My Love for Broiler Farming
I can hardly explain the joy and peace that rearing broiler birds brings me. The fulfillment is unquantifiable. My journey as a broiler farmer began 10 years ago in Aba, and it was both exciting and highly rewarding. At the time, I managed over 2,000 birds, supplying cold rooms, hotels, eateries, and even barbecuing for banks.
However, relocating to Abuja marked a turning point. Moving from being a landlord with ample space to accommodate 2,000 birds to living in a rented apartment with barely enough room for myself was a challenge. I had to venture into other businesses to survive, shelving my love for broiler farming.
Fast forward to 2021: I finally purchased my own property, but after building, the remaining space wasn’t sufficient to relaunch my dream fully. Still, I held on to my vision. Eventually, I secured another space, built what I could afford, and restarted my broiler farming journey. Today, I am proud to say we have 102 broilers that are two weeks old with zero mortality, and they are thriving!
Lesson of the Day: Hold on to your dreams. They may tarry or face delays, but with determination and persistence, they will eventually come to fulfillment.
Happy New Year!
