Oga Emma this Ginger & garlic for cough...... How is the mixing proportion with water?

Mix equal

Turks:
*Good source of Chicks
*Clean environment
*Adequate ventilation
*Proper Litter management
*Non-antibiotics/Organic supplements abuse (this hinders growth a lot)
*Biosecurity
*Lighting
*Good feed
*Adequate feeding
*Stocking density*
*Cool clean water

All these put in place will give good results no doubt.

oga please explain the highlighted

Make sure you still to the prescriptions written in the drug. Excess dosage causes resistance to the drug as well as hinders growth.

Local tobacco plant; is it the leaves or it has seeds. It will be hard for me to get, I want to buy the chemical then give it to those that fumigates

You need to plant the tobacco. Snakes usually follow the scent of rodents. Keep your surrounding rodent free and that might keep snakes away

boss u know real constrictors no get hindrance.lolz, I think he/ she should get rid of garbages and maintain a rodent free environment. I swear no snake will ever show up even at night. snakes hate clean environs because its void of rodents..don't go look for any chemical to cause harm to the environment with toxics.
pple abuse use of chemicals.

Lol. Was referring to the venomous ones. Constrictors are on another level..hehe. I’m in complete agreement with your opinion though.

What feed are you using? This is called feed passage

Just get DDforce or Chlorpyrifos insecticide and spray.
The latter is more potent

when u change feed, get a vitamin/electrolytes to help the birds accept the change in taste and nutrition for easy digestion.

Time to switch my broiler feed formula from "grower to finisher". The stool is bulky and large meaning presence of excess cp in feed.
This should not confuse anyone out there. These formula are according to European and International formula and not the Nigeria one.

Ratio of Koudjis finisher
conc: maize: soyabean
1: 8.7: 2.83

Weight of one young broiler at 42 days
Over 5 lbs (2.23kg)
Though many others are larger

I gave them palm oil to prevent fowl pox

Day 46
Approaching the 7th week and ready to slaughter any broiler approaching the 3-4kg weight.

69 broilers remain with 30 sold out.

Day 46
Drug update
Powervit
Sharivit (give occasionally)
Pepper
Pawpaw leaf
Moringa leaf (decoction)
Moringa leaf dry
Bitter leaf
Palm oil for fowl pox
Cucumber fruit for deworming

Current use
Pepper
Powervit
Pawpaw leaf
Moringa leaf dry

I normally use it thrice a week.

In my next batch, I will use a different method using a finished product including the use of polidine.

Day 46
Feed update
Rico Gado super starter
Chikun starter
Koudjis conc.

My observation about Koudjis according to manufacturers specification is that its superior to all Nigerian feeds and maybe one of the reason for the fast growth of my current batch.
Crude protein as high as 23.5% starter (0-17 days), 21.5% grower (17-35 days) and 20.5% finisher (Over 35 days)

I also employed the use of ice blocks in water on hot days and the use of herbs made the chicks almost wormless and pathogen free
