Do you have passion for poultry and really wish to stay long in the business? then . Obey these rules

• Rule (1)
  Only order for birds you can conveniently take care of this is the most important rule of all

Instead of sticking 500 birds and the struggle to feed them or give them medication. Buy 200 .feed and give them good medication.

Trust me you’ll make more profit than keeping 500 and struggling to feed and give the medication. If this happens. You’ll battle with stunted growth recurrent morbidity or diseases outbreaks and high mortality

• rule (2)

Never borrow money to start poultry business unless you are an expert

Of course. There is no expert in poultry business in fact. We learn everyday every stock you take in will always teach you something different. However. Haven learn from all the different characteristics displayed by each stock. You get to know more and won’t be excited when challenges come. You’ll know how to handle them without much damage

• rule (3)

Be vigilant “.the little thing you don’t take as anything matters if you want to succeed in poultry. You must take it as a really business. Do you know what a business man does every morning when he gets to his store. He pray. Then open the store and go around to check if everything is in its place he take stock of what he met there and relate with his record yesterday before closing the store. Don’t just open your penand start rushing to give your birds feed and water and rush out again. Check around.watch how they behave when you come in .Check what fell and what is no longer in it’s place.

Rule (4)

Never ignore warning signals

Yes I call them warning signals

1. bad smell
2. withdrawal from feed
3. Moodiness
4. Withdrawal from water

There are numerous warning signals I can’t mention here .in fact they are so many.

A farmer must know how his birds behaves when they see him enter the in the morning. How they behave when he serve them feed.he should know the very active terrors and gentle lambs

If you keep these signals. You’ll easily spot when something is not right

Rule (5)
Never change feed indiscriminately
I know you do this .yes.you
When farmer’s talk about changing feed from this to this and that then this all in the name getting better results. I’m always scared for them.
Whether you are changing from a bad feed to a good one. You most be very careful.
Do you know every change in feed affects your bird negatively first before gradually bringing in the results you don’t desire? Most of the time ⏲ you may suffer withdrawal. Coccidiosis, feed wastage. Stree and more

Imagine changing from mash to pellets indiscriminately. Do you know what that means? Have you studied the difference between mash and pelleted feed and the process of digestion?
