Boost Poultry Profits: Expert Tips to Prevent Chick Deaths & Maximize Growth
- •Poultry farming, while profitable, faces risks like weather and diseases, leading to significant chick mortality.
- •Amit Kumar, a successful poultry farmer, emphasizes proper chick care, especially in winter, by ensuring covered, warm, and hygienic living spaces with adequate ventilation.
- •Maintain specific temperatures for chicks: 35°C in the first week, 30°C in the second, and 25°C in the third week.
- •Restrict entry to chick areas to prevent infections; chicks mature to 2.5 kg by day 38 at 25°C.
- •Sell poultry at 2.5 kg for optimal profit, as the feed-to-weight ratio becomes less efficient beyond this point, increasing potential losses.
