What is Poultry Farming?

Poultry farming refers to the raising of various types of domestic birds commercially to produce meat, eggs, and feathers. 

In this poultry farming for beginners guide, our focus will be on fowl, but we all know it as Chicken.

I know you are probably asking, why choose chicken farming?

Chicken is the most common type of poultry in the world.

They are relatively cheaper and easy to raise in comparison to livestock like cattle or pigs.

As a result, chickens have become prevalent throughout the cuisine of cultures around the world.

Chicken meat and eggs are among the major sources of animal protein many people consume besides snail, pork, beef, and fish

Is poultry farming profitable?

Poultry farming is a very profitable agribusiness.

But you need to know how to manage a poultry farm very well to succeed in this business.

Also, you need to pay attention to the marketing and sales aspects of your business.

Every poultry farmer desires to make good sales after every harvest.

Many families who go into poultry farming do so at a small scale to fulfill the animal nutrition demand for their homes.  

However, large-scale or commercial-scale poultry farming offers an opportunity for poultry farmers to earn a large amount of money. 

If you can run it properly under acceptable methods and conditions conducive to the birds, you will find that poultry farming is a highly profitable business.

Poultry Farming For Beginners

Over time, I have received several questions regarding the issue of starting a poultry farming business. 

My answer has always been the same, “you can’t learn everything about poultry farming in one day.”

Each type of farming business follows specific operational principles for making a good profit. 

When such principles are not carefully followed by the farm management, it results in serious losses for the owners.

Things to Know Before Starting a Poultry Farm?

Whether chicken meat production, egg production, or a combination of the two, you must understand the principles of running a profitable poultry farming business.

So before starting, it is wise to learn some more about the business or intern under a poultry farmer. 

Take some time to investigate why many poultry farmers make good profits from poultry farming while many others fail. 

Many poultry farmers, especially beginners, are no longer in business because they cannot operate their poultry farms properly, thus they lose money. 

Many farmers go into the poultry business without a well-written poultry business plan.

This is very bad for business.

As a poultry farmer, you must have a poultry business plan that will guide your business.

You have to do everything timely and according to a plan.

Writing a poultry business plan is an advanced-level study.

Let’s focus on discussing poultry farming for beginners.

A successful poultry farming business involves a lot of work so it takes passion to pull through. 

But, it is easy when you make your passion hobby, take the pressure off, and have fun.

How to Start Poultry Farming in Nigeria

Before starting a poultry farming business in Nigeria, you need to first go through the steps below.

1. Learn poultry farming from the nearest poultry farm:

Many people who rush to start making a profit from poultry farming after hearing about the business often regret it afterward. 

Poultry farming is a very delicate business and only those who understand the rules succeed.

Breeding day-old chicks, for instance, is not something you can be careless about lest the entire chicks die before you wake up from your slumber.

So, the first thing you do after deciding to go into the business is to start a training course on how to breed chicks. 

Several agencies teach courses on how to succeed in poultry farming.

Preferably, you can enroll or consult a farmer nearest to you, pay a token fee, and he/she will put you through. 

The reason for getting training in poultry farming is to learn the technicalities in the handling of day-old chicks.

As a novice in the business, you must surely get it wrong, leading to the closure of the business.

2. Decide the chicken products to focus on:

There are many business areas to invest in when considering poultry farming business;

1. Broiler chicken for meat 
2. Layer chicken for egg production.
3. Running a hatchery
4. Poultry feed production 
5. Produce poultry farming equipment
6. Chicken processing

Whichever niche you decide to go into, your scale of operation will depend on the amount of money you have.

It also depends on how much you can access from financial institutions before you finally break even in the business.

So if your investment runs into millions of Naira, you can begin by acquiring a plot of land and putting up a structure deemed appropriate for the business.

But for the sake of starting small, producing broiler chicken or focusing on egg production is less expensive.

It still depends on the scale of production though.

You must consult an expert in this area if you do not want to lose money.

3. Select a good poultry farm location:

It is very important to select a very good poultry farm location for your poultry farming venture.

Start by selecting a location that has access to roads, medical facilities, adequate security, power, clean water supply, etc.

You should consider a farm site that is close to the market where you will sell your products.

This does not mean your farm must be in the town or close to residential areas.

Citing a poultry farm in residential areas is restricted by law because poultry farms produce an offensive odor.

The poultry farm can be located slightly far away from the town, where you can access cheaper land and labor.

However, do not set up the farm too far from the town so that transportation costs will not be an issue for you to achieve your goal of targeting the high-density market in the town. 

4. Set up a poultry house for the birds:

After selecting a good location for setting up your poultry farm, construct a good chicken house for your birds. 

Before you start constructing a poultry house, I urge you to visit a few farms near you. 

This will help you to come up with better ideas on what works best for you. Ensure you provide all facilities necessary for running the poultry farm efficiently.

There are different types of poultry houses or chicken coops. 
An ideal poultry house should provide the birds with a comfortable environment. 

It should protect them from harsh weather conditions such as rain, sunshine, wind, pests, and diseases.

There are other considerations when constructing a poultry house but the kind of house you make depends on your resources.

Types of Poultry House

There are three types of poultry housing systems you can use for poultry farming. 

They are Extensive, Semi-intensive, and Intensive poultry housing systems. 

For commercial poultry farming, an intensive poultry housing system is the most convenient. 

You can choose to either raise your birds on a litter floor or in a cage poultry housing system. 

If you are going into broiler farming, then a more preferable poultry housing is the deep litter housing system.

The battery cage type of poultry house is preferable to other types, especially for egg production. 

For a broiler poultry cage, the bird needs about 2.5 square feet of space, while for a layer poultry cage, the bird needs about 4 square feet of space. 

The reason for the confined space is so that the bird does not exhaust so much energy which they should use for increasing body weight.

As an experiment, If you want to raise 1000 broilers, you have to ensure about 500 square feet of space is available. 

The extra 100 square feet of space will serve as walkways and will allow proper lighting and ventilation in the house.

5. Purchase some poultry farming equipment:

Poultry farming equipment makes poultry farming very easy. 

It also helps you to manage your birds properly so that they can eat healthily, drink healthy, and live in a healthy environment. 

The equipment you need to run your poultry business are many and they are all important. 

Some of the essential poultry farming equipment are;

1. Feeders: This is a device you use for supplying feeds to the birds
2. Waterers: You use this device for supplying water to the birds
3. Nests: This is a well-prepared place where chickens lay eggs.
4. Ventilation system: Odour vents, perforated walls, etc. can serve this purpose
5. Cages: These are boxes you provide especially for keeping birds
6. Coops: Just like cages, a chicken coop provides housing for the birds.
7. Incubators: A device to keep eggs warm for hatching.
8. Perches: These are logs you place a little above the floor of the chicken house for the birds to rest.
9. Brooders or heaters: This device provides heat for raising young chicks. 
10. Waste disposal system: This helps with the proper disposal of the waste you produce in your poultry farm.
11. Lighting instruments: This provides light in the poultry house
12. Egg tray: For handling of chicken eggs.

6. Buy starter chicks from a trusted supplier:

After setting up your poultry house and buying the necessary equipment for running the poultry, it’s time to start stocking the farm with chicks.

Do your research properly and purchase quality breeds of chickens from trusted breeders in your area.

Try to avoid the risk of buying unhealthy chicks or chicks already suffering from malnutrition.

Ensure you set the brooder ready before stocking your poultry with the chicks.

If you are a complete beginner without any prior poultry farming experience, try to keep the number of chicks you buy below 500.

7. Employ reliable workers for the poultry farm:

Employing a worker to work on your poultry farm could be a result of any of the following;

1. You are a novice, and you need to engage an experienced farmer to work with you for a fee until you gain all the knowledge you need to be independent.

2. The second reason could be that you are too busy and do not have enough time to manage the poultry farm on your own.

3. You are a large-scale farmer looking to expand your poultry business.

If you are getting workers because of any of the three reasons above, it is understandable.

One person can safely manage a poultry farm with less than 500 birds. 

However, if you plan to expand and raise more birds, you may need to engage some workers to assist in the daily operations of the poultry. 

Just make sure you get the cheapest VALUABLE labor available in your area.

As a beginner, I would recommend that you start small and grow in the business. 

You will appreciate the experience you will gather along the line.

8. Feed the chicks properly:

Like with other livestock farming, feeding is the most important part of the poultry farming business

Poultry feed will take about 70% of your production cost.

Your success in this business depends largely on the quality of feed and the birds’ feeding schedule you choose.

You can decide to produce your feed using ingredients available in the market or purchase processed poultry feeds from the market. 

As a beginner in poultry farming, I will advise you to start with the feeds sold in the market. 

By the time you’ve learned how to prepare feeds, you can then produce some for your birds.

There are different feeds for different poultry farming purposes. 

Just be aware of what you are buying and also consider the age of your birds when buying feeds.

9. Maintain a proper poultry health management program:

There are a lot of unusual reasons that lead to high mortality in a poultry farm therefore the need for proper management of the farm.

Poultry health management is very fundamental for your business success.

You have to ensure a proper medication system is available in your poultry farm. 

This is important because birds are prone to various types of chicken diseases and you have to be proactive to manage them. 

We all know that ‘prevention is better than cure’, therefore, it is wise to always prevent diseases by taking proper care of your birds.

You must vaccinate the birds at the right time.

Make sure that you vaccinate them against Gumboro, Newcastle disease, fowl pox, Coccidiosis, etc.

It is also necessary to always provide them with clean water as well as maintain proper hygiene to keep the birds healthy.

Remember to stock some necessary vaccines and medicine so that you can use them when the need arises.

You can read our article about poultry diseases to learn how to properly manage the health of your chickens.

10. Market and sell your poultry harvests:

The topic of marketing your poultry products is, in fact, the most fundamental thing to know before you start your poultry farming business.

If you can’t sell your poultry products immediately after they are ripe for the market, you will incur losses.

A good marketing strategy is what you need to influence the profit from your poultry business.

Anybody can learn how to grow chicken, but not everybody can sell chicken.

Before you even decide to start a poultry farming business, you must first find out the feasibility of the business.

You must ascertain by carrying out a market analysis to know whether the business will thrive in your location.

A proper market analysis will even help you determine whether you will go for poultry egg production or meat production.

That is why I advise people to always write a poultry business plan that will guide them in the business.

A good strategy is to collect the names and addresses of your potential buyers and inform them that you can supply them with eggs and live chicken.

Do not underestimate the power of social media for your marketing.

I highly recommend you learn how to use the power of social media to grow your poultry business.

You will profit from the knowledge in the long run.

Conclusion

This poultry farming for beginners guide is just the tip of the iceberg of what you will find in poultry farming.

I advise you to always consult with a poultry farmer near you.

Unless you already have prior knowledge of the business, I urge you to start small, gather experience, and expand your poultry business gradually.

Don’t forget to write a poultry business plan that will guide your business decisions.

If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask in the comment section.

I always make time to reply to all your comments.

Frequently Asked Questions about poultry farming for beginners

Which poultry is most profitable?

Layer chicken farming is the most profitable poultry farming business in the long run. The reason is that after selling the eggs, you can still sell the birds and make more profit.

Is there profit in poultry farming?

Poultry farming is one of the fastest-growing and most profitable agri-businesses in the world. However, how much profit you make from his business solely depends on how you operate the farm.

How many bags of feed can 100 broilers consume?

A broiler eats about 4.25 kg of feed from day-old to the end of the 8th week. If you multiply that by 100 birds, that would be (4.25kg X 100) = 425 kg or 17 bags of feed for 8 weeks.
Therefore you need about 4,250kg or 170 bags of feed for 1000 broiler chickens from day-old until the end of the 8th week.

What are the materials needed to start a poultry farm?

To start a successful poultry farm, you need good housing for the birds, feeders, drinkers, heater, laying nest boxes, egg handling equipment, and a good vaccination schedule to keep the birds healthy.

    Wow thanks for the lectures. Well understood. But I have to consult an experience expert as said before for More details.
    If i may ask for a beginners or small farm, without any machine/equipment like; feeder, incubator, brooder etc it’s possible to start up a poultry???

    1. Mbazu Chibuzor says:

      You can get started with makeshift feeders and drinkers.
      For the brooder, you may use charcoal to provide heat for the birds.
      Incubators are not necessary unless you want to hatch some eggs. In most cases, the chickens will hatch their eggs by themselves, especially if you are rearing local chickens and you allow the chickens to breed.

  20. Thanks so much for this, it’s very helpful. I will surely start soonest

      If you want to start any agribusiness, the thing that you can do for yourself is to start with what you have.
      Most agribusinesses are capital intensive especially if you want to build a commercial-scale business.
      So, start with what you have and learn from your mistakes in this small scale.

      Just make sure you factor in the cost of buying feed throughout the period of growing the birds.
      Also, factor in the cost of labour, cage construction, vaccination and vet services etc.
      Above all, make sure you get first-hand training from an expert near you.
      Good luck to you.
