper and spread wood shaving. I don't use saw dust(my choice) Have a look at the picture,i have placed the birds drinkers and feeders
