New Hope Grower Bag 321 is N13,950 @Agbara, (The dealer is a friend). N14,250 @ Agric Ayetodo farms at Ojo Barracks.

A dealer I know sells her New Hope feed for broilers at N18200. Another one I know sells for N18500 and N19200.

jidestroud:


Broiler still depends on the Number. 520 is N15,900.

He is talking about 520 here. Blue bag.

Yours is most likely the professional line which are yellow bags. If so, 600 bags is the minimum you can buy from the company directly at whole sale price. So, the prices you have are in order. Each line has I think 3 kinds of products. For the professional which I prefer for 6 weeks aggressive bulk up, they have starter crumble, starter pallet or non pallet or so, and finisher pallet or non pallet. Not sure of the non pallets cos I always use pallets. And they are different prices.

The lines have different nutrients, crude protein, energy levels etc. You need to understand all the lines New Hope has got so you can choose wisely.

Depending on your broilers' breed, you should choose wisely.

I wish to start 50 boilers by the end of the month I be newbie , should I disembark

There's no harm in trying bro, but make your research regarding cost of production and what it costs at the end of production to know if the profit is commensurable with the input.
Secondly, do you have buyers readily available to offtake them from your hand immediately they are due for disposal, else they end up consuming the profit you are supposed to make.
Sorry for replying a little bit late.
All the best.

The Usual Update

One of the beautiful thing i love about my poultry is the invasion of snakes. After all these months of peaceful cohabitation between me and the pythons, one decided to go rough tonight. Just as I was about hitting the bed and calling it a day, I decided to do a quick check one last time. Lo and behold, Miss Python decided to breach our agreement by trying to climb the barrier and attacking my birds... .
Sharp sharp, with my sharpened short cutlass, na so i sentenced the rough snake to snakeopia. Off with its head, with one mighty swing of my cutlass which has never disappointed me.

Nice one Spartacus

I sure will.

Thank you so much for this information sir. At present, I can only be available on some weekends to go see for myself since I will be busy working. Though I have someone who can be available to supervise when I am not around.

Please don't do this if you won't always be around.

Read again.

These are 8 weeks birds. The birds i started with are already 5months plus and 5% already dropping eggs.

Moreover, these are birds raised by a farm which I supervised, but unfortunately, the owner is hit by the japa syndrome (hope u understand what I mean).

Thanks.

Quick Update on the 8weeks old layers.

72 pieces more available.

What is the feeding schedule for layers

From DOC to laying.

For Broilers I know you feed with Starter then switch to Finisher around 4 weeks until you sell.

I will like to know the schedule for layers. Is the starter for Broilers and layers the same?

Still very much into this project... Not abandoned biko . Like I said from the onset, the sole aim is to produce eggs for personal consumption and well, maybe sell some if it becomes too much to consume

For those inquiring about the pen I was building, it's been finished a long time ago. Will get my cages soon jare!!! I no wan rush myself biko...lol

Updates on the birds

So far, so good. Mortality rate was minimal, a total of 10 birds were lost.
Sold off the rest after series of pressures from buyers hahahahaha!!!

Sold at 22 weeks at N4,700.

Kept 115 birds to myself and they are presently giving me an average of 2 and Half crates a day. (Poor or not, make i leave them like that).
