  • SRP said on June 9, 2010
    Three members of my family and I are very interested in finding out how to start a cost effective hatchery. Let's say we have one acre to start with in western, Pa. How many eggs and chicks must we sell in order to make a profit and what is the average going rate? What kind of facility can we use that will comfortably fit our stock, but is also cost effective? Is shipping chicks and eggs worth the money? Do you have to sell thousands of birds to make this business profitable enough to make a living on? Starting costs? Thanks for your kind help and input. - SRP

  • Thunderhead said on July 29, 2010
    Why do so many people write that they intend to start a poultry farm, asking for obvious things like 'how many chicken', how much money, etc? Do your own research; for instance, in Holland the current egg-price really sucks! It is hardly a lucrative business considering all different rules, regulations and added costs for veterinarian services. Maybe by delivering meat-chickens (don't know the term for these protein-bombs) you might make a buck or two (with 2000 chickens!). Think about this: a combination of breedingstation, hatchery, and slaughterhouse. This will give you complete control over the process and costs might be lower than having to purchase services. Instead of selling the eggs, you use these to produce your stock. On demand you can take out a percentage of stock into slaughter, the rest just stays 'fresh'(i.e. alive) until needed... Just some thoughts...

    It is a pleasure to see that so many people want to be in poultry business. I bought 50 ha recently and decided to do some poultry farm on 1 ha. I have sojabeans on 10 ha and maize on 20 ha.I have 3,500 layers which are 4 months old now. It is nice to hear people stating here that they want to start with 10,000 or 100,000 chicks. The only advice I have for anyone is to plan a lot of money for their feeds. For example, it depends on the cost of living in every country. If you are in Benin , Ghana , Burkina Faso,or Nigeria , for 3,500 layers, you need at least 14 tones of food per month which is at least $3,000. This is what I spend every month (just for the food). It is around $1.2 per layer per month. Before going into this business, you need to think about the "feeding factor", If you do not have a lot of money, you can start in a small scale. PS: these chicks eat, they eat, be prepared. I am not here to scare anyone, I am just telling the truth. Thanks and good luck.

    Andhra Pradesh, India. I want to start a poultry farm with small investment (5000 Birds), But I don't know anything about farming so please tell me the whole procedure of poultry farming. Thanking you
  • Raghunath expert adviser said on February 28, 2011
    @Ghouse, basically there are 2 types of poultry farming, one is layer and other is for meat. You have to decide what you want. No matter what you opt the breed matters a lot so carefully select your breed, see what proves the best for your location. Peterson chickens and Ross are best breed for meat at the same time Leghorns, Rhode Island Reds, Full Grown are good for eggs, they can produce 250–300 eggs per year. Feed cost is the important factor for poultry farming. You need to spend 60% of money in food for raising poultry, if you manage this well you can make more profit.

    my farm location in rajasthan, india my farm is very small just 1600 s/f i have no idea in poultry so plz give some good idea in farming send me. Thank you
  • Raghunath expert adviser said on March 1, 2011
    @nisar ahmed, 1600 sqft is enough for 100 birds. BTW what is your budget? i can suggest you before starting, you need to know about various things like land, civil construction, equipment require, housing, choosing of best breed bird, feeding cost, total startup cost, how to get loan from bank. current cost of fully equipped 20,000sqft house with watering, brooding and feeding cost around 30-35 lakh. yesterday i wrote above about best breed bird for meat and layer farm and average cost, so please refer to previous comment for more info.

  • James expert adviser said on March 3, 2011
    @OlaoLu Ayodele, Here is some tips for making the shed.
    • For construction Hard rock or murram land is more suitable for poultry shed. You need to make sure you have strong roof and hard flooring.
    • plinth of the shed at least one feet above the outside ground level
    • To avoid entry of rainwater inside the shed you should make the end walls face East-West direction and the side walls face North-South direction.
    • There should be at least 50ft distance between two sheds.
    • Construct of the sheds in such a way that predators will not enter the shed.
