My Step By Step Journey Into Poultry Business ( Pics) by BNLR(m): 9:52am On Jan 24, 2016 |
I had been motivated in recent time to do more exploit in the poultry biz after my first attempt with just 20 cockrels and presently with 10 layers in one of my vacant room. I need your advice on how i can make it more lucrative and also not using it to disturb my neighbours. I will also appreciate any concept i need to put in place to make it conducive for any type of bird i want to put inside in future. The size of the pen is just 10ft by 20ft. The present stage is just in one week (only me). I just realised i need to provide the space for Door 6 Likes 3 Shares

5 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD START CHICKEN POULTRY FARMING THIS YEAR ! Why Choose Poultry Farming? One of the reasons behind the dramatic rise of poultry farming in Nigeria is the non-dependence on educational background. Every citizen can practice the occupation, irrespective of his or her educational status. The profession can also be pursued with limited capital and resources, but huge return on investment is assured, if you are meticulous and diligent in how you set up and run your operations. Another reason for the rising success of this field is the growing rate of chickens. A chicken becomes fully-developed and matures quite faster. For instance, a goat takes a time span of 2-3 years to mature completely, but within 28 weeks from birth, a chicken can reach a fit state and size that it can be sold at market. Let’s take a deep look into the benefits of poultry farming in Nigeria 1. Reproduction Rate of Chickens: Business in Poultry Farming in Nigeria never leaves you bare handed because you never run out of stock. An average chicken hatches eggs almost every day and four times in a week. Some breed of chickens can produce around 325 eggs a year. By this account, your chickens will produce one egg a day that you can sell every day of the year. leaving out some dry days. If these figures are anything to go by, a chicken can give birth to another chicken twice in three days. Talking bigger, if you breed 500 layers, they will reproduce an astounding 12,000 chickens within a time gap of just 40 days. 2. Chickens Mature Faster: As discussed earlier, a baby chick becomes a full-grown, egg-bearing chicken in a jaw-dropping 28 weeks. This means a pullet is ready to be sold in market as a full-feathered chicken in just seven months. Taking into account such a fast-development process, a farmer can reap returns on investment within 34 weeks of the farm being in operation. 3. Large Markets: The demand for chicken never dies. In fact, it is always there and increasing. In Nigeria, a chest of smaller eggs is purchased for N500-N550, while the bigger ones demand an asking price of around N600-N650. A crate contains 30 eggs. Therefore, you will be receiving approximately N300,000 if you have 500 healthy chickens. 4. High Value, Good Price: Without a doubt! Raising your own flock of chicken will make you realize how lucrative poultry farming is in Nigeria. A customer in Nigeria can easily shell out N2000 – N2500 for a fertile layers chicken. Multiply the amount with the cost if you have 12000 layers in your farm. Now do you see how lucrative poultry farming is in Nigeria? An old layer chicken in Nigeria costs around N1000 to N1200. If you had 500 old layers, you can make up to N600,000 residual income. Then use this money to reinvest to buy a new younger and more fertile flock of layers chicken. Every 12 to 24 months you can continue this cycle for continued success. A 7-week broiler sells for N100.00 to N1200.00. A broiler aged 12 weeks and above will sell for N3000 to N4000. 4. A Rich Source of Protein: Poultry products are a tremendous source of protein, and a key nutrient for a healthy mind and body. Protein is essential for body functioning, energy and muscular development. Also, poultry products are delicious, great in taste and can be used in a range of Nigeria, African and worldwide dishes. For these reasons alone, it is safe to say that the demand for poultry products will never diminish. For me, poultry farming is the best bet if your considering entering the lucrative world of agriculture. Do you agree with the points that I’ve made in this post? Please share your thoughts and any experience you have had with poultry farming(thanks for reading and your comment #prophet_TOSIN_olabode) 12 Likes 2 Shares |
