Cost Analysis for 100 layers
The poultry sector is one of the most organized and vibrant segments of the agriculture industry in Nigeria . This sector generates direct and indirect employment and income for about 1.5 million people. The daily increase in population as make the demand so high. Ironically so many people have been misguided into thinking poultry farming is a get rich quick venture with promises of making millions over a short period of time. IT IS NOT TRUE.
Below is a practical street analysis of raising 100 layer birds.


Analysis for 100 layers

Price of chick -#140
100*140=1400
The pullet doesn't eat like broiler so they require 1.5kg for 4weeks
1.5kg* 100=150kg
I. E 150kg/25kg= 6bags

From 4 week-8week they require 1.5kg-1.7kg
But let's use 1.5kg also
1.5kg*100=150kg/25kg=6 bags

Total of chick mash require =6+6 bags=12bags of chick mash
Each feed mash cost =#3500
12bags * 3500=#42,000

From 9-16 weeks
They require 4kg of feed,i.e 2kg per 4 weeks it is not certain but also depends on the breed and the temperature
4kg*100 birds weeks=400kg/25kg=16bags
A bag of grower is 2850 depends on the company feed
16*2900=#46,400
At 16weeks many people will start usin layer mash but is advisable to continue the grower feed till 20weeks of age.
16-20week they will consume 2kg also =2*100=200kg/25kg=8bags
8bags*#2900=#23,200
Summary :
Total bag between 9-20 weeks =24 bags of grower* 2900=#69,600

Total cost so far
Chick= #14000
Chick mash = #42000
Chick Grower = #69,600
Total = 125,600

For the drugs, the standard calculation = 125,600*5/100=#1850*4=#7,440
The price of medication 1850 for each month, we analysis for medication is 4 month.

For vaccination the standard price for each bird is #6 per week,(Gumboro and Lasota only) for 100= #600 per week. For four weeks=600*4= 2400.

Some necessary vaccination for layers

koromorov at 6weeks=#750 for 100 birds

Fowl pox at 8 weeks #700 per 100 dose.

Deworming at 10 weeks #450

Debeaking at 12 weeks #20 per bird= 2,000

Komorov at 16 weeks #750 per 100 dose

Total cost for vaccination = #7,050

Total cost so far =125,600+7,440+7,050=# 140,090

At 21 weeks they sud start Laying.
Will expect 70percent of the birds to be laying.
I. E 70 eggs per day.
We have 70eggs/ 30= 2.10 creates * 850= 1,785 in a day

Feeding per day of layers
100 layers require 12.5kg of feed per day.
Note 25kg of layer =3150, half will be #1575 per day

Profit per day will be =#1,785-#1575=#210.
In a month will have #210*30=#6,300 per month

For A year 12 month, the production usually rise and fall. Let's forfeit a month to Maintain the production standard.
6300*11= #69,300

Spend Layers will be sold
Let say we have 6% mortality and we have 94 birds on ground.

94*1200=112,800 for spent layers.

The total profit = 112,800 - 140,090 = #42,010

This analysis make not be achieved if BIOSECURITY measures is not strictly follow.

Note: for every 6 weeks you do Lasota, which prevents Newcastle, and serve as egg booster.

Medication should also be given at this age I. E., Vitamins, anticoci, and anti biotics should be done at 6 weeks interval

Dear sir, can u plz elucidate on the formula for drug calculations, 125600*5=628000/100=6280. Pls shed more light. And how did u come about the 5? Is it 5 months? Thanks

Thanks OP for your concise analysis and explanation.
I have learnt something today.

A question I want to ask is, how much should be budgeted labour?

ok

it seems going into layers is not profitable at all.

eddyline:

i tink d stress n risk r jst not worth it

U've done a great deal of job here, exactly wat I was looking 4 to at least get insight of layers poultry farming

I have done layers for some years,but since I started cucumbers I am definately not going back to layers,profit too small,risks to much,stress even worse,,

okoroemeka:

Do you think 1,100 layers would fetch N800k monthly? There is existing infrastructure

Good job Your analysis preclude growing egg size. Before disposed my 100 birds they were giving me 500 daily and they were in laying for two years

benzion72:

What do you mean?

Maybe 500 layers will be a good start

presiade:


What do you mean?

You can't use flat rate for egg sale newly laid egg are small and cheaper than old layer egg which are big and command better price

benzion72:

Ok. Did you Mean you were making N500 daily?

presiade:

Yes

How profitable is this cucumber biz

benzion72:


Yes

That's so small...

presiade:
That's so small...

What is the optimum for 100 bird on daily basis

Good analysis... Raising bird is only for smart guys.. Good luck..

benzion72:


What is the optimum for 100 bird on daily basis

If you're not making sales of 2.5 crates/100birds daily, you're probably not breaking even...

presiade:


If you're not making sales of 2.5 crates/100birds daily, you're probably not breaking even...

I do get between 80 to 90 eggs per day

benzion72:


I do get between 80 to 90 eggs per day

So that's good. How much do you spend daily? You should be making more than 5h then

presiade:

So that's good. How much do you spend daily? You should be making more than 5h then

500 is just an average

benzion72:



500 is just an average

You're doing OK then. But your average would be more, closer to 1k

Happy new year and thanks for all the responses. My above analysis is strictly what implies in reality. I am not such farmer that would promise heaven on earth returns in a venture I have been in for the past 12 years. People, pls do not be deceived by anyone telling you of making millions in poultry farming, sure its possible to make millions, but trust me you'd need a great deal of investment, time, patience and luck.

Funny enough, my above analysis isn't even feasible again as prices of feed has more than doubled. In Abuja where I stay, a 25kg bag of broiler starter for instance goes for 3,600. So you see?

And like I'll always advise people who call me, always start small and learn the ropes, it's better than imagining you can simply invest hundreds of thousands and make millions.

I have got my hands burnt over the years due to my naivety. For instance I once stocked 2000 cockerels and lost all of it within two months due to inexperience. So pls, for any agric venture you might wish to venture into, endeavour to seek street knowledge. By street knowledge I mean try to learn from someone already in the business, then grow from there.

Poultry farming is profitable if handled properly with the right knowledge.

This year i will be doing interactive classes on WhatsApp as regards raising birds organically, this is a process that seeks to cut down on geed and drug cost. Anyone interested should pls drop their WhatsApp number only here and I'll add you to a group I will create before the end of January so we can start the interaction at the beginning of February.

Just in case you wish to reach me pls WhatsApp only 08060661311.

Cheers.
Ade.
