I can see you're really doing great bro...... love to learn from your pix' and comments.
Thanks for your comment and observation...
Am just trying to enjoy what I love doing. It's great fun to watch them grow.
I tried lantern for my last brooding but they used to go off unexpectedly,may be it's the kerosene or the lantern.

Day 4:
The charcoal for heating finished,had to get #200 charcoal for last night.
Half bag consumed already,the way they consume the feed is alarming.
3rd day of antibiotics.Birds are doing good-drinking and feeding well.

Day 3:
Birds are doing fine.They started antibiotics yesterday,taking it for 5 days.
3 mortality so far- 1 male line,1 sayed and 1 foreign turkey.
the ordinary broilers are doing okay with no mortality so far,they are very strong and aggressive.

As you can see from my profile,I'm relatively new on Nairaland and I get to understand the rules by day.

Livestock keeping is what i love doing from childhood.
I basically got to Nairaland through research on how best to be a farmer in this 21st century starting from my backyard.

Anyways thanks for the one kobo/one billion advice.
Now I understand better.

My backyard is becoming very busy oh... added another set of birds to my backyard,quite a number this time -170 birds
Broilers - Obasanjo male line - 50,
sayed-50
Unknown hatchery - 50+10 extra(from a friend who is an experienced breeder in Ibadan)
Turkeys - 10(local and foreign)
I got them this morning,gave them double shot of glucose.
I'm starting them with breedwell feed.they say one can brood for 9+10 days with it...wait and see.
This is 3rd batch in my backyard...pls wish me luck

Agriculture / Re: How Much Will It Cost Me To Start A Poultry Farm? by tasho105(m): 9:20pm On Jul 21, 2017
@dchinky I'm taking the analysis as housing is already on ground and your location.so many things is involved here...it's the feed formulation cost that I will not agree with.You are reducing cost though, but quality feed is not that cheap

quote author=dchinky post=58689846]Good day salami,really amazed at the fact that you stated that one can start a broiler farm with 49k?.please am not trying to run u down but please don't misinform people. For a start in the brooding room,is it only stove and charcoal that one needs?what about the nylon that are needed to retain heat and also shield the birds from adverse weather? So housing is easy like that?I didn't see your estimates for woods (different types ), nails and zinc? Viz a Viz their current prices in the market.
Tasho please go and make your own findings else u will regret it. I just set up a Poultry farm housing 600 layers and 150 broilers so I know that u can't start with that amount [/quote]
Agriculture / Re: 100 Broilers And 20 Foreign Turkeys In My Backyard by tasho105(m): 6:27pm On Jul 21, 2017
Changed my mind about the wood shavings, won't want them eating it... I also heard that breedwell feed is great for birds, so I bought 2bags of breedwell super starter feed for them, heard they help in brooding them for btw 9-10 days, fingers crossed though... Wish me well. Lol

Agriculture / Re: Xmas Broiler Broading In Pictures by tasho105(m): 4:53pm On Jul 21, 2017
...from two weeks*
Agriculture / Re: Xmas Broiler Broading In Pictures by tasho105(m): 4:51pm On Jul 21, 2017
noeloge82:

Correct.starting from Work weeks, there's a lot of difference in weight...broilers are heavier than noilers


Boilers are mostly brown , black colours and u can ve some white in colour but broilers are always white and some few times it may have very little spot so on day old they are very except if u have a white boiler mixed in the broiler cartoon but as they grow the difference is very obvious even at 3 wks broilers starts looking bulky while the boilers don't look as bulky as broilers
I hope this helps
