Well, it is the first day as you bring your broilers
and you are wondering whether it will ever get to week 6 where you will be
selling your broilers as you make profits. Certainly, being a farmer requires a
lot of patience considering the fact that it is your money and time that you
have invested in the poultry business. The most important thing that i have
learnt in broiler business is that the first five days is very crucial. Once
these days are over and that you have lost less than 10 chicks then rest
assured that 6 weeks will just be a run in the mills for you.
First five days
To succeed here all you have to be watchful on is heat. Ensure that your poultry house is well ventilated. One thing that you ought to understand is that, cold will NEVER kill your chicks, rather heat will easily kill them due to suffocation. This means that you have to ventilate your house properly as this will be key to succeeding the first five days of bringing in your new flock.
Next 10 days
For the next 10 days, all you have to be doing is ensuring that your chicks feed properly. This will give them energy and also enhance on their growth. Broiler farming is as simple as it sounds, all you have to do is be cautious in terms of ensuring that your flock feed properly and that your vitamins and antibiotics intake is well regulated.
Last 3 weeks
The last three weeks is normally easy for any farmer rearing broilers. This period normally demands for a lot of water and vitamins to enhance on growth. In this period a farmer does not have to worry about heating the poultry house since the chicks are big enough.
Taking care of your broilers during the first few days is the key period that will determine whether you will have a large quantity to sell out or not.
