My Sasso Chicken Farming From Day Old by Redomi(m): 1:28pm On Nov 18, 2020 |
Hello Nairalander, I wanted to try something new apart from broilers, Noilers and Kuroiler. There is a new specie known as Sossa popularly called Red Chicken, they are stronger than Noiler and big like broiler, though they take three months to reach good weight. A male Sossa can reach 5kg and Female 4.5kg at maturity. I have order and they will arrive Friday morning. just one carton and 5 foreign poults (turkey). I will be updating with picture, I will sell the male and keep the female for egg purpose since they can lay 240 egg per year |

Redomi:Always remember to mention me with each new post sir. If you don't mind, how much did you get a d.o.c of the sasso chick? It made sense that different varieties are being introduced into our agric sectors these days; come to think of it, the quality and strain is likened to one other strain from middle east known as KABIR chicken, same physiology, same multicolor variation and lots more........my belief is that most of the birds are named according to the environment they are introduced from Though i'm yet to hear of any hatchery presently into the production of KABIR CHICKEN at the moment in Nigeria, but seeing that SASSO CHICKEN got introduced, let's keeps hoping for more better intros which are pocket friendly. |
Re: My Sasso Chicken Farming From Day Old by Redomi(m): 7:23pm On Nov 19, 2020 |
chukskafor:Yes, same with Kabir chicken. I will update you tomorrow |

My Sasso chicks are so happy tonight, running up and down. mixed with different colours, I thought they will be red colours only untill I check them, because I saw people nicknamed them as "Red Chicken". Actually their size at day old look like a day old broiler size, perhaps that may happen because of the parents eggs. They are consuming so much including those foreign turkey. Crops is so big. Despite heat everywhere, they still need more heat, I have to light the charcoal for them. Male I no lie, I like this Sasso broilers o, I need to order for more before the price goes up. They are dual purpose birds. 1 Like |
