davidzfarm18:
Praise God. He indeed is worthy of our praise. You may consider giving a Pre-lay mash as soon as you have 2% production equally you need to take steps to increase the feed intake. Regards.

mercylicious:
@tucurj, congrats oooo.
Am so happy for u. They started early. I hope they also reach 95% to 99 % soon.
It is possible.


Plz where did u buy d layers?

endy247:
Thanx guys @tucurj & eggcellent, let me still be hopeful.

endy247:
pls great farmers i want to ask, at what age did ur birds lay their first egg, cos my birds are 20weeks already bt no egg yet.

jamp:
injecting laying birds will affect production. I had the experience last year when I injected the birds @ almost the same age.production droped and we lost some birds. Since then I ve been using lasota.

NB. This is my own opinion n experience. Others may ve a different view.

Eggcelent:
tucurj. If that is the case, go ahead. I believe it will do just fine.

Eggcelent:
turucj. Why did you wait till now before administering the 1st Komorov? I thought it should be given at the 8th week with the 2nd coming between 16th & 17th week?

If it means borrowing money to complete the vaccination plan, do so. Taking short cuts may work sometimes, but not for long. And make sure that the person buying the vaccine for you is not cheating u. Better buy it urself from reputable places like animal care.

davidzfarm18:
Accordingeto the Vaccination Schedule of Marks farm which you can deploy in ur case. you can give
1. ND+IB Oil. which is not as expensive.
2. You can give Komorov.
or you Simple give them ND+ IB in water.

FarmTech:

I don't understand the question, what do you mean by 40 percent layer concentrate? Also how much kg are you mixing? Is it up to 1 ton?

kelvin96:
Thanks Kelvin,i Was Thinking That It Means 60kg,thanks Once Again For Helping Me Out,God Bless You



60% of 25kg is 15 so ur maize should be 15kg

ultrazone: Using 8-10fish/litre stocking density, you can raise 20-25 fish in the vat. You may decide to increase to 30 sha since you are not producing to a target weight
. Just make sure you avoid over-stocking so you don't attract its attendant negative consequences.

fnk: @tucurj, I hope you understand how @valarinz got you the info about your 50 birds capacity. Just take a look at his table or the explanation he gave above, and substitute the 500 bird capacity to your 50 bird capacity and you will get the numbers he gave you. remember the bags of feeds are packed in 25kg bags, so you divide to total kg you got when you add up the first 4 weeks kg feed consumption by 25kg, that will give you the number of bags that you will need for each feed type at the different stages of the birds to their market size or desired size.

Understanding this will help you increase or decrease the number of birds and still know what number of bags of feeds that you will need.

Hope this helps.

valarinz: Expect to feed them with about 3 bags of broiler starter till week 4, then feed them with about 9 bags of broiler finisher till week eight, your birds should be of market weight by then and you should sell, else they start eating into your profit.

Thanks

valarinz: Bro, just ignore that part that said 'broiler grower', use 'broiler finisher' instead, I guess it obtains in the part of the world where the author of the article where I copied it, hails from. Here in Nigeria, I haven't seen anything like 'broiler grower', only broiler starter and broiler finisher.

Thanks

valarinz: If you're rearing 500 broilers then your feeding cost calculations will be as follows:
Week 1: 0.13×500= 65kg(2.6 bags) and their expected weight at the end of the week is 0.15kg
Week 2: 0.28×500= 140kg(5.6 bags) and their expected weight at the end of the week is 0.36kg
Week 3: 0.47×500=235kg(9.4 bags) and their expected weight at the end of the week is 0.65kg
Week 4: 0.67×500= 335kg(13.4bags) and their expected weight at the end of the week is 1.03kg

and so on till the desired number of weeks.

Thanks
