Seven (7) poultry rules for your farm:
Do you have passion for poultry and really wish to stay long in the business? Then, obey these rules!
A.Rule (1)
..."Only order for birds you can conveniently take care of".
This is the most important rule of all.
Instead of stocking 500 birds and then 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 disease outbreaks and high mortality.
B.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 learnt 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.
C.Rule (3)
..."Be vigilant".
The little things you don't take as anything matters.
If you want to succeed in poultry, you must take it as a real 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 round to check if everything is in its place. He take stocks of what he met there and relate with his records yesterday before closing the store.
Don't just open your Pen and start rushing to give your birds feed and water and rush out again. Check around. Watch how they behave when you came in. Check what fell and what is no longer in its place.
D.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 !!
