MISTAKES THAT WILL RUIN YOUR POULTRY FARM.

MISTAKES THAT WILL RUIN YOUR POULTRY FARM.
Just like every other agribusiness venture that fails when the right things are not done, poultry farming business will also fail if some steps are not taken or if some mistakes are made.
Some of the mistakes made during poultry farming could lead to a disaster such as loss of all or almost all your birds.
These could lead to a significant loss to the farmer. If you ask any poultry farmer, they will probably give you a list of things they would have done differently in their poultry farming business.
Every poultry farmer has made mistakes at one point or another, some of them affect your poultry birds a little, but others can lead to your birds getting seriously injured, or even killed.
However, every poultry farming mistake or mismanagement should be avoided completely to ensure maximum profit from your birds .Let us discuss some of these mistakes ;
• Buying birds from dishonest breeders
Buying birds from unknown sources are very risky for many reasons. For one thing, you do not know what you are getting.
The birds may have health issues or carry diseases that may not be apparent at first.
Another reason not to buy birds from unknown sources is to avoid dishonest breeders.
For instance, you might order for broiler chicks and the chick seller or breeder might supply white cockerel to you.
If you are a new farmer you might not know what was sold to you, and the birds won’t grow fast.
While there are a lot of very good breeders with very high-quality birds, there are some that either are not knowledgeable about the birds they raise, or just plain scammers.
Before you stock your farms with poultry make proper research on where to get quality birds.
Remember good, healthy and quality birds will enable you make more profit from your poultry farming business.
When adding birds to your flock, it is a good idea to quarantine (separate them from the main flock for some time) them for a little while before adding them to the rest of your flock.
• Ignoring quality poultry feeds
When your poultry birds are fed properly with quality (balanced), unadulterated feeds the outcome is a boost in production.
This is seen in the fast growth of birds, increase in egg production and general well-being of the bird. That is if the bird is the right breed and is healthy.
Making the mistake of not feeding your birds properly (that is not feeding in time and with poor quality feeds) could lead to a reduction in the growth of birds, egg production which will finally affect profits and income from your birds.
Due to a high cost of producing poultry feeds, some producers have begun adulterating feeds in order to make more profits.
When you feed your birds with adulterated feeds, your poultry birds will be affected badly.
If you purchase feeds, take the time to source from a trustworthy feed producer or company.
Most times the best thing to do is to formulate your own feeds with the ingredients, in order to be certain of what youre feeding your birds.
• Poor hygiene
This is a common mistake. Keeping birds housed in dirty, poorly ventilated, and dark coops can lead to many health issues such as respiratory problems, mite/lice infestations, decreased egg production, and a host of other health issues and diseases.
Make sure to keep poultry house beddings clean, and change it often. Make sure your coop is well ventilated with plenty of air flow.
Light is also important. Do not keep your birds cooped up in a dark coop without natural light.
To do this use dwarf wall system for your poultry house and build the poultry house facing the East-West direction.
• Not choosing the right breed
Believe me not selecting the right breed can affect your poultry farming business seriously.
Poultry birds such as chicken are bred for many different purposes, such as meat and eggs. Before buying your flock, decide why you want to rear chickens. Do you want them for the production of meat or eggs?
Decide carefully on what breed(s) you want. For example, if you want to produce eggs, do not buy a breed that does not lay enough eggs. You have to specifically tell the breeder or chick distributor the breed of birds you want.
Keep climate in mind too, and pick a breed that does well where you live.
