I like him because Daniel is so sincere to help, very simple and generous to share his knowledge for others who are interested to start un into poultry business. God bless you! By the way, I'm a Filipino and am interested also to go into this business.
I am poor but used trees on my property to build my broiler leanto worked 7 days a week for a month to buy materials to do my roof and hardware material like what you have I am ready for my chicks to arrive since winter I will keep them in a shed with heat lamp till they start feathers then move them into the leanto for rest of their growing I will process them at 8 weeks clean out the leanto and get ready for my next batch I only have a half acre but doing what I can to have meat and veggies canning and dehydrating you never know when hard times hit better to plan ahead hard times are always easier when not hungry
Thanks so much Dr Daniel l am new to your channel but l have already learned a lot, from your videos and l am planning to do poultry farming, Sindi from South Africa 🇿🇦
Thank you so much sir am still raiseing some amount of money to start my chicken 🐔🐔 farm by the grace of God next year I will start my watching you for sierra Leone 🇸🇱🇸🇱
Thanks so very much for this information indeed am getting there ,I have written down o the information in the videos you have been posting.thanks once again Dr Daniel
This is very true about the aeration in the poultry house. Doc, it is also important to note that, bird population per square meters is of paramount important
This is such great information! I am learning so much from your channel. I will be the next poultry farmer in Gambia and hugely successful because of watching your channel. :)
Watching from Accra, Ghana. Thanks Dr. Daniel. I watched four of your videos this evening. It's been so refreshing as well as learning new things about poultry farm. I started with the deep litter for about six years on a farm a few kilometers away from my home. It was quite difficult to manage and monitor. This resulted in stealing of both eggs and birds. I moved the farm to my house, use battery cages and we are now enjoying poultry farming. Thanks for all the information. Will subscribe.
DOC, that was great advice, chickens need good air flow regardless of the type of breed, just keep them dry and out of strong cold winds and plenty of space and they will do well, the only time my chickens get heat is when the winter when the temps. drop below 0 deg.F. but that is just one way i also give a little more food and put in a water heater so the can get fresh water.
Hello Doc. I like your videos so much. You are a true inspiration. I will like to start a poultry farm and would like u to be my mentor. From Cameroon.
Thanks very much, Dr. Daniel, for sharing this. This is very important especially for us upcoming poultry farmers. I have not yet built my first chicken house on the farm. I am still researching on the construction of such. This information has really come in handy. Kindly consider doing a video on the actual dimensions of a good chicken house for layers. I know you don’t favour caged layers but you can mention how one for cages can also best be made. With love from Katete, Zambia
Excellent advice! I am about to start building a couple new bird houses myself, I have a new batch of baby Silkie chicks and more ready to hatch soon and I just ordered a new big incubator & few Emu eggs & Turkey eggs to hatch. What can I say? You inspired me to expand my farm lol.. If this keeps up I'll have to start my channel on the birds instead of on my Company lol.. and I love what you said about the "step" label btw, family is family and my daughters have different fathers but were raised as sisters, no half or step anything's in my family. We just don't use those words.
I live in the northwest usa. We have wind, rain, storms. Still, you are right! We just have to add a way to close it up during the storms. Very good video, thank you!
I love your chicken house. You have great advice, thank you for your videos. I am not sure but it looked like the panting birds had clipped beaks. Does that contribute to breathing issues also?
Hello Doctor, i'm a student in Denmark. I've have for a long been dreaming of having my own farm. The first goal was to make a sheep farm, but that looked so hard. I'm so gladly that i found your videos, the plan will now be to make a chicken farm in the near future (1-2 year).
Hello Dr. Daniel. I am relatively new here. I want to thank you for your very helpful videos. I have found them very educative. Now let's say you have already made the mistake of say building the chicken house against a wall. What can you do to salvage the situation?
Hello Dr. Daniel. Thank you so much Doc for the free farming skills you're sharing with the world to make the world a better place to live in. You have done your part. Guess the rest is up to us to follow suit. My worry about such open chicken house, how do you handle the burglary risks of theft? It's a common occurrence in African countries. How do you ensure the safety of your birds with all that open mesh? May be welding in some burglar proof iron bars too?
You can build your pen far away from easy access. We place ours 80 t0 90 frets from the farm fate. It can be more than that. I know we manage land, and must people build against the wall or fences, in such case we hope nothing bad happens. But is u have enough space you can build at the middle or far from easy reach.
Hello Daniel. Could you comment on the importance of perches? Also, what of the ground; will a concrete or wooden floor do, or is the "soily" material necessary? And what amount of space do a certain number of birds need?
Perches and soily materials like good litters are good to exhibit their natural behaviors like dust bathing, chase and run, feather clapping, etc. But for commercial purpose concrete ground is preferable with Quality litters like wood shavings, or rice husk. And it's easy to clean too Space Layer: deep litter about 1.50ft^2 cage:0.50ft^
Thank you for ur advise please. Found it very helpful. Could u please mention the measurements of that chicken house u a sitted in and how many birds it can accommodate. Also can you brood day one old chicks in it or not please.
Doc, what if you live in a cold place? I live in a small village that's very cold. the birds I have are doing ok but the openning isn't too open as u explained.
Thanks for your great knowledge,l would like ask a question how does is it take to reach 50% of laying. when they have started laying @19weeks age thanx?
Unfortunately I'm living in northern Nigeria. It's very dangerous these days to even have a farm because of banditry. If you're lucky, bandits will steal your animals and if you're unlucky, they'll kill you or kidnap you and ask for ransom. Most times even after getting the ransom, they still go ahead and kill you. Some time ago people made alot of money with farming in Northern Nigeria but now, we can't. Lots of farms are empty now because nobody wants to get killed
1. Security
2. Spacing
3. Shelter
4. Air flow /Aeration
This is the channel that instantly made me fall even more in love with chicken farming!!
I have many friends from Africa with great beautiful hearts ❤️

Thank you Dr Daniel, I support the request of John, please next time tell us about cages.
Following u from Kigali
Hello John. Did you manage to build your chicken run? I’m thinking to build mine I got land in Zimbabwe. How did it go.
Excellent advice!

Oh yes. All sisters and brothers
Good to hear
Thanks for the videos!..I have been thinking about this!it's better you plant trees in the compound to shelter and cool the place!..
Great
That's the reason they say education is the most important thing before you start a poultry farm project.
Try ignorance
Thank u
Thank you sir
Makes sense airration♥️
I live in the northwest usa. We have wind, rain, storms. Still, you are right! We just have to add a way to close it up during the storms. Very good video, thank you!

Good job
I love your chicken house. You have great advice, thank you for your videos. I am not sure but it looked like the panting birds had clipped beaks. Does that contribute to breathing issues also?
The clipped beaks helps to reduce feather picking, egg breaking and also cannibalism amongst the chicken.
Hi Doc i'm form SA and I would love to know, what are the best books to read when you want to educate yourself about poultry farm?
Just built my second chicken poultry... 🙏🏼

Thanks for this great video but please i haven't watched any vidoe on how to do debecking the birds pls help me out
Doc, what if you live in a cold place? I live in a small village that's very cold. the birds I have are doing ok but the openning isn't too open as u explained.
I like the business
Thanks for your great knowledge,l would like ask a question how does is it take to reach 50% of laying. when they have started laying @19weeks age thanx?
They can start peaking about 25 to 28 weeks depending on the breed
U are right with the airatiom but thefty
I want to do the business too so am here to learn this house is fine for heat time but what about the raining season it look like rain will enter
Can you please recommend a book i can read on poultry farming.
Hey doctor 💟
Unfortunately I'm living in northern Nigeria. It's very dangerous these days to even have a farm because of banditry. If you're lucky, bandits will steal your animals and if you're unlucky, they'll kill you or kidnap you and ask for ransom. Most times even after getting the ransom, they still go ahead and kill you. Some time ago people made alot of money with farming in Northern Nigeria but now, we can't. Lots of farms are empty now because nobody wants to get killed
Hello Dr. Are there some climatic conditions that don't favor chicken thriving....?
