Olugids:Water is very important for Ducks. When I said water, I mean the one they can swim in. Don't be surprised if later, your birds migrate to where they can get water if you don't provide one. |

gaby: No be usa u dey ohhh.. security first .. insecurity is the major killer of nigeria's untapped forestry .. houses would be cheaper, transport cheaper cos of diversification, most peeps wld just buy large lands invest in agriculture and also build a home on the farm.. but insecurity has made a few states choked up in terms of accommodation&welfare while leaving the fertile states fallow and uninhabited due to insecurity.. |

Olugids: Do you know anyone who rears ducks in Lagos? |
Re: Duck Farming: Let's Journey Together by NaijaPropagato: 7:10am On Apr 07, 2023 |
I farm ducks. They sell ducks in many markets in Lagos and Rivers State. You can check online farm sites to buy them, the market or ask around for [color=#000099][/color] duck farmers to get starter ducks. It is more expensive than chicken. It is sweeter. You can sell live, roast or fry and sell yourself or supply restaurants or companies or market it directly to customers. You can buy a large shallow basin in the market 2k to 3k or several and fill with water for your ducks to dip in and they will be fine. Yes, they eat bitter leaf, paw paw, water melon, fruits and alot of leaves. They can eat the shaft of corn, garri and worms. Hygiene is important for them. Change their water everyday and don't let their food go bad especially for the young ones. Their most fragile period is when they are young but after that their survival rate is high. To get them to produce more eggs, you need to increase their protein intake by giving them moringa leaves, fish head or crayfish or left over protein or grounded up bones. They can lay up to 25 eggs per cycle but that depends on how God wants to bless you and I believe they are ready to reproduce again after 3 months of giving birth. You should start with adults and not children because they need their mothers to help them at the early stage. It is better to start with one adult male and one adult female. The male can be aggressive and as your farm grows, it is better to have a higher female to male ratio. Don't sell your females for business but sell the males because you don't need that many males to grow a farm. The males can cause more stress managing as they are territorial. |

KanesHost: Pls if one does duck farming on a fairly large scale, is there readily available market for say 100 to 150 ducks weekly? |
Re: Duck Farming: Let's Journey Together by KanesHost: 6:30am On Apr 08, 2023 |
steel5800: In the town where I live, you can't find ducks to buy at the market. They are booked well in advance. That's to tell you how scarce they are. So, the answer is yes, there is a readily available market. |
