I have few of these poultry water regulators for sale. For those of us looking to convert our brooding pen to Tip drinkers, this is a must have. It helps you minimize the pressure of the water the the Tips to avoid drenching the chicks and wetting the litter. You need just one for each brooding pen. Each unit of it sells for $69 or more on Aliexpress Each unit goes for N14,200. I also have ball type Tip drinkers for sale. Each one costs N80. Prices are best offer (non-negotiable).

Eggcelent:thank you boss, what antiobiotics do you advice and for how many days am I to administer it? |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by nvgyh: 5:18pm On Apr 13, 2015 |
kelvin961: On the floor Yes I have been given them lasota, it's was just sometimes last month 2weeks after I gave them lasota that they came up with the sickness.. they were doing really fine before that time. It's my first time, I have a friend who claimed to know every down thing about this but at the end I found out he knows just little , today as I write here I just came home from my farm, you can't believe they did just 17crates , this seems to be getting worse and I am really concerned. I have spent a lot of money raising this birds. Pls help! |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by Eggcelent(m): 6:27pm On Apr 13, 2015 |
nvgyh. Don't panic. Keep a cool head. You'll surely come out of this better experienced. How did you administer the lasota the first/last time? Was there spillage? If yes, what did you about the spillage? |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by nvgyh: 7:31pm On Apr 13, 2015 |
Eggcelent: I have two rooms in my pen and about 500birds in each, I will dilute 1000 doses in each big paint container after I have mixed it with cowbell, is the lazota doses too much? ..sometimes there is spillage from the dilution and just clean it up. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by kevin96(m): 11:27pm On Apr 13, 2015 |
nvgyh: Lasota vaccine can also turn into a dreadful NCD if not applied carefully ....I think dis is wat ur case has turn into....... D deed has been done now it is time to give solutions. For me I will advice u treat this birds with neoceryl and gumbocine for 5-6days. Then u placed dem on a good vitamin ..eg amin total , or biovitastress or any other good vitamin dat is high in amino acid. Use this vitamin for 2days ......the immune system of dis birds are down....so dis treatment and d vitamins will help dem gain back their immune system. Then after d vitamin..u will VE to repeat d lasota.. And to my boss @eggcelent please kindly contribute to dis...ASAP..so DAT dis guy can have a relief . @nvgyh watsapp me on 08057012328 for a quicker response.......Goodluck 1 Like |

For fear of disease outbreak, I prefer fish farming, and the labour involved is very little compared to poultry Disease outbreak in poultry production is not often and thus can easily be manage. Fishes are more susceptable to disease than poultry, especialy at the larval stage. A single contact by hand with the water can kill all the larvals in the stocking pond..... You can not culled fish becuase they lived in depth of water buh u can culled chickens as soon as symptoms beging to show up. Meanwhile I don't know the size of the pond you are talking of...but if it is a big commercial ponds especially if it is earthlen pond..bros! The chances of the fishes been expose or prone to diseases is 70%... |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by neyur: 12:08am On Apr 14, 2015 |
nvgyh: What is the gram of the cowbel you mixed with the water and how many satchet did you poured inside each container of how many liters?....if all these measure are not taken into consideration, that means the lazota vaccine might be overdose. Because I believ the essence of pouring the milk is to test the impurities content of the water and thus to make the lazota vacine effective for there system.... Another reason may be as a result of lenght of consumption of the vaccine... For healthy and under good management control, the lasota vaccine shouldn't spend more than 3hours from the time of application. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by neyur: 12:22am On Apr 14, 2015 |
pathology: Conveying 2weeks old chicken to a distance of 10km, has nothing to do with the health of the chicken...all you need to do is cover the truck, pick-up or any open roof car to be use with black cover, that will help to radiate heat. If getin there succesfully, you give the chickens multivitamins or any other antistress vacines. This will help them to recover the body system. D broilers are not the same prior to feeding..cux I may give you figure and later you may discover the figure is bushit....so it depend on ur observation as time goes on with your management. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by nvgyh: 5:10am On Apr 14, 2015 |
kevin96: Kindly enlight me more on how lasota vaccine should be applied, and precautions meant to be taking. How am I to apply these neoceryl and gumbocine? I mean are they to be mixed together and dilute with their water or used seperately. I will message you on whatsapp at dawn. Thanks a lot. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by nvgyh: 5:24am On Apr 14, 2015 |
neyur: Two 17gram of cowbell sachets mixed with each 20liters of water before diluting with 1000doses of lasota each 20l container and that is distributed to about 500bird in the two rooms of the pen. What do you think about that sir? Concerning lasota spillage, what is meant to be done after such thing happened? it is noted that whenever birds are drinking water from their drinker some part drop on the floor of pen. |

i jst noticed that my broiler chicks were laggin behind in terms of growth or body size compared to other chicks of dsame age (4wks) from dsame source- zartech. I use vitafeed broiler starter n sometimes use vitalyte for a few days in a wk. The chicks were recently down wit gumboro bt they've bounced back,thanks to eggcelent,davizfarms,farmtech n kevin96 (very great guys). Pls i need info/advice on how achive my target wieght of 1.5-2kg. I intend disposin them at 8 wks,they will five wks by thurs. Thanks. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by neyur: 4:00pm On Apr 14, 2015 |
nvgyh: Your procedures are correct, buh what I peak from what you type is that, it could probabily seems that the bird could have received the vaccine in excess as in overdose.... That is why the imune systems of the birds could not make an effective use of the vacine. I suggest u hold on a bit and continue with there feeding and also suplement there water with any multivitamins to repaire the damages.... Am afraid to prescribe any drugs or further vacination as the health of the birds may b at risk. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by kevin96(m): 4:06pm On Apr 14, 2015 |

Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by pathology(m): 3:52pm On Apr 15, 2015 |
well ur market determine how u raise ur broilers, are u selling live wt. or kilo wt. whichever one it is u dont need any fattener bc it adds to cost of prodx with little or no added value. if ur birds are well fed i.e feeding ad libitum with regular supply of water, they will do well insha Allah. avoid switching from one feed to another, if vital stay with vital till slaughter, if amo stay wt amo till slaughter. ogas in the house more contributions pls.
