MY NEW SET OF BROILERS FOR BREEDING

Firstly I must say a big thank you to @boscohage for the support and his encouragement for making all this work. While I made sales for the last batch of my birds which I sold December, I booked another batch late December last year which was delivered today, it was late when I was called from the farm I booked the birds for delivery. Some of my Co farmers ask most times why I go to a long distance to get my birds while they are lot of hatchers around me, but my reasons are it is always advisable for your chick to come from a good quality hatchery on a farm with good quality management.

The requirements needed for breeding

Housing

Earlier before their arrival I did a little patching so as to prevent them from predators.

A hygiene house will help you to keep your birds healthy and free from diseases. Which is why my first task is to provide wood shave and saw dust which can last for about a month or two before the arrival of the birds. Making a very good and comfortable house is very important for broiler production.

Keeping the brooder house warm

Temperature management is very important, The first two weeks are always very delicate so temperature needs to be checked at all times in other to make sure these little birds are getting the heat they need to be comfortable.

Use of Anti stress

Once the chicks arrive, the chicks quickly begin exploring their new pen, so I make sure to use Anti stress so as to help minimize stress level after transportation from one location to another.

Feed

After drinking a lot of water, then I give them their feed. There are lots of feeds to start with your birds but I prefer giving my birds with Top feed broiler started for the first three weeks
