idrisaleo1: Okay. Better. Best to stick to the commercial feed, even if you reduce their feeding. |
Re: Starting Kuroiler Farm. Journey With Us. by olab059(m): 1:02pm On Nov 07, 2022 |
idrisaleo1: He probably was feeding them with formulated feed. It will take longer, but they will eventually start laying. 1 Like |

idrisaleo1: Don't you measure their feed you? |
Re: Starting Kuroiler Farm. Journey With Us. by babavik: 1:37pm On Nov 07, 2022 |
idrisaleo1: Noo from my broiler experience you don't just change feed overnight. You mix their feed in the ratio of 3:1, 3 parts of old feed 1part of new feed. Next week 2:2, upper week 1:3, t?start reducing increasing the new feed and reducing the old feed until you have only new feed. 2 Likes |

olab059:This is shocking oo ![]() ![]() Please what was their weight at maturity? How many months does it stay to mature? Is their carcass be good for frozen chicken business? |
Re: Starting Kuroiler Farm. Journey With Us. by olab059(m): 2:17pm On Nov 07, 2022 |
babavik: I don't know about the bolded. What I know...at 3 months, they will be over 1kg...maybe 1.8kg...some will be over 2 kg. But the magic happens between 3-4 months. By 4 months and beyond, they get to the 3-4 kg territory. 2 Likes |

babavik: The change really affected them that they can barely stand and we lost some sef. We went back to industrial feed and they are getting better. The formulated feed was a lot more expensive but less effective. We wouldn't be going back to that soon. 1 Like |

babavik: If you wouldn't be free-ranging them, I wouldn't advise you raise them for frozen foods. Do your broiler jeje and slaughter 6 weeks. |

She don hatch since Saturday, but I'm not happy because most of the eggs did not hatched. She hatched just 1 turkey, 2 noiler and 2 naked neck. I remove all the chicks on Sunday and gave her 17 naked neck eggs to brood for 21 days, she is sitting on them, I will take care of the chicks 3 Likes

Damolaaa: Just buy 6-7 weeks Noilers/Kuroilers. If you have compound, just let them roam around, and feed them once or twice a day. 3 Likes |

Farmtech, i am currently following your feeding chart for pullets: weight and dialy consumption. What was your result and production when you did yours? Do they produce for a year+ ? Hope you are still in the poultry business? |
Re: Starting Kuroiler Farm. Journey With Us. by idrisaleo1: 6:23pm On Nov 08, 2022 |
PapalsBull: We bought pellet and it's for 6500 |

idrisaleo1:she is eating normal o, I do take her out to eat myself daily. But untill she gives me the result I desire, that's when she will rest |
Re: Starting Kuroiler Farm. Journey With Us. by idrisaleo1: 7:23pm On Nov 08, 2022 |
Redomi: Haha....I seriously think she needs to rest. It's not about feeding. Having to be on a spot doesn't look cool. Build yourself a small wooden incubator and hatch as many eggs as you want. |
Re: Starting Kuroiler Farm. Journey With Us. by Redomi(m): 7:45pm On Nov 08, 2022 |
idrisaleo1:I have knowledge about building or operating an incubator |

PapalsBull:. It has been a long time. I think I achieved up to 95% lay until a small negligence lead to disease outbreak. I blamed it on not cleaning their pen as I normally do. So ammonia gas reduced their immunity and caused CRD/Coryza outbreak. They later recovered after spending on drugs. Some died too. . I couldn't continue because my mum sold the old layers on credit to her friend. And up till today she has not paid oo. I have to divert unprepared into crop farming. It was tough but I'm rising slowly. . Yes, I think they produced for that long. Feed cost is now something else. I have my eyes mainly on ruminant farming. . How many birds do you have? 1 Like |
