Can you prove that the demand this year is higher?
And who told you demand alone is what drives prices up. Were you not taught about supply in your basic economics?
So has supply suddenly become limited that demand alone will drive the price of chicken to 7000 naira?

Chicken! Have You Noticed This?

With just 5 days to Christmas chickens are everywhere already. Today after church, me and my siblings were passing by a poultry and we decided to branch and check the chickens

We asked for the price and the last price was 7000! Yes 7000 per Chicken. I was amazed because during Easter, early this year, I had bought the same size of chicken for just 3000 and 3500 respectively. Although the ones we priced today were very big and heavy I just wonder how something that cost between 3000 and 3500naira could suddenly sky rocket to 7000 naira per chicken. Who else has noticed this increase.

What's the cost of chicken in your area ??

FuckThaMod:
You see this country, the politicians isn't the problem

chatinent:

SolomonGrundy:

majamajic:


3 months ? How ?

OlujobaSamuel:

Rearing period for broilers is 8weeks to 12weeks.
Most of the birds you see for high price are between 3months to 4months.(12weeks to 16weeks)

OlujobaSamuel:

It's not robbery, have you considered other factors.
What if the person raised loan from bank at about 30% interest rate?
Where will he get the returns from to offset the loan?
I have chickens of ₦3000 to ₦7000. It's all about your pocket and choice.
I bought doc for ₦600, feeds for ₦5200, add drugs and logistics, then factor in the time(3months) in production, and still tell us that we are cheating.
Also note that we all spend in the same economy. Will my profit be sufficient to take me for another 3months to get a new set of birds ready? Will I be able to afford transport, clothing, shelter, feeding, etc with the profit considering hike in various goods and services in the nation?
