They were two months yesterday. Their growth really surprised me. apart from the one that died in the beginning, no other one died. As a result of the bone meal they started taking early, their legs aren't bent. We noticed they're feaces were mixed with blood last week, the vet prescribed some antibiotics. They're okay now though. Sales already started


Thankyou all who followed this thread. I'm sorry for not updating frequently. By God's grace I expect their cage to be empty before the first week of January as I'll be ordering another crate for easter.

My crate of day old broilers arrived last week Wednesday, on the 18th. They were already sprayed their first vaccine. I bought also Amoxy col WSP, neobro and sanctity energizer glucose as prescribed by the vet. They all looked healthy, except one who died later that day. Leaving me with 51 chicks.


These are the pics I took on Wednesday.

OP how many came with the pack? 51 or 52?

Wood shaving could v been used from day 1,,so far you don't use saw dust!

what's wrong with saw dust?

Mix the food with palm kernel and maize, you used alot of bags which make the cost of your production high.

Mr formulation, using formulation is not for every one. The price difference between buying in factory feed and formulation is not much.

one business I fucking love
Poultry farming

Writing from experience...You may wanna elevate their feeders a bit because of problems that may arise from being overweight, because it simply makes them lazy... Having them stretch a little ensures that they mature rightly, with legs strong enough to carry their weight

Heartbreaking... All these love and care, even drugs. Only to sell them to be butchered by gluttons. #TEAMVEGETARIANS
