House pls I need some experience advice, my birds are eating less and laying more. I have only 95 birds and they are laying 92 eggs daily for a month now, and they eat 9.6kg daily. My worry is that it might affect their health in future.


Again is it wise to vaccinated laying birds,

Turks:
They’re at their peak. This is every farmer’s dream. Their uniformity is almost 100%. Your birds are doing great. Be glad. There’s nothing to worry about other than keeping up whatever management practice yours is.

amyzon:


Thanks turks, but pls what can I do to make them eat more. Is it advisable to vaccinate them and when will be the best time to vaccinate them

Turks:
They’re not down with any ailment, you need not vaccinate or give any sort of antibiotics. Just give Vitamins. We recommend giving them ‘Amin’total’ by Laprovet or ‘Vitaminolyte’ by animal care as often as possible. Remember, everything in moderation. All the best.

EMMAACHILE:

You better go back

Smartademu:

My brother EMMAACHILE, please I need your advice. I know u must have had the experience of using gas to brood. How long will a 12.5kg gas last? Because using charcoal is becoming kind of stressful. Thank u.

EMMAACHILE:

That is the way to go. Using charcoal and lantern is really outdated.
Unfortunately i have not used one myself. I have been trying to get one though not serious about it. I saw one in an advert on facebook with this address

GidiPrince:


Those I’ve heard of consume 0.25-0.29kg per hour. It’s good when you have large number of birds. Charcoal can be too stressful.

Turks:
Ours burn 0.18kg/hr. Contact is for your gas brooder on 08026360598 at affordable rates.

Turks:
Broilers or Layers?

JewelRegi:



Am looking at both or what do you suggest.

OlujobaSamuel:
pls where can I get a reliable organisation/individual to supply me doc of reputable hatcheries with goof pricing.
I'm in Ikotun, Lagos.
Thanks.

Turks:
I’d rather you try your hands on broilers first before forging ahead. Raising Broilers will open your eyes to a lot of things regarding birds generally.

JewelRegi:



Ok, so wht are we looking at.

Turks:
Start with 50 Broilers.
