tunezvic: So I am scoping you ba?, its funny how people like you would seek help from a forum like this with no intention of giving anything back, your response goes to show how naive and selfish you are, what in God's name do I need your formula for?, By God's Grace I don't only mill my feed I own my mill. you have a formula that you don't know the content and you think its a big deal to have a formula. I can give you many for free. 2 Likes |

Pls note,when you start photostimulation,it has to be continous and constant. Else, there would be sharp post peak production decline,which may not be recoverable. FarmTech: |

Bigiyaro, next time you get DOCs from the hatchery or a middleman ask for their vaccination and feeding guide. It's your right. bigiyaro: 2 Likes |

My sincere advice to every novice in poultry farming, including you OP is to sale your layersbirds at 19weeks and go search for serious materials on poultry farming, not just at that make an existing poultry farmer your mentor. i have worked with some of the best poultry expatriates (indians) and for the past 4years i have jacked every online material on poultry. yet i have not setup my farm. and even when am ready, i will start with 500birds for safety purpose. that is howcareful you should be when starting a poultry farm.peace and goodluck |

Please house, I need your candid opinion and guidance on this business I intend going into. I have been a farmer for like 5years now. I majorly did egg during this period, occaionally broilers and cockerels.Now I want to go into boilers in large quantity since I have facility to do so. I need consistent market as I want to be selling every month. I need reliable buyers' contact and the hatchery that have best D.O.C. Every advice is welcome. Thanks for your help. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by kelvin96: 2:32pm On Mar 14, 2015 |
@tunezvic i dont understand why u are so pissed about dis formula....we are all here to share ideas and to help ourselves... nobody is perfect ....we are all learning....so d issue of someone scoping ur formula is uncalled for....it should'nt ve come up. someone like kengeorge is a guru in terms of feed formulation . so for u saying wat u said about him in regards d formula was harsh. meanwhile i got ur mail and i just replied u .. pls endeavour to always add toxin binders to ur feed formulation if u r still using this formula......goodluck |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by kelvin96: 2:37pm On Mar 14, 2015 |
@justified19 Thank God the mortality has stopped. did u use that neoceryl for them? when last did u give dem lasota? and about gumboccine , it is not scarce in benin.....were is ur location? |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by kelvin96: 2:51pm On Mar 14, 2015 |
@tunezviz i just tout u should know. broiler starter mash should ve 3000k cals/kg as ME and 22-24% as CP While chick starter mash has 2650k cals/kg as ME and 20% as CP |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by Nobody: 3:08pm On Mar 14, 2015 |
pharmmylovey:I have capacity of culling up to 10,000 broilers per month, do not worry about the market, where is your farm located? |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by kelvin96: 3:21pm On Mar 14, 2015 |
@doctormalik at wat price are u buying? |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by curiousme(m): 3:45pm On Mar 14, 2015 |
@aAk1 MESUREMENT for DOC is DIFFERENT Now, like i said b4 use (2025 sqcm) for ADULT BIRD WHile U use (225 sqcm) for DOC i.e for a space of 30ft by 60ft, d room/pen will house 1000*2000/225 sqcm =8888.8888 DOC Birds for just MaX of 3 weeks. Mind u Broilar has a different CALCULATION. both calculation is for pullet & corkrel. hope u understand. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by pharmmylovey: 3:45pm On Mar 14, 2015 |
doctormalik:My farm is at Abeokuta. I am currently planning of stocking 2000 birds for a start but I target 10000 birds before the last quarter of the year. My email is fngfarms@yahoo.comfor further discussion. Thanks so much. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by Eggcelent(m): 4:13pm On Mar 14, 2015 |
bigiyaro. As I noted earlier, you shouldn't limit yourself to the antibiotics I mentioned cos, as also noted, what's available in some part of the country may not be so in other parts. Meanwhile, you would be the second person to say Zartech refused giving the brooding/vaccination schedule. Why is the company like that? |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by tunezvic(m): 5:24pm On Mar 14, 2015 |
kelvin96:he took the issue too serious, I was actually joking.. formula is no big deal . there are lot of formula lying around. so he shouldn't take the mater to the heart. my apologises if he his offended in anyway. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by tunezvic(m): 5:31pm On Mar 14, 2015 |
kelvin96:the cp and me of the formula I was using before was according to your specification but the new farm I bought the chicks requested I use their formula. reason that the formula is suitable for their birds. I use to take my feed to Ibadan for cup and me but have being really bussy this days. thank you very much you've really been helpful. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by Nobody: 6:40pm On Mar 14, 2015 |

doctormalik:Drmalik, can u buy from Ibadan. what is ur price range per kg and what should be the minimum number of birds u can take. Also what is the payment modality. Thanks. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by FarmTech(m): 8:51pm On Mar 14, 2015 |
tabontabon:.. True talk. He should also start it when at least 80% of the birds have attain 1.5kg. |
