No. When chicken lay eggs and out turkeys are ready to sit on eggs, we give them like 40 or 50 chicken eggs to sit on. Turkeys are very good at sitting on eggs and since they have a large body and large wingspan, they are able to hatch very many chicks
The house is well constructed and no predator can go through. The compound is fenced properly and we have male turkeys to protect the chicken so we don't have issues with predators
Our experience is that you vaccinate while the chicks are young, then you have the right numbers that you can feed well and there is enough space to forage, their coop is kept very clean, you have fenced your farm and there is no contact with other chicken and you give them aloe vera, pepper and ginger regularly, then you will hardly use antibiotics. The secret is to prevent diseases rather than treat. The good thing with self sufficiency is that you are keeping the chicken for your own consumption so you keep the numbers you can manage properly. However there are cases where you will find your birds are infected despite taking all the measures and to prevent loosing many birds then you have to use antibiotics.
Am a local chicken farmer I must vaccinate for Newcastle every 4 months. I use aloe vera in their water daily, I use paw paw leaves, ginger, cayenne pepper. I learnt to do synchronized hatching which helps alot
Hi. The mesh doesn't allow rodents through. We clean every other day and it's spacious and we'll ventilated, we only experienced fleas when we had used sawdust in the laying nests, otherwise we don't get fleas at all. I think it helps that the chicken stay out the whole day
Hi. We don't sell sugarcane cuttings. We also got them from the local market. You can reach is on our whatsapp number we agree on how you will get them

@@TarajiEcoFarm thanks nice idea
Number one fan when it comes to local birds
We appreciate you.
At what stage do you deworm them?
Hi. The ginger, aloe vera and pepper helps in deworming. We don't use any meds
How do you handle predators?
The house is well constructed and no predator can go through. The compound is fenced properly and we have male turkeys to protect the chicken so we don't have issues with predators
Sir, do believe local chicken can be treated organically without vaccines and antibiotics?
Same question I have in mind?
Our experience is that you vaccinate while the chicks are young, then you have the right numbers that you can feed well and there is enough space to forage, their coop is kept very clean, you have fenced your farm and there is no contact with other chicken and you give them aloe vera, pepper and ginger regularly, then you will hardly use antibiotics.
