With Age of ur birds just stick to Hybrid and give ur birds Promin for improved health and that will also help the Egg size if u keep forcing increase size of egg at this their young age it will lead to tear and that will adversly crash ur production target but if u give them promin within the next 1 month their will be gradual size increase which will pay u in the long run Goodluck to U abidecz: |

pls house i'm waiting for your response @ jamp what abt u |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by Eggcelent(m): 1:05pm On Dec 27, 2015 |
Nbg4real. I believe you are not a first-time farmer. Therefore, my advise will be that you follow the brooding/treatment schedule that HSS worked for you previously. Better still, follow the schedule issued by the hatchery from which you got the birds. abidecz & grade1. I don't know if there is any "best" feed which makes laying birds produce bigger eggs. However, you may wish to note the following; the weightier a bird is at commencement of laying, the bigger the eggs produced will be; 2. the older a bird gets, the bigger its eggs become; 3. healthy birds lay bigger eggs; 4. birds need 16 hours daylight for maximum output. jamp. I believe AnimalCare is only subsidizing its feeds at your end just to penetrate the market. The pricing may change sometimes soon. Success All. |

Nbg4real: I will advise you to follow the document given to you.I think it's better you use antibiotics and not follow the advice. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by jamp: 3:08pm On Dec 27, 2015 |
Nbg4real: my dear you are on track. Just give them MV,glucose n mild antibiotics for one week 0-7days then you can continue with MV. @eggcelent i reject any increase ijn amen.thanks |

Mykeolinks:please o oga eggcelent and Co I'm waiting for your responses o... Help |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by Eggcelent(m): 7:46pm On Dec 27, 2015 |
Oga Mykeolinks. I read your request the first time. However, I didn't make any input then cos I considered your question ambiguous. And I still do. The reason for this is that vaccines requirements differ from one hatchery to another. Therefore, my piece of advice will be that you get your DOCs directly from a reputable hatchery where you will be given the vaccination schedule on demand. Meanwhile, you may consider starting with 200 DOCs for a test-run. Success |

Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by Nbg4real: 8:48am On Dec 28, 2015 |
morning all! thanx for your contributions. Another issue is that i'v been using kerosene stoves but the farm attendants are very careless sometimes they don't operate thr stoves properly as the result it will generate smoke insidr the brooder. I want to change to gas stoves (those that the heat source is on top of the cylinder) i. e boyh the cylinder and the heat source should be inside the brooder. the problem is that i don't know whether the higher temperatures inside can make the gas to explore pls educate me on ds aspect |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by Ishowdelkonsult(m): 3:52pm On Dec 28, 2015 |
Bishiie: In two aspects, Adding value is of two types either at production level or at product marketing level, At production level, 1.)Layers; by making sure the layers lay effectively by monitoring the feed production, feed distribution,vaccination schedule, medication etc. 2.)Broilers; by making sure they convert the feed given to meat through adequate attention to details. At product marketing level, 3.)Layers; by packaging the egg into sizeable packs, correct sorting, aggressive marketing of eggs using promo 4.)Broilers, by killing the broiler; adding primary, secondary and tertiary packaging etc |

Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by Ishowdelkonsult(m): 3:58pm On Dec 28, 2015 |
Nbg4real: Brother, why not switch to coal. Just buy coal pots and use charcoal.. By the time you enter the brooding pen and you are not comfortable standing there, even the birds are not comfortable. |
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by jamp: 4:00pm On Dec 28, 2015 |
Nbg4real, Its not advisable to use both the cylinder and the burner inside the brooding house since you said the farm attendants are careless. You can try charcoal pot, its cheaper and safer than gas stove. You can use the charcoal pot early in the morning and late in the evening while the kerosene stove can serve during the day(for easy monitoring). |
