EMMAACHILE:

Stop the additions. Chikun feed is very good. What you need is feed all the time including night and make sure there are healthy.

How are you doing... Long time. I am the Noiler guy. I don't know if this is the username you know me with, that's why I am introducing myself. Anyway, I can see you are really doing good with Broilers now and I want to find out some things from you. I see a lot of people posting pictures of their 5 weeks old broilers that have already reached market size. I am thinking of trying out broilers for the first time and I want to know how much it would cost to raise broilers from day old to 6 weeks... I mean how much averagely per one bird.

EMMAACHILE:

I remember. Cost of raising broilers if you follow all things diligently will be around 900 maximum to achieve 2.3kg in 6/7 weeks

UPDATE:

Please guys, one of the chicks died without any symptom. I am surprised about it.

what must have caused it?

Secondly ,

In my eyes, they are not growing that big and still skeptical about them being able to make it for christmas.

I add fishmill and soyabean to their feed everyday to boost their growth?

Does anybody have an idea?

Thank you friends in anticipation for your swift response.

UPDATE: Thank you all for your professional advise..
Pls what can I add to make their bones stronger?
secondly, i discovered that my birds are now coughing, what can I apply to stop the cough?

I am feeding them well, hope they will make it for xmas with only feed? any idea of drugs to add to boost their growth will be appreciated.

Thank you very much in anticipation for your swift response.

professional , please help!

A farmer said, Ventilation affects the size of broilers.

how true is it?

EMMAACHILE:

True

Thank you. I am rearing my birds, I kept about 50 birds in one of our abandoned rooms in my compound.

I believe they should weigh upto 2.5kg, I feed them alot.

Somebody told me that because I kept them in a room, that's why they are not tall or big.

I am wondering the relationship between proper ventilation and the size(tall ) of the chicks.

#I am worried , I have invested over 100k for this project.

Turks:
It has a lot to do with the breed not ventilation. Ventilation is directly proportional to the health of the bird and has nothing to do with height or weight gain. I’m sure you have either the ABOR ACRE or HUBBARD strain. Nonetheless, your birds seem to have good weight at 7weeks. What hatchery are the birds from please?

EMMAACHILE:

What breed? Are you windows permanently locked?
How many bags of feed and whats the age?

inteligente:


Thank you. what is the meaning of Abor acre or hubbard strain?

I dont which hatchery where the birds come from? I bought it from one poultry woman.

#this is my first time

inteligente:


They are broilers. They are always opened. Over 20 bags, each bag i bought about #4k.

The chicks are about 8 wks old

Turks:
Breeds are also known as strains. Every hatchery to its own breed. Abor Acre is the name of a breed. There are a number of breeds e.g the Hubbard, Abor Acre, Marshal, Anak, Ross, Cobb. You need to know what strain you’re buying next time in order to know what to expect. Thanks

inteligente:


Thanks. which of the breed is the best for commercial purpose.

Turks:
It all depends on the purpose of raising the birds. There’s nothing like ‘best’ broiler breed sir.

Chimechs2016:
Good morning, please I need to ask this because of next time, I lost in total 10 broilers dues to sickness. They usually excrete Green shit. I mean their shit is green, what drugs go I administer to them because I can't seem to get past it. Each time it happens they eventually die, because I only give them Antibiotics. So which drugs is the best to give thwm
