I heard a sound like a distress kinda sound, on getting there, i saw a bird on it's back, picked it up and in less than 2 mins it stopped breathing, i couldn't fathom what and how it happened.

risgold:Will this provide the chicks with enough heat? I'm not an expert. Just wondering. |
Re: My Broiler Farm Diary by risgold: 7:09am On Feb 13 |
Kehfie: It is for illumination, the heat we experiencing at the moment is on the high. The bulb lasts 4 hrs. 1 Like |
Re: My Broiler Farm Diary by risgold: 3:05pm On Feb 14 |
This heat is getting excessive, all outlets are opened. Day 7: They were given Gumboro vaccine |
Re: My Broiler Farm Diary by risgold: 3:06pm On Feb 14 |
3 mortalities recorded, i want to assume this was due to heat stress |

Cost of everything is on the high, from chicken net (someone advised boko haram net, i couldn't as it's higher for my budget)

Re: My Broiler Farm Diary by Osinachiadinma: 8:17am On Feb 27 |
1st Lasota should be on the 7th day. 1st Gumboro on the 14th day. 2nd Lasota on the 21st day and 2nd Gumboro on the 28th day. 3rd Lasota follows on the 35th day then they are ready for the market. Well done. |
Re: My Broiler Farm Diary by risgold: 11:12am On Feb 27 |
Osinachiadinma: I used this : gumboro day 7, lasota 14, gumboro 21, lasota day 28 1 Like |
